Just got round to watching this. Yeah, Khan was ahead , but he wasn't connecting with a lot.
He did enough to stop people berating him for the £9 million purse he was paid.
Canelo looked pretty shit in my book , worst I've seen him apart from when Floyd schooled him.
Somebody said earlier "if everyone thinks GGG beats him, why do they want to see the fight?" And you know what, that's absolutely true. The problem is that the WBC have let that prick DLH create a whole new weight division. Every top MW should now just boycott Canelo and let him carry on making these Circus fights.
As for where it leaves GGG , his detractors will keep criticising him till he moves up. He wants all the belts first, so it is what it is.

I doubt the fake can get out of fighting the Kazak after last nights full court press. Even Oscar said he's be calling K-2 today. Of course he'll just say 155 or no fight but at least he called lol. If they say something like 158 perhaps the Kazak will take it but he should not have to. I have a feeling they are going to get Lemieux to starch out. Still even the Mexican fan base are going to get sick of this.

Alvarez was 177 last night. That means he gained 22 pounds overnight. That's more then Chavez Jr gained.

How do you know what he weighed last night? I thought he didnt get on the scales for the weigh in on the night?
