Canelo Gained or lost respect

[dirty fingers]

I didn't lose respect. I had no respect for him in the first place.

[Blue Heffner]

The fact that Canelo will get in the ring weighing 170lbs plus against a natural welterweight is terrible. Absolutely terrible. I understand it's a money fight but cot damn...Amir Khan? I do NOT expect Canelo to fight GGG. I'd be shocked if that fight happens.

No way in hell that fight ever happens. Today is the final proof that Alvarez has no intention of actually preparing to fight a legit bad dude at 160.

Neither.

He's got wins over Trout, Lara, Cotto, Angulo and Kirkland and also fought Mayweather.

Sure, this is a cakewalk, but one fight isn't going to diminish the rest.

Regardless of the outcome if the fight happens, his decision on the Golovkin fight will define Canelo for a lot of people.

The MW champ, who won't fight MW's, cant make Jr MW, fighting a WW.
I just can't get too excited about it.

[IMDAZED]

It wasn't going to be a serious threat regardless. At least with Khan it'll be interesting. Or funny. Maybe gruesome.

[DeadLikeMe]

This one is a push to me. Way out of left field, but acceptable. Perhaps because standards have become Salka levels of low as others have mentioned. Khan tried to back/talk his way into a big fight for the last few years, now he is daring to be great. Things the true stars before him did.

[The Gambler1981]

Canelo wasn't going to fight anyone that was a true threat, so Khan fits that bill.

I have never had a problem with watching Khan getting roughed up, it should be fun for a non-threatening fight they really couldn't do better.

Pretty much. Looking forward to the knockdowns.

Obviously lost. Remember when someone said something about Canelo fighting Rosado and people were ripping it apart? Yeah Rosado is 10x the fight this is. Most people weren't exactly holding out for him to take on a killer before GGG, but they wanted a legit 160lber at or at least near 160. Canelo went the exact opposite direction.

This isn't embarrassing as a Canelo fan, this is downright embarrassing as a fan of the sport of boxing.
