Amir Khan says he is not being distracted from Friday's bout with American Chris Algieri in New York by a potential fight with Floyd Mayweather.
Khan, 28, said: "I've made that mistake before, when you look past fights, but I ain't looking past this fight.
"There's no point looking at Mayweather because that might never happen."
Algieri, a former WBO light welterweight champion, comes into the bout on the back of his first defeat in 21 fights when he lost a wide unanimous points decision to Pacquiao after being knocked down six times.
