Why couldn't Khan beat Canelo?

Because Canelo's ring IQ trumps any speed advantage Khan or percieved skill had over him.

Canelo slowed him down and laid him out.

Floyd'd ring IQ was still in another stratosphere to Canelo's

 

Gee, maybe because Khan's chin is made out of grandma's china which was already broken, now scotch-taped together and ready to fly apart in a stiff breeze?

If Khan had a great chin he'd probably be an ATG.

 

Not really. Clenelo's fighting at 175 and is at his absolute best right now. We're seeing the best version of him 9 years later.

Floyd's win over Clenelo hasn't aged well because 160, 168, and 175 Clenelo would violently KO Floyd in a completely one-sided fight. That's how green and drained Clenelo was. You'd have a case if Clenelo never moved past 154.

 

Absolutely, Khan get's hurt more easily than any top level fighter I have ever seen.

 

People cant get over how easily Floyd dominated Canelo. Khan was dominating too, if he had a better chin that would have been loss number 2 for Canelo and then 2 losses to GGG.

Canelo could easily have had 4 losses on his record, instead of the 3 we all know he has.

 

as if there was any doubt

Khan is unteachable

 

Of course! A 175 pound Canelo would beat a 154 Floyd, that ain't saying much. What kind of logic is that? IMO Canelo is not that much better than the version that got beat by Floyd. He got a little more defensive, not the big deal the haters trying to make it out to be.

 

you realize Floyd landed more punches on Canelo than GGG in either fight and more than any Canelo opponent or Floyd opponent ever. Maybe that might have something to do with it, if you actually pay attention and don’t just listen to narrative in almost all of Floyd fights that’s the case if he turned it up just slightly he could of got the stoppage.

 

Khan was/is too predictable. As Angel Garcia once said: One-two, roll out.

 

Khan was outboxing Canelo before Nelo landed a lucky punch.

 

I'm not sure luck had much to do with it. They could fight 100x and Canelo would probably spark him every time.

 

Khan was always easy to hit and got stopped a few times, once by a lightweight in the 1s round.
