Britain’s Amir Khan knocked out Zab Judah in five rounds in their light-welterweight fight in Las Vegas last night.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 24-year-old Khan, defending his WBA belt, was expected to be stretched by veteran IBF champion Judah.<\/p>\n

But Khan dominated from the opening bell, forcing the fight and landing at will with his jab.<\/p>\n

The end came when Khan landed with a right hand to the body and Judah was unable to make the count.<\/p>\n

The punch looked borderline low, but replays showed it landed on Judah’s belt line and was not a foul blow.<\/p>\n

“He went down and it was above the belt,” Khan, who will now target the winner of September’s clash between Floyd Mayweather and Victor Ortiz, told BBC Radio 5 live.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It was nowhere near below the belt, it was a great shot. Zab’s a great fighter. I respect him a lot.”<\/p>\n

Judah did not agree with his rival’s assessment, claiming:<\/strong> “Everyone in world who saw the fight will see that’s a low blow. I thought he [the referee] was giving me time to get up.<\/p>\n

If you don’t know about King Khan. You can now!<\/strong>
