Comments Thread For: Kellerman: A lot Has To Go Right For Amir Khan To Beat Canelo

[-PBP-]

Toney was the champ at 168, and Roy Jones moved up from 160 to 168 to challenge Toney. Same story here, Canelo is the champ at 155 (lmao), and Amir Khan is moving up from 147 to 155 to challenge him.

Toney was the bigger, flat footed counter puncher, and so is Canelo. Khan is the smaller, more athletic fighter, and so was Roy Jones.

Roy Jones had super fast hands, and so does Khan.

There are obvious differences, but there are also obvious similarities between the two bouts. Kellerman didn't say anything wrong here, get off the bandwagon and use your own brain for a change

Lol. Nice attempt. Still ****ing stipid. You get an A for effort tho.

Canelo is a puss. This is the guy who publicly complained that he asked for a 156 catchweight for the Miguel Cotto bout but that Cotto insisted on 155, then afterwards, after complaining about 155 and demanding 156, went on to demand that GGG come down to the same 155 that he complained about for Cotto.

Asking for bigger catchweights against smaller opponents and smaller catchweights against bigger opponents? Like wtf, who can't tell that this guy is an obvious *****?
.

That's true about Canelo, but what about GGG?

Using that logic he is a coward too.

He's willing to go down to 154 to fight Floyd and then rehydrate to 15-20 pounds heavier than his opponent, but he's NOT willing to go down to 155 for Canelo, so they both rehydrate 15-20 pounds heavier. That is being a "puss" as well. If he was such a brave and confident guy, he would say "I can go down to 155 and beat this punk any day" but clearly he is afraid to take on that challenge, just the same as Canelo is afraid of taking him on at 160.

It seems to me that all you have to do to be a boxing analyst is state the obvious.

I could be an analyst.

No he's not. Neither Jones or Toney fought at 155, 164, or 172. They moved up full weight classes and dethroned whoever was there. Jones even jumped two weight classes to fight for a heavyweight title, being outweight by his opponent by more than 30 pounds or something.

Canelo is a puss. He will never reach those levels. This is the guy who publicly complained that he asked for a 156 catchweight for the Miguel Cotto bout but that Cotto insisted on 155, then afterwards, after complaining about 155 and demanding 156, went on to demand that GGG come down to the same 155 that he complained about for Cotto.

Asking for bigger catchweights against smaller opponents and smaller catchweights against bigger opponents? Like wtf, who can't tell that this guy is an obvious *****?

Just the fact that he only fights at catchweights is embarassing enough without going into the details.

Welcome to the new era of boxing, as frustrating as it is. Its here.

Heres my opinion and it seems to make sense since I seen a lot others comment the same way. If GGG fought Floyd at 154 thats fine, whether its for Floyds titles at the time or not, he was willing to fight Floyd at that weight. With Canelo its different, GGG is fighting for the 160 pound title, now if there was no title then someone could argue that point on willing to fight Floyd at 54 and not Canelo at 55. Maybe im one of the few, but I cant stand catchweights and GGG having to fight Canelo at 155 for the 160 title is ridiculous me.

Kellerman and other casuals will be in for a shock may 7th, at the elite level the boxer always beats the puncher

Spoken like a true casual.
