AMIR KHAN has vowed to fight on after his brutal knockout by Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez. And the British fighter wants a rematch with WBC welterweight champion Danny Garcia or even a shot at Puerto Rican legend Miguel Cotto. Click Here To Read More]
Pacquaio, Marquez, Ruslan, and rios couldn't stop Bradley, I don't khan can but, I believe Khan would out point Timothy.
11 KO's Vargas dropped him...
His punch resistance went after that Ruslan fight
and he looked like absolute **** in the 3rd fight with Pac, he's just lucky Pac is way past his prime,
He was expected to get KO'd, he wasnt expected to be up on the cards by casuals.
General consensus with casuals was he would be knockedout in one round when the first punch landed. 7 hooks later, 25 body punches, 6 rounds, he was still in there and ahead on most sensible peoples cards....
Now everyone is saying he was "brave", his stock rises because he's not being ridiculed rather applauded.
You can get angry at the truth, but fact of the matter is his stock has risen, he got a big payday and can walk into another big fight with anyone on Haymons roaster, as well as a fight with Brook or a potential fight with Cotto or even Pac.
Profile is everything in this sport, thats why a punchbag like Rios or a **** fighter like Tim Bradley can walk into paydays.
Khan has a lot of choices now.
Please don't reply back with a stupid response, acknowledge i am right and move on mate
Its a real shame that winning a few rounds won't win you a fight...isn't it?
He took 7 Canelo left hooks and 25 body punches, while giving up over 20 lb's in weight
and you say he can't take Bradleys punches?
Khan will destroy Bradley, he'd probably stop him
Pacquaio, Marquez, Ruslan, and rios couldn't stop Bradley, I don't khan can but, I believe Khan would out point Timothy.
Everyone that said Khan took a risk by accepting this fight is stupid. And anyone who says a fighter who got KOed badly stock has risen is also stupid. If so Cotto Stock is sky hi because he went 12 rounds with Canelo.
It is Ridiculous that Khan takes a fight because he wants to be a star, but then states Canelo was 180 and starts making excuses. Khan took the fight know damn well that Canelo was a big guy. Khan took the fight because of the payday and exposure. So to make excuses after a fight makes him look worse than when he came in.
I can not see Khan beating anyone with any kind of power. He is not a star and it was proven again Saturday night. He had always been calling himself one but that chin does not allow him to be. He holds his hands down way to much and his chin out.
Khans stock has risen, even though he lost
Thats how you gain respect, take a risk, win lose or draw, your integrity goes up
Kell Brook could learn something from this.
Anyways out of that list the Bradley fight could be good, some unfinished business there, Garcia rematch.
No it didn't, he just proved that he is and will always be the guy who gets KO'd when he steps up.
Please Khan is done with big fights. The only reason I would watch him as a main event, is to see him get knocked out again. This guy thinks he deserves the world. A Pacquiao fight???? Is he delusional????
WBC Should not have Khan as their number 1 contender he did nothing to warrant it in the first place.
Now with him being sparked out again and lying looking like he was dead he should be made to prove that he can get to 147 strong and comfortably and should not be allowed a title shot until that is proven.
As always with Amir Khan your are left with no evidence just promises .He said how badly he was going to out box Canelo and how much better than Floyd he was going to do it .Khan was behind in the official scoring of the fight at the time of the annihilation.
Khan is simply not good enough and the evidence was lying there sticken on the deck again for the world to see, move on he's already said how comfortable he was at this weight and how strong his chin was and how he would box his ears off, how many more promises does this kid have to break
The Khans are having it off at your expense I wouldn't waste a bean on him and that is a promise .
Good points.
He can't even dance with Algieri properly. That was a competitive fight. I'd say in a rematch Algieri smokes him lol
I hope Khan continues fighting for 10 more years. We'll have the greatest KO compilation in boxing history.

Stop him? No chance. Bradley is tough as hell and Khan's not a puncher.
Bradley-Khan is a good match-up, though, a good battle of skill and ring smarts. So's Khan-Garcia 2 (Khan gets knocked out again), Khan-Broner, Khan-Thurman, Khan-Brook.... As another poster said, he'll likely seek out fights with light hitters just like last time. Khan-Broner could be fun and at 147, AB is unlikely to be able to hurt him.
Bradley's chin aint what it use to be mate
Vargas with 11 Ko's showed us that, that Ruslan fight messed him up for life. Tim at 140 was technically sound, when he moved up to 147 he turned into a brawler, i just don't get it
I think Bradley is mentally shot, the trainer change also hasn't helped, he's actually regressed as we saw in the 3rd fight with Pacman.
I got Khan beating him, or even stopping him TKO. It'll be a lot like the Devon fight
Broner has some pop, he could land a money punch on Khan, but thats all he has to offer, very limited boxer, with no footwork. However his power can change a fight.
He took 7 Canelo left hooks and 25 body punches, while giving up over 20 lb's in weight
and you say he can't take Bradleys punches?
Khan will destroy Bradley, he'd probably stop him
He had 4 rounds in the bank, he was fighting well but the inevitable was always going to come. Brook really needs to make a name for himself and start fighting names before he calls out Khan, I can see Khan wanting another big fight before the end of the year. Bradley would be great to watch.2 of the judges had Canelo ahead. So, no, 4 rounds were not 'in the bank'.

Khan will comeback the same way he did the last time he was ko'd. Take easy fights against light punchers until he can get a payday. He will then get knocked out again.
as for now after that brutal KO he should give algieri a rematch.
Yeah at this point he hasn't really proven his better than Algieri lol
That's his league. I won't be surprised if Algieri smokes him in a rematch. Khan has been exposed as a B class level. Always is always will be.
It's as if he won, the delusions continue :lol1:
You know dudes will be blowing up Khan's phone now more than they already were. They want a piece of that glASS.
You think casuals like khan more for winning some rounds? Lol
They respect his heart and balls
Its not that he won rounds, it's also he was the smaller man in there, with all the disadvantages
Before the fight i told you this was a lose lose for Canelo and a win win for Khan. Canelo was not going to get any credit, whereas Khan as long as he made it past 3 rounds was going to be looked at favorably, even by getting knocked-out
Whats happened as a result of this fight is
1)Pressure is on Canelo to fight GGG, HBO, Hunter, social media, mainstream media, all are now pushing to the GGG fight. They basically made Canelo look like a bully who picks on smaller men, and picked apart his resume
2) Khan walks into another payday of his choosing, he's an exciting fighter, and the casuals love him.
You can spin it anyway you want it, you can deny the facts, but this is how perception is right now.
Khan stock rises, had he lost to Garcia again, his stock would have fallen and he would not have walked into another payday. With Canelo he had nothing to lose and everything to gain for every second he was in that ring.
