I think Khan takes it to points, as he's focused more on defensive boxing since losing to Garcia. All Saul needs to do is win and he faces GGG in a super fight (which I might go see). Khan has emphasized speed for this match, and I think he will try to stick and move and stay away from Saul's power.

Alvarez will clinch, land bigger shots but I think like last fight, he could get conservative down the stretch (and he loses cardio b/c he throws so hard; I think that will be a prob vs GGG) and glide to a decision.

A side note, Tapia vs Lemieux is a motherfucker of a fight for an undercard.

I was all set to head over to Gallo's estate to watch the Canelo fight, but he shocked me and isnt even watching tonight.


His logic was sound. Canelo should win big, and it wont be worth his time watching, and if Canelo should lose, he will never watch one of his fights again.

fu Gallo, Khan deserves a bit more credit/respect than that.

I know the 'natural' weight puts him it at a big disadvantage. But Khan is a slick motherfucker and should not be dismissed.


Shizz gets this.

Khan should not be in the ring with Canelo. It's a silly fight. I hope I'm wrong and I learn my lesson, but Khan has NO chin and hates getting hit. He is about to get hit by a guy that walks around at 190 where as Khan is having to put on weight to get into the ring at 155.

The only mega fight I care to see is Canelo vs GGG or GGG vs Cotto.

Looks to me like it should be a canelo knockout. I bet canelo back in february when it was -325. I agree that it probably isn't worth paying for, but I'll watch it for free on my computer

[SetofKs]

shiiit, canelo is down to -400 on bovada. had been up at -550 earlier in the week. just threw some more money on him. betting that hell wont freeze over tonight

[El Gallo]

The guy never had a chance

[Shizzmoney]

bring on GGG vs Canelo

RIP Aamir Khan

[Lord of the Fraud]

ffs it's like Ricky Hatton all over again.


Anthony Joshua & Callum Smith will regain our pride.


Khan you chinless twat.

God Damn Me! I thought fight was 12 Est and missed getting my bet in and the fight. Under 9.5 looked good (easier to say now obv, FML)

[El Gallo]

If you look at Khans rib cage on the left side of his body as he lays there knocked out, you'll see why his guard was not all that high and that right hand came through

[SetofKs]

Khan made us sweat a little at least. I was worried until Canelo caught him. I thought Khan fought really well until the knockout, apparently 2 of the 3 judges had Canelo winning after 5 though.

To that point Canelo had landed more punches. Almost double the amount of power punches. A lot of the punches from Khan were missing and he was fighting going backwards the entire time. I had Canelo up a round

Floyd Mayweather now ready to fight Amir Khan for a 9 figure payday.

Mayweather should just stick his finger up his own ass instead.

Just got to see the whole fight. All I can say is

[JMM]

Gotta admire Khan's guts. Not many guys will jump up from welterweight and fight a guy that steps into the ring at 170+. $13 million obviously doesn't hurt, though.

It's time for Triple G and Canelo to get a deal done. Canelo is dead set to fight at his newly made up weight of 155 (which he calls 154 "with an extra pound") while carrying the 160 pound title. It sucks, but I have a feeling this fight won't happen, because they won't settle on a weight, and Canelo will just end up dropping the title.

[El Gallo]

Canelo just bitched out, Hard! Wow.

[El Gallo]

He is making Mexican fighters look bad
