Defeated world champion Amir Khan has said that he intends to bounce back and regain his place at the top of the light-welterweight division.
The Bolton fighter was defeated by Danny Garcia in Las Vegas on Saturday night and has since been told to consider the future of his career.
However, the 25-year-old is ready to start building back to the top of the boxing world.
Writing an article for his website, Khan said: "Many fighters down the years have bounced back from defeat to prove their greatness and that's exactly what I intend to do.
"I've never shirked any challenge or refused to fight anyone in my division even though it would have been easy for me to do so."
The two-time world champion said that he would take a few weeks off before sitting down with his team to discuss his options.
He finished by saying: "Well done to Danny Garcia on his performance, but I promise that I'll bounce back stronger than ever as I look to regain my spot at the top of the 140lb division."
Garcia's father and trainer has already ruled out the possibility of a rematch with Khan.
