What gameplan should Khan use to defeat Canelo?

run run run run and yea more running

 

And then hope Canelo gets an heart attack or the judges are paid for :yep

 

Jab. Run. Short combos, and hope Canelo is feeling a little lazy on the night.

 

stick and move /thread

 

None, because he can't execute one due to his limited skillset.

 

a) Poison.
b) Clone himself, but with a few tweaks in the DNA. You know, for an iron jaw.
c) Baseball bat?
d)Glass him before the fight, make Canelo withdraw due to injuries and call it a moral victory

 

Loads of movement, make Canelo chase him, don't do what Khan has done all too often and be the one that instigates every time, that's too predictable.

Make Canelo miss and be the one to counter then get out or clinch to prevent being countered.

Pot shot, don't throw crazy multiple shot combinations that we give Canelo the chance to counter.

Mix up the shots, don't just lead with the jab like he often does, throw in a right lead, work the body as well to slow Canelo down.

If hurt don't be too proud to take a knee or look to survive, leave your pride in the dressing room, it will get you KO'ed.

I think under Hill he's shown some knew skills. He's learned to counter, to use the right lead, to clinch when out of position. Problem is he threw out everything he learned in his last fight and fought like his old self against Algieri. You can teach Khan all the skills he needs but there is no guarantee he'll utilise it because he is one of the dumbest world class fighters out there.

 

Floyd didn't just fight Canelo on the outside. He fought him in the pocket.

Clinching Canelo won't work, because Canelo is too big and strong for him.

 

Try to stay on his back foot , pop off s shots and circle, rinse and repeat..If Canelo gets it tie him up

 

Khans downfall is his defense is terrible and his chin isnt solid. He will outbox Canelo early but when he gets caught and he will get caught it'll be all downhill from there

 

As others have said, stick, move, turn him, lots of lateral movement. The trick with Khan is he wants to get even when you clock him, he loses the game plan. If he can avoid that he may survive to lose a ud. If he gets drawn in like he seems to do, he will be ko'd. I don't think he can win a decision against Canelo. I mean he could, its just that I think the scorecards are already filled out for this fight. He is a powerful promotional companies golden boy so you know the wheels have been greased so to speak. The old saying, " he will need a KO just to get a draw" comes to mind.

 

Keep the fight in the middle of the ring and stay off the ropes. Canelo is only dangerous when he has people up against the ropes. Khan should also go to the body to weaken Canelo in the later rounds. That said he would have to drop Canelo and put on a clinic to even have a chance at getting a decision over Canelo.
