Ridiculous and cowardly (canelo)

Canelo should be fighting a real top-level 160-pounder in his "preparation fight " previous to GGG, which at this point I think will never happen. If he KOs a much smaller and weaker Khan just like he did Josesito Lopez, what good will that do to prepare himself for a true 160-pounder, and the most powerful puncher in the division at that? It's just ridiculous and cowardly from Canelo, but of course it will be a PPV success because many people will be betting on how many rounds it will take for Canelo to knock Khan out semi-unconscious.

Even if Khan magically wins (quite impossible, but still), there is a rematch clause in the contract.

Well, the sport never ceases to surprise. Khan is going to have his head peeled back like a Pez dispenser.
Also, F you Canelo.

khan is gonna shock the world! down goes canelo!

Imagine if some freak accident happened and he won. AMIR KHAN, lineal middleweight champion of the world!!

Then imagine Amir Khan battering and completely dominating Golovkin into submission. Golovkin quitting on his stool after 8 rounds saying "he was just too fast" through the meat slop of a face. It would be like when Pacman fought ODLH.

This fight doesn't make sense but I'm sure it will sell. I guess Josesito wasn't available for a rematch.

Get ready for Alvarez/Broner in September.

If Canelo wants a small guy why not JMM (no drug tests)

If Canelo wants to show how a cowardly bully he is, why not fight JMM in the latter's good-bye fight? But the basic clause would be "no drug tests allowed whatsoever", so JMM would be free to become the Hulkquez that knocked Manny unconscious with an out-of-nowhere punch.

I would love to see JMM connect a few of those wild punches on cowardly Canelo. If he could knock a much faster Manny down twice, it will be very easy for him to connect hard punches on Canelo and hurt him badly.

Also, JMM already has experience fighting a guy 2-3 divisions heavier than him, remember when he fought Mayweather Jr, the latter being a true welter weight and JMM hardly being a super-lightweight?

Sadly, even though JMM loves to criticize Canelo --and he is right most of the time in his assertions-- I think he is afraid of Canelo's size, because he is old now, over 40 years old and if he got caught with a hard punch by a 25-pound-larger guy, he could end up in the hospital badly injured, and he has a spouse and kids to look out for.

But believe me, PPV wise, Canelo-JMM would be a total success, even more lucrative than a Canelo-Khan fight. In any case, Canelo would still remain as usual, a cowardly bully fighting much smaller guys and still having a tough time KOing them.
