    after watching errol spence jr demolish chris algieri last night, does that put into perspective the difficulty amir khan is going to have against canelo alvarez?:good

    khan struggled to contain chris algieri in their fight but errol spence jr took control early and put algieri on the back foot and gave him zero opportunities to get into the fight, finishing him with ease! :good

    i think that khan will start ok but canelo will realise very early that amir doesn't have the strength to hold him off and will turn the screw with him getting khan out of there around the middle rounds:good

    i wish amir the best against canelo but after watching the fight last night it looks more and more that khan should have took the money against kell brook:good:good
     
  2. When are people going to stop believing that khan believes he can win the fight against canelo?

    The fact is this the payday he has been wh*ring himself out for years. Floyd wasn't willing to give it to him, neither manny but canelo has no problem taking out the trash and doing the world a favour and eradicating this filthy radical back out into the desert.

    Spence just showed us all tonight that Khans whole career has been smoke and mirrors. He isn't elite, never has been elite and is a bottom level top 10/15 fighter at 147.

    He's only been calling out for Mayweather and Pacquaio so he can cash out and continue to cruise around in his 17inch amir khans.

    Wonder what khans stance is on his close friend Felix cash for straps strum roiding
    I'm sure he will have something to say on the matter as he usually does
    Wonder if this means their no longer friends

    Khan isn't elite but to say he is 15th in the 147 division is bollox

    I'd pick the following fighters over him.

    1. Pacquaio
    2. Spence
    3. Thurman
    4. Brook
    5. Molina
    6. Porter
    7. Garcia
    8. Bradley.

    I'd pick these fighters to be 50/50 with Khan,

    1. Vargas
    2. Vasquez
    3. Peterson or PEDerson as the Khan fans like to call him.
    4. Guerrerro.

    That's 12 fighters who imo could beat Khan on any given day. He's borderline top 10 at 147. Again just my opinion.

    No but there is a run down town centre.

    The desert he may be referring to is around Halliwell and Daubhill.

    lol people are easily manipulated , khans fought , d alexander algieri and collazo at 147 , the 1st two are 140lb'ers and not great at that ... collazo is nearly a decade out from his drubbin against mosley , war with berto etc , but did give thrurman a decent fight while it lasted . khans biggest weakness is his belief that he hits hard and has a good chin , if he realised speed was his biggest asset and his chin the worse , and fought like he did vs kotelnik all those years ago , hed have a chance but i think hes damaged goods at this point ...an to the top 10 comment , at 147 , garcia kod him , peterson outpointed him ... then u have spence thurman brook porter bradley , and pacman should he fight on ...then the lesser end of the top 10 - 15 , broner , guererro , jessie vargas , ... then factor in , matthyse provodnikov have both stated if they fight will be at welter , terrence crawford and postol both eyeing the big money at 147 i think it is safe to say , khans next move win or lose vs canelo is 154 !

    This is why Khan moved up and will stay at 154 and Brook will move up very soon.

    Mayweather and Pacquiao might have gone but neither Khan or Brook will be number 1 in that division.

    154 is a far safer weight, Liam Smith is a world champion.
