Official Canelo vs. Khan Master Discussion Thread

[elgu]

Pathetic fight. Anyone that defends this move by Canelo is a straight up b#tch. Not only is he not fighting his mandatory and the true middleweight champion, he is dragging a guy two divisions below his. To make things worse Khan has no chin.

All the credit to Khan in fighting a guy that will be two divisions bigger than him on fight night.

The only funny thing here is that Khan is so delusional i bet he really thinks he can win.

Canelo by knockout.

What you got against Khan? He is a two time world champion who has been in with some very recognizable names. He has silly speed, hits hard, and hardly ever loses a round unless he is getting knocked out. He is a bit chinny, but other than that, the guy is a great fighter.

Nothing as he generally gives good value for money in his fights plus he'd have a chance in the extremely unlikely event that he has managed to develop a boxing brain

However, he is not a MW, has done nothing to deserve the fight and is no preparation for a Canelo-GGG fight

IMO, this is a ***** move by Oscar and possible indication that they will attempt to duck GGG

[Greed.]

Canelo would win even if they were the same size. He's constantly improving and is more well-rounded than Khan. He's too strong, too smart and too accurate. He'll catch Khan with something big while he's throwing his arm punch flurries, wobble him and then proceed to finish.

what a absolute horse**** of a matchup and fight.


**** top rank for continuing to feed us this bull****.

Much respect to Khan for going up 8 lbs to face a true warrior in Canelo.

Too bad GGG doesn't have half the balls to up to 168 to face Ward, or 155 to face Canelo.

But GGG will go to 154 to fight Floyd, or 168 to fight Chavez Jr, Froch, Degale, or Ramirez.

GGG, you're a phony.

As much as I hate khan this is nonetheless true. I'm thinking Canelo is gonna fold this guy in half. Considering what Garcia did to him I won't be surprised is he ends up outside the ring. His only hope is to stick and move all night as Canelo isn't the most agreesive fighter.

Ggg needs to bend over and make fights happen no matter what until he is popular enough to call shots. If he continues with his modus operandi that will be a very long time coming.

Anyone know Khan's fight night weight against Algieri?

Im wondering how much of a jump this is gonna be for him.

you a hypocrite, first ginger should be defending his title against ggg at 160, not 155, he definitely shouldn't be fighting a glass jawed 140-147 pounder, you will not be saying the same thing if it was a full-fledged mw like ggg

[FrankieClutch]

AYYEEEEE!!!

[kiaba360]

The sad thing is that this fight might be somewhat competitive. This will be the second straight fight that I root for Canelo, and I hope he shatters Khan's jaw in a thousand pieces. Canelo....FINISH HIM!

He said he was about 156-157 lbs. But was 161-162 lbs against Collazo and Alexander. He's probably going to be giving up about 10 lbs on fight night
