He has to put on some extra weight and then boil down a bit so only muscle is left. It's not unusual. My main concern is will he be bale to move around with the extra weight for 12 rounds?
Don't see why not its not like he is jumping up to an obscene weight class.
1. Khan is breathing out, compared to Canelo breathing in.
2. The picture is not very sharp, hence abs are completely undefined.
3. Khan is bulking up, and then cutting weight. Easier to turn fat into muscle, then build muscle through eating protein and working out. Khan is using the same method he used for the Collazo fight. He came in light vs Algieri and followed a different plan.
4. Khan will come into the fight at around 161/2 lbs, slightly heavier then he did vs. Alexander, and this extra muscle will be around the trap region, legs, biceps and abs.
fat never turns to muscle..it either stays or burns away
That pic is blurry and doesn't show the abdominal definition which Khan has, which is very comparable to Canelo's abdominal definition. It's a misleading pic. Neither of them are particularly ripped, but in non-blurry reality they both look in a similar decent condition at this point.

As someone who worked as a strength coach from age 21-25, that is the single most ridiculous myth of them all. The amount of people that would say they wanted to bulk up and convert their fat to muscle would genuinely leave me speechless.
He's got at least 30lbs to lose which won't be too difficult given that it's all body fat, he's not having to lose any essential weight.

He'll be 155 on the scales, probably 160+ by fight night. This means he will be 10lb+ over any weight he has been previously in a boxing match, that's a lot to retain speed and stamina and the fluidity of being light on your feet. Khan needs all that to try and pop and move against Canelo.
