Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: Canelo Fight Tougher Than Mayweather or Pacquiao

[Don Mac]

Remembering how Khan tried to put himself in the picture for a shot at Mayweather .. Well it was cringe embarrassing.
This is the result.

After this loss I see Khan either retiring or possibly looking to fight Cotto

Perhaps because Canelo will ko khan while mayweather and pac safely decision everyone these days. However, both pac and mayweather beat cotto more convincingly and hurt cotto more than Canelo did so who knows. The only thing that's for certain is all 3 can whoop khan.

Canelo beat Cotto more convincingly than Mayweather did. Ask Cotto.

Wonder WHY they both beat Cotto more convincingly? (The "hurt" issue is debatable, I read Cotto was in the hospital a couple of days spitting blood because of those body punches he got vs. Canelo). Also did you forget that Cotto made Floyd bleed in the mouth?

Here's the obvious "why": Cotto traded with both Pacquiao and Floyd, specially with the latter. In fact, Cotto had Floyd backing down all fight and sent him to the ropes a bunch of times.

Yet against Canelo, Cotto started trying to be aggressive, and the very moment he felt the power of Canelo, he rode on his bike for his life and did this for the rest of the fight. His only goal was not to get clean-punched by Canelo, just enough to avoid a knock-out and he accomplished it. I have seen him fight this cowardly only vs. Margarito II and specially vs. Canelo.

If he had stood in front of Canelo, he would have been knocked out, so he should thank God on his knees, that Canelo is pathetic when it comes to stamina issues, leg speed and cutting off the ring.

Yeah, he moved more vs canelo because he was outweighed by more than 20 pounds and Canelo still couldn't put him in any serious trouble despite the fact that cotto despite moving, was still active and throwing punches. The fact that you refer to how he fought Margarito and Canelo as cowardly just shows that you don't know boxing.

sure he did. Only Canelo fans believe that. Just Google the article from Univision titled "Mexico no cree en Saul Canelo alvarez" and you'll see how real Mexicans feel about Canelo and his fight vs cotto. Guys like you just wanna believe Canelo is great, when he's really not.

Good grief. Go buy a pizza and some beer and re-watch the two fights. Afterward, ask yourself how your boy Cotto felt after those two fights. Canelo owned Cotto.

Khan isn't some master boxer. Other than hand speed, he's average. He makes amateur mistakes, and has poor defense.

Floyd would adjust after 3 rounds, and cruise to a UD win.
