Comments Thread For: Khan: Mayweather Showed Me The Blueprint To Beat Canelo

[JWHardin]

Khan will look good for a few rounds, but then, like all of his fights will start to fade. Canelo will catch him and beat the hell out of him.

A lot of folks praise Khan for being so brave. The fact is, that if he gets beat by a welter like Brook, Spence, Porter, or Thurman, his career is over. He has had chances to fight them all, but wanted to prolong his career. All four of them would beat Khan, and Crawford would too. Algieri was a draw imo.
Fighting Canelo is a win/win situation for him. If he gets KO'd he will drop down and say oh well he was too big.

1000000000000000000% correct.

That is exactly what's going on.

I am not arguing that Khan will win, but I am questioning how many of you seem to think that Canelo will destroy Khan. It is true that Khan has many disadvantages in this fight, but just ask yourself, "who has Canelo beat since losing to Floyd?" Angulo who is average at best, Lara which could have easily been scored the other way around, Kirkland who was basically a punching bag after gassing out before the fight started, and Cotto, who is way past his prime. Not that impressive if you ask me.

I'm not sure Khan would beat any of those fighters.... Hell, I would have feared for him against Angulo (would have never happened with the trainer situation but for arguments sake) and Kirkland. I'm about 95% sure Cotto would absolutely crush Khan and Lara is more skilled...

While you can say "who has he beaten since" it actually serves as more reassurance on why Canelo should be a massive (damn near guaranteed ) favorite because Khan was going life and death with guys who were probably lower on the division spectrum than Canelo's opponents in theirs...

Who ever got an insurance policy out on Khan is cashing out that night.

YOu already said Floyd would be an ATG if he beat Hatton and Mosley. He did that. Then when he beat Mosley and Hatton, you deleted the post (just too late after a couple of posters sigged the post)

BWaHAHaahaHAHahaaHAHahaHA!!!

How is it possible you would think Khan is better than Floyd if he beats Canelo?

YOu already said Floyd would be an ATG if he beat Hatton and Mosley. He did that. Then when he beat Mosley and Hatton, you deleted the post (just too late after a couple of posters sigged the post) Khan beating Canelo does not make him an ATG. You are contradicting yourself.

Not only that, you are showing yourself to be slimy and lacking credibility because you have 2 different standards for greatness. Khan would have only one win at 154 while Floyd would have 2, both over men better than Canelo.

Floyd will be an atg. Top 30 one for sure.
Khans one win at 155 would be equal too Floyd's 154 & 152. Because dlh weren't that good. Khan beating prime nelo at 155 is more of a risk. You get praise for risks.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Why? Khan is taking a risk at 155. You get rewarded accordingly. Floyd don't like being disadvantaged in fights? How can you be great then? Don't say d!h is a risk, he was past prime coming off loss to BH. Yes, who is mayorga?

[Derranged]

Floyds way of beating Nelo was getting him green and with the added bonus of CW.

Khan has neither of these. In fact hes getting the prime Nelo. Khan has made it harder for himself. But khan maybe better than Floyd. If he beats Nelo i'd consider khan better than Floyd.

Khan is not better than Floyd and find a new topic to discuss already.

Furthermore, Khan's only chance of surviving is by running around in circles. And I don't mean back-pedaling as if he were on a unicycle, I mean literally running around the ring as fast as he could with his back to Canelo. With any luck Canelo will gas out.

You should be ashamed of yourself that you are willing to contradict yourself and go against your own word just because you dislike a fighter.

YOU put out a list of what you wanted Floyd to do, he did them and now you are just gonna renege on it? You then go on to delete your post as well?

That's fcking pathetic.

Honestly, how can you call yourself a fan of the sport with behavior like that?

... PBF if he can beat Hatton needs guys like Cotto and Mosely. Mosely because PBF needs to beat the man who beat the man. Moselys beaten DLH twice.
ONly then can we talk about PBF being ATG along the SRL and Ali and SRRs of this world.
