    That's classic Khan. He rarely keeps his hands up against incoming punches.

    Algieri caught him with the same punch like 20 times. Luckily for Khan, Algieri had no power.

    So Khan rocks Canelo several times and boxes his ears off, then Canelo figures out his rhythm and times him perfectly and knocks him out cold, EXACTLY how I predicted.:lol:

    Khan fought the best he could against a much bigger fighter, this why this sport has weight classes, at least he got a good pay day from it.

    If Canelo-GGG is not next I will be done watching Canelo

    Chin issues are widespread through all boxing countries.

    He refused the prefight weigh in today. In his last fights his fighting weight was 172-173. Golovkin usually is between 170-172. Their fight night weights are virtually equal. Imo this makes the "I am not a MW line" highly ridicolous and dragging up a WW who is chinny in the first place very dangerous. Canelo should be forced to fight Kovalev to get a taste of his own medicine.

    I like Kahn, and hated to see him lose like this but let's cut the BS.

    This is the same guy who had no problems fighting a smaller and faded Barrera.

    Say no to hypocrisy.

    Someone should tell Kovalev that he heard Canelo insulting his mom over Twitter.

    Well El Pollo won the fight, as he damn well should have, but did nothing to improve his apparent lack of intestinal fortitude. Bully Pollo won the fight but Khan won the fans respect. If only Pollo had a set of Champions cojones
    He wont fight Golovkin in Sept or even Sept 2017. Its really crunch time now Will the WBC do the right thing at last? Will they strip Canelo if he doesn't face GGG next?? Don't count on it They'll have to concoct a Margarito type railroading to get rid of Golovkin because there isn't a 160 pound fighter with a prayer against him neither has a 155 chicken for that matter ROFL

    Saunders would get outboxed fairly easily and possibly KO'd.

    Saunders has a good chin. If he can improve his stamina he could easily outworking Canelo. Canelo lacks the output

    Fair point :good

    Look Khan didn't have to take this fight it was his choice, nobody forced him, he liked the money and the fight but HBO continually giving Canelo a pass for not fighting another middleweight is getting embarrassing.

    Jim Lampley was trying to negotiate a weight with Golovkin at one point tonight.

    They will strip him, they really have no other option now, so I think he drops the belt before he is stripped and moves back to 154 to try and make a fight with Pacquiao.
