Comments Thread For: Photos: Amir Khan Putting in Work To Shock Canelo Alvarez

The plan is to complain about unfair scoring after he loses the decision. Khan wins 3 early rounds and something like the 6th, then gets in his 10-speed in reverse for the remainder of the fight. He's too fast to get KO-ed by Canelo.

Too fast is a relative thing. Normally, 1. a slow fighter works the body to take a guys legs away. 2. a bigger fighter can lean and manhandle a guy to wear him down. From looking at Khan's legs, they look soft, that's strike three. He won't outrun Canelo all night.

That second picture ......if Khan throws a cross to Canelo's body, and bends that low and leans in, it's a good uppercut. There is no way thats part of their strategy.

Chemistry is a big part of what makes the trainer and boxer relationship work. We have all seen great trainers simply not work for certain fighters. I think Virgil is great with Andre Ward. However, I have not seen things really click with Kahn up until this point. It hasnt been all bad, but not that same kind of result. Should be interesting though. I strongly favor Canelo in this match, but I am looking forward to seeing how he goes about handling Kahn's style. In my opinion, Kahn gets caught with a strong counter and it leads to the end. Plus Canelos body work is going to be brutal. If Kahn had a hard time with a roided Peterson, Canelo will be all bad for him. Canelo by mid round TKO.

Khan's pride won't let him stay on the outside for the whole fight. Sooner or later he's going to start thinking, "People are gonna think I'm scared, I'll show them his power doesn't bother me." Canelo will eventually land and Khan will do that thing he does, shake his head and pretend he wasn't hurt while his legs go wobbly. He's got heart, but he doesn't have the discipline to fight smart for 12 rounds.

Poor guy. Canelo is gonna knock his head into the front row. Hey, at least he's finally get that FAT paycheck he's been chasing.

Strong heart, but weak chin. Bad combo for boxing.

Khan and his 'deep thought' gaze...

Yeah. It's like "What the fu.. I just got into".
