    Lets not forget that a lot of you guys said Maidana would knock Khan out easy but we saw Khan beat a prime Maidana easier than Floyd beat an old, shot Maidana who admitted that his heart hasn't been in boxing since he lost to Khan. He almost retired after that fight years ago and Floyd still had more trouble with that jaded, faded, down-graded version of Marcos.

    Same with Ortiz - Khan knocked him out in 2 rounds as an amatuer with headgear, Floyd took 4 rounds to KO him with a suckerpunch. Same with Judah, although Khan fought him later he still beat him far more impressively than Floyd, he completely shut him out and KOd him in a very easy fight.

    Same thing would happen with Canelo, Khan would beat him more impressively than Floyd if he was able to weight-drain him to 152 like Floyd did. But at full 154 it's a closer fight. Canelo has a size-advantage though, and if can make Khan fight in the pocket enough (which he might) then he can win the fight too.

    It's a good match up but another opponent that Khan and Floyd have in common which Khan could beat more impressively, as he has done for all their common opponents in the past (Maidana, Judah, Ortiz).

        Anyone has a shot at Khan when it comes to knocking him out. Not only Joe Bloggs but motherfuckin' Cinnamon Swirl, he's already wrong for Khan.

        I doubt this fight happens tbh, suicide for Khan. Get Canelo in with GGG. That is the only fight we want with regards to Canelo.

          Maidaina is like some sort of Mongolian Octopus who just flails with his limbs ferociously. Flails of pure ferocity. On the real, he's not as solid or polished as Canelo. Plus Khan spent the last 3 rounds of that fight re-enacting various scenes from musicals like Grease and High School Musical.

              Canelo-Khan? Oh hell, why not.

              Another undersized, hopelessly outgunned (power) handpicked opponent for Canelo. It beats fighting GGG at his (Canelo's) true size, right? He'll walk right through the lightweight Khan..... knock him out..... and get full credit for yet another career-defining fight.

              The only good part about this is seeing Khan not talking for once.

                      It's meant to say the latter but we gotta keep a bit of dignity around here.
