    In all of Khans fights he has good speed in the first five rounds. He usually slows down in the second half of a fight so his doing good early against Canelo means little. Even if his chin didn't fail him again, eventually his endurance and focus would have.

        Ok. He's been exposed. So why keep making him relevant by posting about nothing else but him?

          Because he's got no defence a weak chin and Alvarez is a LOT bigger

            Correction.

            Timing + power beats speed + weak defence and chin

              It was easily 4-1 for Khan despite judges scored it for Can. So, Khan's speed was beating him.

                Because he had a lapse in concentration which happens a lot with him and Canelo took advantage. He only needed one shot because he was 180lbs.

                  Khan was peed beating him till the KO came, which was inevitable considering Khans vulnerabilities and Canelo being the much bigger fighter.

                  I don't understand why you always ask such ****** questions.

                    Canelo had good timing, he is also quite fast himself and not only that but he has both power and weight advantage, to end it all Khan has no boxing brain.
