    If Khan does better with more weight on his body and Canelo shows up drained and lethargic in to the fight ? :think

    Chiny bloated up welter Amir Khan stopping Canelo would be the upset of the century.:yep

    It's true in the way that if Khan dies it might be a career ending tragedy for Canelo. They should get Luis Pabon to ref that fight.

    Not a chance... Khans speed is his biggest asset... Beyond that he has nothing Canelo has never seen... after 4 rounds you will see the skill Canelo really posses as he breaks Khan down with accurate counter punching and underrated power shots, turning Khan into a bobble head, swivel bag type opponent as he gets that late TKO, people seem to think is impossible...
    It seems you have fallen into the pre-fight hype..:deal

    Hey Canelo couldn't even drop Cotto and he tried with all his might, Cotto was never even rocked like he was by Judah, Corley or Torres, so you never know, maybe Canelo is such a featherfist he won't even be able to crack that eggshell mandible of Khan after all.

    And Canelo can't crack any of them, good grief it took him 3 rounds to do what Ishida did in 1, that's just sad.:lol:

    Obviously I have since I picked Canelo to win by KO:deal

    But the possibility of it going the distance, wouldn't shock me.

    I don't care about you picking Canelo over Khan... I'm the only one who picked Rios over Velez and Sturm over Chudinov:hey I took major chances and they paid off for me:deal

    Khan is going to win some rounds. I think he'll surprise a lot of people. He might not win, but he'll do fine.

    I think Canelo is struggling to make 155 lbs. His body eventually will collapse.

    Khan has fought FAR more defensively with Virgil, if canelo can't knock out a Roach Khan that's one thing, but if he doesn't stop Khan it just shows how much Virgil has improved him rather than Canelo's power.

    Khan will bother him with his awesome hand speed for a few rounds but eventually, like he did against Maidana he will get tired and I don't think Alvarez will be as forgiving. Think he will spark Khan out in the later rounds.

    Yet Maidana gave Floyd hell and Canelo barely hit him.
