    Boxing is a sinking and corrupt ship anyways. The ship is going down as it is.

    Khan's just getting his before it hits the bottom of the sea.

    After this fight Khan can STILL make a fortune fighting Brook.

    If he survives.

    Tbf credit for Khan is right. Canelo deserves to be slammed for this.

    he's an arrogant idiot, who thinks he deserves to fight the best while ducking the likes of Brook

    Clearly interested in the pay day. Khan is going to get worked.

    Khans jaw seems a bit less glassy since he started moving up in weight, it actually is a real thing that some fighters have no chin because they drain to hard.

    But yeah, props to Khan. Gotta admire the guts he has.

    That being said, I find it hard to see Canelo with anything other than contempt at the moment.. and hope Khan KHTFO because it would be hilarious.

    He's fought all feather fisted WW's lolz.

    Come on man, he was pretty much doing the chicken dance in the first round after Algieri (A very feather fisted fighter) nailed him.

    He's going to get destroyed, but I do want him to win. :lol:

    Big Kudos to Amir Khan for taking this fight I thinks he's had far too much flak over the years This is his big chance to shine & prove his critics wrong
    Although he has a daunting task fighting an opponent that will probably out weigh him by 25 pounds on fight night

    Big Jeers to El Pollo Canelo Alvarez who once again proves he really deserves that El Pollo tag. Too chicken to fight someone his own size
    I'll be rooting for Khan all the way

    Khan is on a mission! He will 120-108 Canelo then fight winner of Brad-Pac in the Fall then winner of Kov-Ward in 2017.

    Lol at fans who say Khan ducks punchers, then he moves up a weight and faces one. Who is Brook facing again? Bizier... LOL.
    Khan was always where the money is, he's a fighter who wants to have a legacy and face the biggest challenges like Mayweather etc and now Canelo.
    A Brook fight would always pose a high risk with little reward, this fight he can retire on alot of money if he loses and look back at a good career - and if he wins... WOW.
    Great move by Khan and one which should end people calling him a coward, he wants to make the biggest money at the end of his career and get out of the game. You can't blame him for that.

    Well Canelo is a LHW fighting WW. Great news indeed. Cherry picking at its best. Who next for Canelo? Leo Santa Cruz?
