The good thing about this fight.

We get to see Amir try to imitate Floyd.

This is the ultimate measure of Amir's abilities as an outfighter

That is going to be hilarious. Even better than Berto trying to do the shoulder roll.

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.

Think Khan is going to get too brave for his own good and good timed.

Canelo won't ever be mistaken for a Meldrick Taylor as far as hand speed goes, but he I won't need to be.

I've said it before, not counting out Khan completely.

But it will be a defining moment when Canelo lands something big on Khan (and he will), which route Khan takes.

My guess, getting stopped, for his own good.

this is why he gets hit with left hooks all the time

Kahns best strategy is to stay outside and keep a steady jab to Canelos face. Althugh Kahn looked sluggish n the Algeri fight, if he is on point for this fight, his speed will be his best defence. Let's face it, there is one thing Canelo doesn't like at all,....and that is getting hit in the face. Mayweather exploited this and Canelo became too gun-shy to commit to any kind of offensive (Maidana went all out in the first fight and while he lost, that looked way better than the scolding and education Canelo received), and when Cotto was able to land to the face, Canelo would withdraw in the same way. He simply can't handle getting hit by top fighters. Kahn has a good chance to win if he keeps canelo covering all the time.

If he tries to imitate Floyd, he should be banned from Boxing.

Mental Health is serious.

I can see Khan winning IF he was as good as his fanboys and media make him out to be...but if we analyze Khan by his actual fight tapes, hes too much of a flawed fighter, based on his style his "fast" feet are useless when he has terrible footwork and his "fast" hands are in the same sinking boat, his hands fall after he shoots a "flurry", especially that right hand. You Khantrrds confuse his "fast" feet with footwork...footwork is about balance and position to get angles. Khan is sort of robotic in a sense that hes predictable. Its attack, defend, attack, defend..Amateurish style in a sense..

all the while Canelo can transition fluidly beyween iffensw and defensive, thats why hes a great counter puncher-he can move into position while shooting a combo while setn up a counter at the same time...and hes doing this against top fighters. Thats why i stress oppsition level in this fight bcuz even if they were the same size Canelos odds to win would be the same.

man, this is going to be a slaughter, I just hope khan recovers well

canelo's punk ass needs to grow a pair for real

Notice he kept that shirt on to hide the bubble gum fillings.
