        his chin has betrayed him numerous times. but you cannot question his heart..

        had he been with a proper handlers/managers, they would have made more winnable fights for him.

            I think often times people confuse his heart and ego for him just not being very smart. The guy is a laughing stock, and he is too dumb to realize it.

            Always entertaining though. Fans love to watch him wobble around with bambi legs before he falls.

              There has been a concerted effort to make Khan a much bigger figure in boxing than he is. He hasn't done anything special in the sport. He's lost more big fights than he's won. In his delusional fans' mind he somehow beat Mayweather and Pacquiao because neither one even considered fighting him. Articles like help perpetuate the myth that he's more relevant than he is in reality.

                  Khan's feet and his eyes are not as quick as his hands. So he is always open to be hit by somebody with reasonably quick feet - he couldn't even evade Algieri's bull rush tactics.
                  Canelo is not a power hitter. It looked so spectacular for you because of Khans chandelier jaw.

                    Khan has plenty mouth but zero charisma and certainly lacks brains. He didn't even know his OWN country had a woman in charge ffs. He's a first class ***head and that's why people love to see him getting ko'ed. One of the few fighters that simply cannot fight inside. Flurry, hold, push away and reset. Repeat for as long as your standing. Mekhanical to the max.

                      Gotta respectfully disagree. Even giants can get felled by midgets if the midget gets a clean, full-leverage shot flush on the jaw - and Canelo is no midget.
