Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: Canelo Was Around 180-Pounds, I Didn't Expect That

[Divine Hammer]

This is the big one. After Mayweather and all the abuse that is going on we need to go back to same day weigh-in. This is dangerous for both fighters. Someone is going to drop ****ing dead in the ring from this ****.

exactly this. it is not right that someone can drain themselves down to nothing in order to rehydrate 20+ lbs on fight night. absolutely unacceptable. guys like canelo, chavez jr, nonito donaire, etc. are all rehydrating 20-30 lbs on fight night and as a result putting their opponents lives in danger.

this is absolutely worse than steroids. it's equal to loading ur gloves imo. this is disgraceful.

The Khan excuse train rolls on.

Lucky punch against Garcia, drained against Prescott, 'the man in the hat' against Peterson and now an imaginary weight for Canelo.

Everyone knows Canelo comes in between 170-175 (Khan himself predicted that weight). Stop making **** up, the better fighter blasted him out.

canelo weighed 170-175 lbs a few years ago when he was younger and could make 154. canelo is now closer in his prime and older and as a result his body has grown. he is a BIG guy now. this is the reason why he cant make 154 because his body won't allow him to. this is the reaosn why he won't allow HBO to weigh him because if it showed his true fight night weight (180+ lbs). then his excuse of being too small for middleweight would absolutely be destroyed no question.

stop being infatuated by the gingerbread man and use ur head. canelo is a fraud feasting on smaller guys much like chavez jr and nonito dontnaire did. they're all frauds. but why cant u see this? please epxlain to me.

True. But the bigger man also blasted him out. The much bigger man.

Everyone knew what was going to happen. Khan got mad stacks to get put to sleep. Give me 13-15 million and I would fight GGG.
Khan tried and got enough money to retire on ten times. Smart business move.

[SUBZER0ED]

Khan would be better off just saying, "Yeah, I got KO'd brutally, but Ah'm an instant millionaire; laughing all the way to the bleedin' bank, noahmean!?"

Lol, "I didnt know." Even armchair boxing 'fans' like us know Canelo comes in atleast 175-180 pounds. Draining that much will only harm Canelo and his family.

He never once weighed 175.

At 154, his highest fight night weight was 171. At 155, he was still 171 against Lara. He's leaner now than he was then, but the weight is still very much similar. There is no way he was close to 10lbs heavier against Khan than he was against Lara, people are just doing as always with Canelo, speculating.

His best wins are all against guys of a similar weight.

Yes.
And, as some posters said above, he even looked smaller than in the Cotto fight.

khan = ZERO Credibility

laid out
unconscious
WBC do the humane thing and don't allow him to compete anymore
he and hatton could maybe do an undercard at a B-Level hotel in the UK - two punch-drunk losers would be the promotion.
