Try 85-15. According to betting odds.

Quite a lot of people voted for Khan in the poll but it's noteworthy that almost none of them have posted.

I'm a big supporter of Canelo but weirdly I'm going for Khan to spring an upset. He's so talented and Canelo as brilliant as he is, can be outboxed and out speeded and Khan could do that. Of course the most likely scenario is Canelo wearing Khan down and KOing him but I've had a bet on Khan to spring a surprise.

I would say that the most likely scenario is Canelo timing and stopping Khan within 4.

I know Khan will be in the shape of his life and will give it everything, just can't see him keeping his chin out of Canelo's way for 12 rounds, and can't see Khan's power bothering Canelo at the higher weight.

I assume I am not the only one who expects khan, long layoff outside testing regimes and all, to look to have really benefitted from an *extensive strength & conditioning regime*?

Not that it will make much difference, you know, but I bet he will look big enough that the size difference isn't as huge as it was a.year ago.

Khan will be overweight which is not the shape of his life.

If you mean overweight like Marquez vs Floyd I absolutely guarantee he won't look like that kind of overweight.

More like the kind of weight gain you see in a lot of the sprinters, you know...they said ben Johnson gained a lot of muscle in the runup to Seoul 1988

I'm saying he will have spent the last 14 months full of PED's, do you not get that?

What I am saying is that no PEDs or training will help Khan to be in the same functional condition as black sprinters. He just genetically can't get there.

Canelo via murder

The people on the front row will be brushing pieces of Khan's glass jaw off of their jackets for weeks.
