Your broad loves me.....
If you ever saw any fight outside of last night you'd know that he could be out boxed. Easily. Everyone thought he was just green against Floyd but nah, he isn't that good of a boxer.
And I don't need to stop watching boxing lil nikka. I been doing it and watching the shyt since I was a kid.
Probably 15 million pounds.

Exposed how? We didnt learn anything anout Canelo we didnt already know. Besides that it aint like Khan was dominating the fight anyway. Most of the rounds were closeIm a fan of Canelo but the breh got exposed
Great KO but he really did look wild
Khan shoulda known he was setting up for a big right the entire fight.. If he hadn't of slowed down and had a chin
He still would have lostlooking at the judges scorecards prior to the KO it looks like they woulda fukked Khan over regardless

exactly!....shyt is hilarious that we have people who claim to have watch boxing since they were little making these claims....I didn't see any exposal....I saw Canelo having a hard time adjusting to Khan's speed and that was it....once the later rounds came it was clear as day Canelo was doing damage....
look at khann's an initial reaction. When Canelo fakes he just flails to protect his body. He did that all night. The hook after was body reaction not a conscious choicePerfect breakdown & gif selection as usual
I don't understand because we have different opinions?
Since when do u get a medal for out boxing Amir Khan? He was waiting for the right. He knew it would be there. Anyone who's watched Amir fight knew it would be there at some point. He literally hit dude with the same shot Danny Garcia tagged him with.
Lol. nikkas love to talk about what other ppl don't know to defend their own opinions. Just put that Coli Cash up when the fight happens. shyt. I'll put real money up that if it happens before the end of 2016 Canelo gets the beats.
Swift clocked Amir with a beautiful counter left hook that took away Amir's legs and then just pummelled Amir till Kenny Bayless stopped the fight.
And I am shocked and appalled at the amount of willful ignorance being shown in a lot of the posts in this thread.
If you couldn't see that Canelo was setting Khan up for that right hand from Round 2 on and that he was doing really good work in that ring then you need to go watch WWE or something because you don't know shyt about boxing.

I felt like once khan seen the right coming, he panicked for a split second. he tried to cover up, but then decided to throw the left at the very last second.....like literally a millisecond before the right landed on his chin he started the check left hook. khan had already started the motion and the muscle memory finished the job even though he was dead asleep. but that split second khan panicked was his death sentence. virgil said the other day khan is fast but he doesn't think fast. besides his chin, that's his biggest problem. he can't process things quickly.

To add to this on the second episode of 24/7 Eddie Reynoso specifically mentions how Khan never uses any upper body or hip movement to avoid punches (ie Spinks leaning back to avoid the right hand in that gif)...He made a point about Khans stiff defensive stance and that all he does is block punches with his arms...When he tires he also tends to fight small (lean in) and does not maintain distance so for Canelo it was always a matter of keeping composure and weathering the early storm...i think he was actually in the process of trying to throw a check hook. thats why his arm came around that way as he was going down to the canvas.
here is what happened. khan threw a jab. canelo slipped the jab through the space that he has next to his right ear and over his right shoulder and threw a counter right hand over it in the same motion. khan saw a right hand and started the process of throwing a check hook over it instead of bringing the jab back.
when you throw a check hook over a right hand you must make sure that you have created seperation. this is what khan was supposed to try to do here.
heres michael spinks throwing a jab and creating a counter right hand and then coming over the counter right hand that he just created with a check hook. this is everything that just happened with khan and canelo but with one big difference. spinks waited to bring the jab back and created seperation. thats why khan ran into the right hand that he created with his jab and thats why spinks countered the right hand that he created with his jab.
you use your jab to do damage but you use your jab to create slipping and countering too. when you can use your jab to create the reactions that you want to create you understand the way that boxing actually works. khan is someone that has always wanted to throw an extra punch even when he probably shouldnt have. he always was in a rush to throw just one more punch. maybe that comes from amateur boxing and the amateur boxing points system. but thats not the way that boxing actually works.
That's why I laugh when dudes talk about Khans chin as if that's his only flaw...There are very few fighters that can get hit cleanly with the power punches Khan eats repeatedly and not get KTFO...Rigo has a suspect chin to but he doesn't get put to sleep like Khan does...Why? because he knows how to protect and box around his weakness...He doesn't depend on his handspeed and expose his chin to repeated power punches like a fukking idiot...

Ggg has the tools to outbox canelo easily IMO. Obv canelo has one shot power to change any right, but it's quite clear to me who the superior technician is
Canelo was telegraphing that punch all fight and still landed it
