What will be the outcome if canelo can't make 155 for his fight against khan, will he finally admit to not being a JMW

No fight according to khan.

He's well drilled enough in the drain game now. He was a vacuum pack of bones vs Floyd at 152 but he got down there like he had to. He's a very good professional, he'll hit 155 ok imo.

That's a good question. I think there's a good chance he doesn't make weight and if that's the case, he's gonna get a ton of pressure from fans, media, etc. to make a fight with Golovkin.

As you get older it gets harder, also gets harder to regain the energy that has been drained from your body, he will only be able to get that low a certain number of times till it makes him old before his time

It's a great question but Canelo has been a professional when it comes to his responsibilities and with this being the first Cinco De Mayo as the main attraction with Floyd out of the picture, there's no way he doesn't come out at his best against Khan.

I don't think it will be a big deal myself it would no doubt cost canelo a lot of $$$ in paying off khan for coming in over weight but it's for the middle weight belt so as long as he's under 160 he wouldn't be stripped of his belt and I can't see khan not fighting unless canelo is over 160

What if his best means weighing in at 157?

They will use a caneloscale which will show caneloweight.

I've said all along that by the time they fight, ggg will have an easier time making 155 than canelo.

This will only be the second fight that he's able to weigh this much a 155. The rest of his fights required him to suck down lower than that so i don't expect that he'll have any issues at all. In fact, he's probably pumped about not having to shave off a few extra pounds because those are always the hardest. So he'll make it plus he knows how Khan will react if he comes in over. Khan's already got money so he's not going to be motivated by a couple extra million to give up an advantage like this. The fight will postponed without a doubt so i don't think that we even have to wonder about this.

It will be the 5th fight at 155 for Canelo.
You said at his best, seeing that his fight night weight is so much above this self-made limit it isn't beyond possibility that his best weigh in weight is now above 155.

Angulo and Lara fights were at 155.

As was the Kirkland fight.

He is such a Mexican bitch. He is killing himself to get to 155 just because he is scared shitless of GGG. If GGG did not exist he would have been at 160 a long time ago. GGG has altered his life course permanently. Canelo=TRUE BITCH.

GB could rig the scales like they did with Gatti and Gamache in NYC - who knows maybe they've been rigging the scales for a while now and the opponents are in on it - you never know - ;)

Yeah and Gatti almost killed Gamache in that fight too. Joey's corner should have stopped that fight though in between rounds. They knew Gatti's people had cheated the scales.

The World Boxing Canelouncil will also assist the proceedings to keep the Canillusion going - says max canellerman to canelo magazine :)

Nope - too much $$ at stake - WBC hbo and Oscar see mega millions ahead if they can just keep canelo on track - cotto 2 could be their target after con tanks - of course cotto has been cashing out for years now -
