I give Khan props man.

If he somehow pulls this off :pimp: but yeah, I doubt it

Damn! two of my favorite fighters going at it....I gotta rock with Saul on this one.
I'tll be interesting to see how Canelo will handle Khan's speed, and on the flipside how Khan will deal with Canelo's power.

damn GB did an awesome job of keeping this fight under wraps.. I like this fight a lot considering the potential fights on the table for Canelo, but I'd be very surpised if Canelo couldn't KO him tho. Kudos to Khan for taking such a dangerous fight

Word is Canelo only agreed after Khan's whined "come on, Canelo" from the sidelines.
 
Props to khan for taking such a big risk and going into uncharted territory. This could turn into a real ugly fight for him aka josesito lopez v.2
 
This is either gonna be the best move Amir Khan has made in his career, or the worst :lol:.


It's a known fact that Canelo doesn't do well vs boxers with movement (Lara, Mayweather, Trout), but I don't know if Amir Khan has the movement or the chin to pull off that gameplan. If he wins though, he's pretty much calling the shots at 147-155. Might even be enough to get Mayweather back in the ring for his 50th.


I think Canelo is too much for him but I gotta respect the guy for signing up for it, this is a bold ******* move.

I am told Haymon had nothing to do with Canelo-Khan deal. Deal done with Khan and is father. #boxing #CaneloKhan
Khan is with GB now.

Expect Haymon roster to be pared down. Lower-end fighters to be released from Haymon contract. This is an insider confirmed reshuffle step.

Insiders expect to be saved by a Fox deal, which they hope will inspire W&R to double down (not with another $500M but some form of bridge).

Discussion w/Fox about license fee for 24+ events. PBC then exclusive to Fox. Would scale back vision but show progress to investors.
What happens to Showtime?
 
Canelo can just hand over the belt to triple g now. Why is this dude fighting a soft welterweight for the middleweight championship?

Oscar wants no part of that fight for Canelo. This fight is a win win for me. If Khan wins, GBs cash cow is done. If Khan gets knocked out, we no longer have to hear about fighters "ducking" Khan.
 
Glad this is happening. I can see it now, one good shot to the chin......of Canelo, and Canelo gets rocked, Khan tries to finish it off with flurries upon flurries, and it's over, ref steps in to save Canelo. And Khan wins then retires, becomes one of the greatest boxers of all time, solidifies his spot in the future hall of fame. Statues of him in Pakistan and a big statue of him in Britain, all made of gold.

All hail Amir King Khan!

The Haymon spin from his misinformation officer about his involvement in #CaneloKhan is hilarious. Get outta here with that nonsense.​

Haymon is about to tie them all up in litigation until they're too old to box anymore.
