Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Canelo Will Need Perfect Fight To Beat Amir Khan

[trainhard_187]

Canelo will just need to look good in front of the audience. Delahoya already has the score cards made up, its up to Canelo to show the fans his pure dominance.

What gives Canelo the biggest problems?

Guys with foot speed, hand speed, and guys with good to great boxing IQ.

Amir Khan has all those attributes to give Canelo fits.

Add on top of the he has a mastermind in his corner with Virgil Hunter and you have the ingredients to give Canelo all types of problems.

Canelo won't have to have a perfect fight but he will have to have a solid gameplan.

Canelo needs the perfect fight to beat GGG, Canelo doesn't need the perfect fight to beat Khan. Canelo can get away with an average performance and still beat Khan. Khan is one dimensional, once you pick up on his rhythm he doesn't provide a second look.

Wow, this ppv's selling point is about Canelo being the underdog. Very, very mediocre marketing strategy for this fight.
They should have sold it like this:
Canelo, the superstar middleweight kingpin grants an opportunity to the British boxing prodigy, Amir Khan, to test his ring dominance with a more challenging foe.

Oh yeah? What mystical sooth-saying is Hunter going to croon into Amir's ears in the corner?

You probably don't want to buy the PPV on this fight...just sayin.

Nothing would make me happier if Khan SOMEHOW didn't get touched once flush on that little chin and ran rings around Canelo for 12. But I just don't see it happening. Khan is a supreme fighter but at 155 I just can't see him winning. Also the sell is difficult but good luck DLH.

ODLH's guide to promoting;
1) Take obvious facts and reverse them.
2) Serve to media.

Those are 2 and 3, THIS is his number 1 step

ya know its funny how people first hear about this and laugh yet now, they are claiming the bum has a chance whereas he never before. dont get all deluded like the bum. as soon as canelo connects its game over, probably in the first ten seconds. no fackin chance. like anyone, the bum only has a chance if he does not get hit. nothing changes, so many people on here are ****** in by this.

Oscar has been hilarious in this promotion. They having ticket sale issues or something? I can't imagine this PPV will do as well as the Cotto one either. Can't fight too many bs fights when you the face of boxing now. Canelo was doing good for awhile, but Kirkland & Khan are bs fights.
