    That seems like cruel and unusual punishment for Khan.

    :patsch PATHETIC !!!

    Canelo will probably out weigh Khan by 25 to 30 lbs.

    O$CAR must be deep into the nose candy again.

    Oscar wants a dead man out of Khan.

    Khan doesn't even fight hard hitting 147lbs fighters. Not a chance he fights Canelo.

    Damn, Oscar really wants to protect Canelo. Luckily Canelo hasn't been one to allow himself to be overprotected in facing softies. A Khan match would be beyond ridiculous.

    You've to be a real sadistic Khan hater to want to see this.

    Canelo is good and durable, but he is not some big puncher. He also lacks a high workrate.
    I'd favor Canelo,but wouldn't be surprised at all if Khan outworked him at 54

    But this fight definitely shouldn't be on a middleweights agenda

    Punches more than hard enough to KO Khan. Khan has no place at 155lbs. It's a silly suggestion by DLH

    Khan has star power, so he needs to be in PPV fights vs Canelo.
    This is a good fight, I'm picking Khan UD.

    Mismatch, Khan has no business facing a big light middle like Canelo. Khan earlier this year said he walks around at 160lbs so Canelo will likely have 15lbs or so on him.

    If Khan was a better defensive fighter or had a better chin it could be an interesting match with Canelo chasing him but once Canelo lands the fight is pretty much over and Canelo being a pretty good counter puncher, will definitely land the kind of shot that ends Khan.

    Very true. Garcia isn't that hard a puncher with a 58% KO ratio and he stopped Khan and even Diaz who is not a big hitter had Khan on the canvas.

    Canelo isn't a huge hitter, he has decent power but is more effective because he is a good counter puncher and the 2 times Khan was stopped it was when he was countered. Khan isn't going the distance if this fight is ever made.

    Canelo is the new Wilder, picking on hopeless opposition.
