      Khan said he'd fight Floyd or Pacquiao for free. He's already one of the most well-paid boxers in the world with all his sponsorship deals, obviously it's nothing to do with money, it's all about the glory. The kid wants to fight the best, that's the bottom line.

        Do you think he will win?.....or even has a chance?

        How do you think this fight will play out?

          The way I see it, it depends on whether Khan can retain his speed at 155, which I think he should be able to. If so, he should be able to outbox Canelo for the majority of the rounds but Canelo can definitely **** so there is a risk of him changing the course of the fight with his power. So many question marks because of the weight, it's difficult to predict but that actually makes the fight all the more intriguing for me.

          I give Canelo 60-40 shot of winning because it's the first time Khan's fighting above 147 and not only that but he's fighting one of the best fighters at the weight without taking a tune up at the weight class (sort of how JMM jumped up to fight Mayweather). Also, since Canelo is now the Goldenboy cash cow, even if Khan wins the fight, there's a huge probability the judges will rob him. Lot of things going against Khan in this one.

              We all know Khan is the underdog in the fight for the reasons I mentioned. He'll be the underdog with the bookies, and he already said himself he knows he's the underdog. So looks like you've got "being realistic" confused with "getting excuses in". Haters gonna hate I guess.
