The shot Prescott hit him with, Danny Garcia, Diaz they was all really wide left hooks.
You'd of thought the guy with a crisper more compact hook, more accurate, better timing would have the better chance of landing but its the wide, crazy **** that tends to prove most effective against him. Fighters who pressure and throw with him and catch him mid flurry. Canelo is more a counterpuncher who waits until you're done throwing before returning fire.
He boxes well against more calculated fighters.
Common sense tells me that Canelo lands and its all she wrote but there is just something there that says I've seen crazier **** happen than Khan outboxing him and making him look very lethargic.
I think most expect Khan to trouble him early what if that big shot don't come? Man I must be ****ing crazy. I think I must be trying to convince myself or something.
But that's just not who Khan is. He's a flawed fighter that constantly pays for his mistakes. And these mistakes prove to be fatal against fighters with the ability to capitalize on them.

Not reading through the whole thread, but I agree with Golovkin to an extent. The hand speed Khan possesses will likely mean nothing compared to the short, crisp counters Canelo loves to wait on. Where others rail on his gas tank or **** on him for not fighting "Mexican" enough, I see a guy who realized the importance of patience and being economical with his punches by 22 already.
