    Canelo has to knock out Khan by the fifth round if he wants to instill any hope of being competitive against the top fighters at 160.

    Yes, Khan is too small and a bit of a mismatch, but Canelo still needs to do his job. A world class fighter annihilates these lower ranked opponents (Pacquiao, Algieri for example), and no, I don't think Khan is world class. I think he's slightly above the level of Chris Algieri. If Canelo struggles in any way shape or form then I think that'll be sign for some worry.

    Canelo will "hurt" his ankle/knee somewhere around the 5th round requiring his corner to stop the fight.

    This will be a good "out" for Canelo and avoid GGG. Oscar will push for the immediate rematch and hope the WBC allows it instead of the enforced mandatory

    unrelated but does anyone here think that Floyd Mayweather will be in attendance for the Khan-Canelo fight?

    any other celebrities like 50 cent or Stephen Curry will show up?

    I say Canelo by KO. He is pretty slow on his feet but I see Khan losing his discipline after being countered by Alvarez in the early rounds. He will then go on to get drawn into exchanges he should avoid and Alvarez superior strength will become more of a factor ending in a 7th stoppage for Alvarez.

    Canelo will make the mistake trying to outbox Khan in the early rounds which he will fail to do, by this time Khan would have the early rounds in the bag..

    Midway Canelo will try to force the fight more, but he will have trouble cutting off the ring, but this is the most dangerous part of the fight for Khan, if he can get past midway pressure then Khan will bring it home in the later rounds as Canelo will start to gas and his workrate will drop..

    Khan via UD or SD

    Im hoping so much that Khan does it, im hoping Khan is very comfortable at the weight cuz if he is then he has a chance. If Canelo is forced into a fast paced fight, and Khan usually does go at a decent pace then the Mexicans stamina issues at 155 may start to show.

    But he is a much better Boxer than Algieri and he didnt seem to struggle landing on Khan in their fight. Khan wont be able to take Canelo,s power if he doesnt fight very smart and he doesnt usually have the concentration or discapline to do that so i have had to click on Alverez KO.

    Wow, lots of support for Khan. I hope he keeps it together. Canelo needs a bit of humble pie:deal

    Let me put it like this people read too much into the Algieri fight, Khan wasnt motivated for that fight because he was meant to win.

    Vs Alexander Khan knew he was in a tough fight so we got a much more focused Khan.

    This is Khan biggest fight of his life Khan will be 100% focused, and if Khan comfortable at this weight then I dont see Canelo hurting Khan if Khan sticks to his gameplan and does not trade with him.. Khan can win this.. He just has to stay focused..
