Boxing stunt freakish or fake?

Fast-punching English boxer Amir Khan could never be accused of not spending enough time on the speed ball.

But now he's taken it to a new level, using a plastic bottle, which he skillfully juggles with his knuckles during a dazzling display of speed and coordination.

The video comes as Britain's former two-time welterweight world champion chases Floyd Mayweather for a fight and pay day.

In the wake of Mayweather's win over Manny Pacquiao, Khan claimed he had been given the nod to fight both boxers after attending the Las Vegas bout.

"I spoke to Len Ellerbe, his (Mayweather's) manager, I saw him in the media room and he came over to say 'hi...he's ready when you are'," Khan said recently.

"I think Mayweather's team are wanting the fight. But then - on the other hand - I've even spoken to Manny's team and they said the same thing. (They said), 'Look Amir, I think it'd be good to have the fight between you and Manny next'.

"So, I'm in a position where I could fight either guy but I think Mayweather's the one "I want, because I really believe I have his number."

Whether or not the fight occurs is debatable, much the same as whether this video is real or fake. You be the judge.

Either way, Khan, who has won 30 fights for three losses, may need less time on the speed ball and more time on the weights to knock out Mayweather.
