So Khan off to sleep, or dancing the night away to a with a frustrated Canelo?

Canelo just comfortably beat Cotto, who I think it a fair bit better than khan, I guess khan has a different style and everything but canelo has beaten Cotto, Trout and Lara(very close though), I don't think Khan is going to be too much trouble for alvarez. I think some people are getting carried away with their dislike of canelo.

I figure he's going to get squashed, but if he has a chance it will probably be obvious by the way the first round or two go, as he'd need to basically avoid getting tagged at all. One of those fights where you can only see it being one sided one way or another, if Khan can play keep away and outpoint him he'll have to do it for the whole fight, I can't picture much give and take happening.

Amir looked absolutely brilliant against Alexander but there is a reason for that. Alexander is a boxer/counterpuncher. His style was perfectly suited for Khans offensive ability to shine on. Where Khan struggles is with swarmer/puncher/pressure fighters. He's been beaten by some with not even half the boxing skills he has. The moment he's forced backward he falls apart. His fight or flight mechanism betrays him. Instead of using the ring and getting out of the quagmire, he squares up and chooses to fight. Alvarez is not a style that plays well for Khan and when you add the size thing it does not look good.

Who knows though how much Khan bulks up. It may serve him better to be 152 at the weigh in and not rehydrate to much. It would be a mistake imo to compromise the speed advantage. He's going to be outweighed by 20 pounds anyway. It would sure be some ultimate karma if Khan was able to win this thing. Alvarez's stock would drop like a rock. The catchweight champion who ducks the best in the division getting beat by a guy that had no business being there.

I would be absolutely shocked if this went passed 4 rounds. My bet is a second round KO.

I was thinking in the 5th. Cant see him surviving a clean shot weights ahead of where hes failed before.
