Hmmm..I would say that... its a cash out fight from khan.. what do you think?

No, Khan has delusional belief in his ability.

Canelo's footwork isn't all that. You just got to keep moving and pump out that that jab.

Can Khan do that for 12 rounds and not get trapped in the corner?

Win win for Khan.

Nobody thinks he will win so if he gets beat he gets bravery points and a massive pay day.

If he wins, it will go down as one of the biggest wins ever from a British fighter.

It's a smart move imo.

Switched my stream off so missed all of this!

d4 - khan will get tagged at some point and he's been rocked by lesser, lighter guys before. he's getting ko'd imo. he's notoriously bad at sticking to a gameplan..

Obviously if Canelo tags him it lights out, Khan can't take a punch well and has poor recovery.

But Khan only don't stick to a gameplan when he underestimates his opponent.

Canelo has decent hand speed but poor foot speed quite flat footed.

The only reason why this fight is happening though, is because Canelo is ducking GGG.

That is the crime, but Floyd made ducking acceptable. Maybe Canelo fights him in 5 years time, when GGG is past it.
