Canelo does not hit that hard at all khan might have a chance!

    Just rewatched canelo lay bombs on lopez and lopez did not really look that hurt it took quite a few shots for him to stop him
    hatton
    rodes
    42 year old mosley

    all went the distance

    His only real knockout shot was against a glass chined 154 fighter who was knocked out in round 1 by a feather fisted ishida

    it took him 6 rounds of heavy hitting to stop former 140 lopez

    Canelo is a MW yet he has trouble knocking out welterweights:patsch

    im starting to wonder if khan can survive the full 12 round but his chin is very bad

    Khan at 160 is a beast...don't be surprise if he pulls a Mayorga and let Canelo get a free shot in.

    You don't need to hit that hard to hurt Khan.

    He hits hard enough to ko khan though. That's all that matters in this fight.

    He does hit hard. He is not a KO artist ala GGG. But, he is heavy handed. Lopez is pretty durable. Kirkland doesn't have a great chin. But, it's likely better than Khan's. And Canelo's stoppage of Kirkland was just viscious. If Khan gets countered like that...trust me...it's over.

    Problem is Khan has zero chin, he falls over from light punches usually.

    I disagree with this. he has a bad chin and all but the punches that hurt him would hurt most. his recovery was more ****.

    Prescott shots were massive bombs. Maidana huge bombs.
    Garcias punch would have knocked down most but khan just couldnt recover.

    Canelo hits pretty hard at 155. If he was to fight someone who'd match him in weight on fight night, i.e. Lemieux at 160, it'd be a different story.

    Khan is not Lopez. Mexicans have iron jaws for the most part.
