    After that stunning finish do you still see Khan coming back with more decent wins? Or do you think his career is over?

    Khan's pretty much the modern day Terry Norris. Blazing speed, great offense with boxing skills but an average defense and cheap China chin.

    No. I hope that he gets cleared in the post fight checks. The back of his head hit the canvas hard. His career won't be over if everything is ok but I don't think that we will see him being competitive in high profile fights again.

    Did ya’ll think Khan looked nervous pre-fight? When he walked into that ring I just had a feeling that he had doubts about himself. He had that glazed over look in his eye. Like “man am I gonna get KTFO again”?

    Though in the first 2 rounds, it looked like Khan was doing his thing and it was Canelo who was out of sorts, before Canelo got going by the 3rd round.

    It’s disappointing in a sense because I felt like Khan could have done better vs Canelo, at the same time he did as well as anyone could expect until he got dropped.

    Everyone other than those in the towns of Bradford and Bolton, and the islamic state of Tower Hamlets predicted this. Oh and I forgot Waki-stan

    You put China on a shelf, and then drop it, it shatters.

    He was just sparked by a non puncher at a catchweight. His career is over.

    :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:patsch
    you are pathetic... he didn't get Ko'd in the 12th round. Alvarez was just warming up... and the first real shot he landed it was Game over. Very embarassing loss.
