    With everyone running scared at 147, including Mayweather and Pacquiao themselves, Khan was forced to go up to middleweight and take on Canelo who was purportedly weighing in above 175 on fight night. We saw Khan outbox Canelo in every round until a lucky power punch landed from the much heavier man and Khan was unable to recover before the 10 count concluded.

    The question we need to carefully examine at this point is whether Khan should rightfully retain his status as number 1 at 147 or does the loss against cruiserweight Canelo affect Khan's supremacy at welterweight?
    Khan was never a top dog at WW.

      What a wonderful sense of humor you have? I don't know. I mean I think he may be damaged goods by now. Once that china (chin) gets cracked it's hard to put it back together again.

          When was Khan "Top Dawg" at Welterweight? Did I miss that ERA?

                Almost beat Canelo?how? by winning the first 2 rounds only?

                as soon as ginger adjusted to that speed, it was all over for Khan. Canelo was battering him in the 4th and 5th before sending him to la-la land

                  “Watch and see, this young man [Khan] will become, pound for pound, the best fighter in the world, no question about it. I really have zero question about that because he has the skills, tremendous power in his punch. He has the heart of a lion, and in the Maidana fight, he showed that he might have the best chin in the sport of boxing. He really is an all-round athlete and a first-class human being

                  “We never get two nice guys in a fight. We’ve got two nice guys fighting here, but I’m sure once we put the gloves on for the fight, it will be a different story.
