    Khan really can't do anything like Mayweather did.

    Lots of rumours circulating talking about how Khan is going to mimic Erislandy and Floyd. :think

    I wonder how this will turn out.

    I might actually buy this PPV.

    Damn. :deal

    Khan isnt that skilled but he will try to use speed, he might even look good for a few rounds but the weight will start to tell at some point and sooner or later he will get punched in the mouth then it all starts unraveling.

    Similar to Danny Garcia vs Khan

    Won the first 2 rounds badly, then in the later stages of r3, 1 left hook and everything came crumbling down. :rofl

    Lara looked like an amateur trying to do what Floyd did. It really showed how far ahead Floyd is compared to other defensive fighters.

    Khan's entire schtick has been his speed. I hate how he can trick people into to thinking he's a slick fighter just because he has quick hands. Khan trying to imitate Floyd is going to make Lara's performance look like a masterpiece.

    :lol: that's pretty much how I see it going.

    Khan has said time and time again that he has improved his ring discipline and concentration and then he gets dropped.

    In the heat of battle Khan just reverts to what he always has done, throw punches with his chin hanging out, Canelo is a solid lump who can bang and if Chris Algieri is buzzing you then you shouldn't be fighting at 155 and Khan will find that out the hard way.

    Khan can follow Mayweather's gameplan from the point he gets in the ring to when they touch gloves. That's about it.

    No. Khan doesn't have the skill of Mayweather to completely read and figure out the guy in front of him. Floyd rarely got hit with clean shots and when he did, knew how to protect himself from more damage.

    Khan's going to get blown out here.

    Anyone who buys this garbage fight is going to be let down.

    Floyd knows how to move his head and body...Khan doesn't

    Khan's footwork & holding has improved under Virgil...but that probably won't be enough. Canelo rarely lets you hold him...You can't escape off the ropes against him by trying to hold.

    Canelo looks like he is turning up to box Khan - Could be a bad mistake if 4 rounds in Khan is managing to SOMEHOW outpoint Canelo the counterpuncher which is how he boxes. Then he will have to press Khan like he did Lara and Khan will do ring circles to evade an aggressive Canelo...Problem is Lara has some pop to discourage Canelo somewhat when pressing forward...What will Khan have? 8 rounds in?

    Oh and don't forget it's a better version of Canelo who isn't going a skeleton 152. Canelo looks awfully good in his pre-workouts...light & fast. Even the weight drain might not effect him like Virgil & Khan think it will.

    Meanwhile Khan has just look like a fat 147 pounder.

    Khan is going to show either:

    a) Why he is a mythical boxing creature with a big heart on May 7th
    or
    b) His planking skills.

    It's certainly a better bang for your buck than Pac/Algieri, Pac/Tim, Mayweather/Berto, Mosley/Mayorga or whatever.

    If Khan wins this, this might actually be one of the best wins in boxing history damnit.

    Khan is fighting a much better version of canelo and at his best weight no catch weight

    You think this is a better buy than PAC/Tim???? No way.

    The other fights, including this one, I wouldn't pay a dollar for.

    That's the one thing boxing has figured out. They can sell almost any PPV when most fights should be on HBO/Showtime.

    The MW champ against a blown up WW?? Whose not even the best WW or top 5 WW? Sorry, not worth my $PPV money

    Pac vs Tim 3, a fight we've seen twice before, worth even less than this.

    At least here, we can see excitement

    That fight, we know what was going to happen. It was the most boring **** ever.
