    Quigley spared with Lemieux and looked good doing it. That is what both Quigley and Lemieux's team are saying.

    I'm watching the fight now.

    Man, Khan throws the sloppiest combinations I've ever seen. He looks like he's having a seizure when he throws.

    I'm not sure why people are surprised by how this fight panned out, I fully expected Khan to be faster, slicker and to trouble Canelo with speed but not power. The only thing that shocked me was that Canelo closed the distance much quicker than I thought he would and got Khan in 6 when I thought maybe 8 or 9.

    Khan did what Khan does, he got sloppy after being relatively dominant for a few rounds. You could hear Hill telling Khan to keep his left up and out as a preventer against something roundhouse coming from Canelos right. Look at the KO, Khans got sloppy and his left is down by his hip leaving him exposed.

    It ended how I thought it would, it was a huge ask to expect Khan to stay fast and elusive for 12 rounds, you just knew that a quality fighter like Canelo would connect at some point and there was only one result possible after that.
