Could Prime Pac have moved up to beat Canelo or Golovkin?

[IceTrayDaGang]

Definitely was not doing winning all those rounds. I was ringside for that fight in the T Mobile Arena.

In fact I think Canelo was ahead on the cards if I'm not mistaken.

good thing you were there as a spectator and not there to judge the fight.

Yes, Amir Khan was winning the early rounds against Canelo Alvarez, outboxing him with speed and movement in the first two to three rounds, though it was the beginning of a pattern where Canelo would slowly cut off the ring and wear Khan down. Khan's performance was impressive enough that two of the three judges had him ahead on their scorecards before Canelo landed a decisive knockout punch in the sixth round

Well firstly you're wrong because two of the three judges had Canelo ahead; 49–46 and 48–47.

Secondly, the one judge who had Khan ahead had him ahead by 48-47.

So none of the above supports your position that "Khan won all the rounds" so no it's lucky YOU weren't the judge and only a spectator

I had it 48-47 Canelo at the time of the stoppage, so if anything my card co-aligns with the judges

Either way it's neither here nor there because Khan definitely absolutely did not "win all those rounds".

• Scorecards:
  On two of the three ringside judges' scorecards, Khan was ahead after three rounds.

My man, the scorecards were;

49-46 Canelo
48-47 Canelo
48-47 Khan

That was the 3 scorecards at the time of the KO (Round 6).

Doubt it, to be effective Pac has to get off about 80 punches per rd, he is not a master boxer so he is going to be vulnerable to punches coming back at him while throwing combos. His foot speed will keep him out of danger for a little while but overall defensively he is average.

HORN (CPGW), a part time special ed teacher, bullied and robbed him in broad daylight
JMM set up a brief meeting with him and Allah

Special 8 Ball pissed itself with this "what if" scenario and so did I

[Gary Coleman]

yeah but he was winning all those rounds until the ko.. which is why i said pac is not khan. if khan was able to do that until getting caught in the 6th round, prime pac would tatttoo canelo's face to a late tko or decision.

Khan was NOT "winning all those rounds until the KO."

People have really warped perceptions of how that fight went.

[NihonJim]

Canelo yes.

Prime pacs speed and power was ridiculous

[Damn Wicked]

Golovkin would have killed Pac. Canelo at 154 might have too. Pac had a really brutal fight with Margarito. He said that was his hardest fight and toughest opponent. Both Canelo and Golovkin were sturdier, craftier, smarter, faster, bigger and more powerful than Margarito.

[ELPacman]

I don't think so. If Margarito was any sample of what facing a bigger guy without skill was, you can imagine more so in facing a Canelo or even GGG. Pac typically mentioned Margarito was one of his hardest fights ever and I believe him. He couldn't stay still the entire 12rds to allow Margarito to plant his feet and throw his big power shots. Even without bricks, he was still a big dude for the weight and can punch. It showed what happened when Pac stayed on the ropes too long and ate a body shot from him.
