(Reuters) - Challenger Amir Khan readily accepts that he is a huge underdog for his WBC middleweight title clash with Mexican Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in Las Vegas on Saturday but has promised to give his much bigger opponent "a boxing lesson".

Englishman Khan has moved up two weight divisions to take on the flame-haired Mexican, whose only loss in 48 professional fights was to undefeated American Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2013.
