    Khan usually starts out well, but then fades as the fight goes on.................I had Khan winning on points, but knew he would not last. Khan is a smaller fight, a natural 140 lb. fight who had to eat tons of food to make 147, but 154 was way too much.............

    Golovkin is a 4-1 favorite................to beat Alvarez...............

    My score
    Round 1 Khan
    Round 2 Khan
    Round 3 Khan (extremely close, I think this is the common "swing" round among those who scored.)
    Round 4 Canelo
    Round 5 Canelo

    You think Khan is still a 140 lbs fighter?

    Kahn himself said he was a natural 147 lbr after the fight but I guess disgruntled ESBers must know better.:conf


    A couple of things after watching the replay.

    The fight was very competitive and a lot better than expected.
    Hill took the loss like a whiny *****.
    What the hell were those tatoos on Canelo's calves?:blood

    It was kinesio tape, which athletes use to reduce or prevent cramping, yet another sign he's clearly outgrown LMW.
