He claimed he was using the Mayweather blueprint and will use his speed, experience, and intelligence in the fight. So why did he weight in at the 155 contractual limit? Why wouldn't Khan come in lighter? Floyd weighed in at 150 his speed advantage completely outclassed Alvarez. Khan a welter, looking pudgy at the weigh in, opted to go all the way up to 155 the heaviest he's ever been.Dumb move in my opinion, should of let Saul be the only cement foot fighter in the ring tonight.
Khan also said he was 3 times stronger and 1½ times faster at the weight, and then later he stated that his punches probably wouldn't even bother Canelo. He also stated that if he won he would not back away from the Golovkin fight but later he said he had no interest at staying at the weight win or lose. Everything Khan says should be taken with a grain of salt.
Thats realy no difference from ODHL, Canelo and Floyd. What they say and their opinions completely depends on what type of media they're talking to at the time.
Because Khan isn't elite and anywhere as awesome to be able to come in super light against a much bigger opponent. Example: Pacquiao weighed in at 144 for Margarito and rehydrated 4 pounds to 148. Margarito weighed in at 150 and rehydrated to 165.
So he'll be even heavier and slower during the fight, Khan will be KO'd, he's fighting Canelo's fight not his
Indeed. Khan routinely contradicts himself, thus making himself sound -- and appear -- foolish in the process. :yep It'll only take Canelo to catch him and land big to badly hurt Khan. And given that Khan came in at 155, won't that compromise his speed and movement? The sawn-off Blake Griffin wins by TKO, maybe in or around the 7th. But if Khan and his ego get brave / foolhardy, and try to stand and trade, Canelo could end it a whole lot sooner.
against collazo Khan weighed 161 and he was 160 for Alexander.... Why would he cut below the limit of 155lbs???? You think coming in at 153 makes him "faster" if he's rehydrating up to 160lbs + anyways?? atsch
if he came in at 150 surely he would just be dehydrating him self to make the weight why not make the weight comfortably ?
I don't think so, and you all take this dehydrated, drained stuff too far...he should of came in lighter and in better shape period
