      He didn't press for it. Late in the fight, he could've ended it

        Canelo has slow feet. He will get a beating from GGG



        I can't wait until GGG smiles at Canelos best shot.
        Great response man. Completely on topic.

          You are entitled to your opinion but you are wrong. You are basing this on the fact that he didn't KO Cotto instead of using your eyes to see the speed and leverage Canelo puts on his punches. He is clearly a hard puncher and he hurt Cotto several times. He damn near took Kirkland's head off and left him out cold. I wonder if Kirkland knows he was KOed by a guy who couldn't punch. Even great punchers don't knock everybody out. GGG is the hardest puncher in the sport of boxing pound for pound but 3 guys you never heard of went the distance with him. No fighter knocks everybody out. I am sure Canelo will flatten Khan. If he fails to do so that would add validity to your opinion that he is not a big puncher. My money is on a KO win for hard puncher Canelo.

            I honestly think that Ca$hnelo didn't want to hurt Cotto. I guess he had too much respect for him to retire him like that.

            Actually made me lose some respect for Ca$hnelo.

              Someone else saw exactly what I saw.

              Nice gesture from Ca$hnelo, but it makes me wonder about him more than I already did. Like when he didn't go all out in the final rounds against Mayweather.

                I don't think he's a big puncher at all. He does have power and is strong but I wouldn't say he's heavy handed and hits hard.

                He still has enough power to get the job done against average fighters though.

                Sadly for Khan, I don't think it takes a real ****er to hurt him.

                  Because unless your name is Floyd Mayweather, not knocking your opponent out does not make you a boring boxer.

                  Saul Alvarez does not have "unparalleled power" as the voice over guy from the cheesy promo said. He does score knockouts against opposition with no chins like Kirkland, so expect one against Amir on Saturday.

                  Let's DO this!

                      yeah, he needs to be more of a killer in there. i'm sure we'll see that tomorrow.
