Amir Khan recently announced he has picked Chris Algieri as his opponent for his next fight, but the Briton clarified that the showdown is not yet set in stone as they are also in talks with Adrien Broner.

Khan, who holds a 30-3 record with 19 knockout victories, said last week that Algieri will likely be his opponent on May 30, but he clarified to BoxingScene that no deal has been finalized at this point.

The Briton said that Algieri is just one of the fighters they are considering after not getting a shot against his top options, including reigning World Boxing Council middleweight champion Miguel Cotto.

Khan also made it no secret that he wanted to face Manny Pacquiao or Floyd Mayweather Jr. before the two superstars agreed to face each other on May 2 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

"Algieri has not been confirmed. He is one of the guys that we're looking at," Khan said. "Because basically I wanted the Miguel Cotto fight, but now he's with Roc Nation and he already has a date on June 6th. I can't fight in June because of Ramadan. I can't fight and then go straight into Ramadan."

Aside from Algieri, Khan revealed that Broner is also on his radar. He confirmed that he recently talked to Broner, but the former World Boxing Association welterweight champion wants a catchweight that's less than 147lbs. The Bolton, England native said he would love to face Broner, but only if the former champion agrees to face him at 147.

"We said that a fight between us could be made so why not get it made," Khan said. "He said he was up for it, but then what made me realize that maybe he's not is when he said 'I can't do the fight at 147, let's do it at 144 or 145.' I thought that's strange, because he's calling me out and saying 147 -- then why not stick to 147."

Broner, who is coming off a unanimous decision win against John Molina, called Khan out through an Instagram post last month. He said that he has high respect for Virgil Hunter, Khan's trainer, but he is very open to facing the Briton this year.

"No disrespect to Virgil hunter he is a great coach and I got endless love for him but me and Amir khan can fight at the end of this month," wrote Broner, who holds a 30-1 record with 22 knockout victories. "I haven't taken any punishment I'm back in the gym and ready to make a fool out of anybody."
