    That showes he was irresponsible and undertrained, no arguments there. Just like De la Hoya, he fought 3 lbs below his previous fight. Neither Pacquaio nor Cotto should get credit for their wins over De la Hoya and Geale.

    And still, Cotto-Geale is a bad comprasion for Canelo-Khan. Cotto is a super welterweigt now, has been so for the last 5 years. Khan has no business above 147.

    why does khan have no business above 147? he has the size and frame to put the weight on and carry it well.....i mean aside from his obvious lack of chin....but cotto was battered by pac at 145 and dropped by torres at 140....quit against bricks in gloves at 147.......

    cotto is still small even as a smw...guy is a prime 140-147 guy...hes basically teh same size as pac

    Canelo has never fought above 155. Khan has never fought above 147. That is only 8 pound difference.

    In boxing there have been several high profile fights where one fighter had to move up 5-13 pounds... It happens all the time.

    The only major difference here is that the WBC Joke has sanctioned all these catchweight fights.... The blame is on the enforcers not the players.

    You GGG fanboys are overly emotional.

    There are more skills and talent in Amir Khans nut sack than in GGG's last 5 opponents combined.

    Khan is a mediocre 147 fighter with a glass chin. That's all that needs to be said. I wouldn't even call Canelo a JMW since he can't even make 154, so it's a complete mismatch.

    The Ouma fight was for the .....VACANT ....WBA Middleweight title.

    Neither guy was champ.

    Ouma was a career Jr MW that was a shell of his former self when he fought Golovkin.

    Shot to hell Ouma is Gigi's toughest fight to date.:lol:

    As usual you show your idiocy, well done :good You cant see how fighting a guy at middleweight who has never been above welter before, isnt the same as fighting champions from one weightclass down. Congrats. That's not to mention that when Golovkin fought them, he wasn't the most popular fighter in his surrounding weightclasses who could fight anyone he wants and is considered the lineal middleweight champion.

    But ya other then that totally the same. :patsch

    Rosado was big 154 pounder, probably weighted very close what GGG weighted at fight night..

    In short, Khan vs Canelo is a joke.
