    and stunned and middleweight. I rewatched the fight, and I will give Canelo credit for his subtle adjustment once he decided to setup the big punch instead of just forcing it.

    But that lead right hand that land on him in the first round would of dropped him if was anyone 160 with pop! GGG might have ended him early if that was him that through it


    Very curious on why Khan didn't throw it again!


    khan makes it hard to bet against him because he's so spectacular early. Danny Garcia might of went to sleep if that was him in their receiving that lead right. If he survived it , he would of went on to catch Khan slipping of course

    Thing of beauty. Like the Salita KO.

    Very few fighters can throw a 1,2 like that from such a distance.

    He didn't throw it again as it would have been very hard to evade the counter bodyshots that Canelo had started to get going...

    :good
    If you look at the knockout when Khan was on his back his rib cage was starting to get chapped from the gloves connecting and rubbing. Canelo was being consistent to those ribs and Khan started to hurt.

    Khan is not a 160 lb. fighter, he is a 147 lb. fighter and a natural 140 lb. fighter..............

    Khan was grimacing from round 3/4 onwards when Canelo was landing a bodyshot.

    He's not a natural 140 anymore. He's outgrown it.
