Everyone else is confident about that too.

I wish Khan had a little wit about himself. Canelo is a perfect straight man, a foil for a pun, but Khan is just self absorbed. He can't see getting into somebody else's head for fooling around in his own.

[A-Wolf]

I don't think Khan's feet are as fast as they once were. Easy to understand why Canelo isn't concerned. They've been watching the tapes (as we already know).

[TRTboy]

He needs to ran khan over and use his size and power and not fool around and try to match khans speed because thats a battle he wont win with khan.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Khan is an easy job for Canelo. And Canelo would be an easy job for Manny.

Khan is very fast but plenty of fighters have been able to deal with it. Peterson, Garcia, Diaz, even Algieri to an extent was ok with it. He's not that intelligent with his speed and that's his downfall.

[aAgger]

He shouldn't try to outbox him or match his speed, but just do what Peterson and Algieri did and use his size and power to keep coming forward, pressuring him, and eventually get the KO. Khan is good against boxers, but struggles against pressure-fighters. That's not Canelo's usual style, but that's the most effective way of getting the KO, because Khan will be running away the whole fight.

Yea im sure you can Canelo....Garcia stopped him in 4 rounds
