The Godfather 71,870 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Fury is probably right to retire after this, I think he will get battered but that’s more because he’s not taking it serious and he’s in disgraceful shape for a championship defence. He has made his millions and probably just wants to enjoy eating/drinking himself into oblivion like Hatton and Naseem Hamed done. Joshua fight would make millions but if he can’t be arsed he can’t be arsed. Hope Khan gets his arrogant face caved in tomorrow night, the quicker he realises he’s an average fighter the better. Sick of seeing him say he deserved a shot at the likes of Mayweather….he’s pish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I agree with you, but if he can win tomorrow my entire opinion of him will change. He didn't have to go up 2 weights to make this fight happen, he chose to do so himself. I respect that, takes a lot of balls. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect that, takes a lot of balls. He doesn't have the chin to handle him. One clean shot and Khan's leg's go, I can't see Khan dance about for 12 rounds without taking a clean shot. Who else is there for him to fight £ wise? The best ones in his weight won't go near him as he's not a big enough draw and isn't in their league. My opinion in regards to how good a boxer he is wont be changing, the mans been sparked out by ridiculously average fighters. bombaybadboy08 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillete 1,338 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Canelo is just a chicken shit making every excuse under the sun to swerve GGG even though it's been mandated for over 16 months hes constantly fighting at a catch weight of 155 instead of the full 160 he holds the belt at. He shouldn't hold the belt if he's no intention of fighting the top mandatory at the correct limit GGG holds the Aces here not that chicken shit Canelo who picks fighters smaller than him. Every fight he's 20lbs Bigger than his opponent Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangersMedia 35,961 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Khan v Alvarez intrigues me. I fully expect Alvarez to win, logic dictates this. He's bigger, he's a very good boxer, and surely trumps Khan in almost every attribute except speed. but I've got a feeling this might not be as plain sailing as I'd expect.

ready1873 3,885 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Just caught a brief summary of the Fury/Klitschko conference. Fury looks very agitated and nowhere near the way he did prior to the first fight. He's a fighter that needs the hunger and a big objective. This one won't fill that void like the previous did. Not purely based on that, but fancy Klitschko to beat him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanoli 4,625 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 think Amir has a chance , but his footwork and defence has to have come on leaps and bounds in his time off. If his idea of 'speed' is still just sitting down and using his hand speed it'll be an identical knockout to Smith Mohomoudi a few weeks back. hope he does it, canelo's the biggest pussy in all of combat sport Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band of Brothers 10,303 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Was going to ask what time ect so thought I would share details as had no idea was on Box Nation. 1. When is the fight? Khan faces off with Alvarez in the early hours of Sunday morning. 2. Where is the fight? The two men will be stepping out at the brand new T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. The multi-purpose arena, on the Las Vegas Strip, cost £258million to build and opened on April 6 this year. It has a 20,000 capacity and the battle between Khan and Alvarez will be the first bout at the venue. 3. What time is the fight? It will be shown live and exclusive on Box Nation (Sky channel 437), with coverage beginning at 1.30am. The actual bout is expected to take place just after 4am. Box Nation costs £12 per month and there is no fixed contract, meaning boxing fans only interested in the Khan fight are able to sign up for just a month. 4. What are their professional records? Amir Khan Fights - 34 Wins - 31 Wins by KO - 19 Losses - 3 Draws - 0 'Canelo' Alvarez Fights - 48 Wins - 46 Wins by KO - 32 Losses - 1 Draws - 1 5. Have they met before? No. Despite both having been around the welterweight division for a number of years, they have never come face-to-face. Alvarez win: 1/4 Draw: 28/1 Khan win: 3/1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithgersbear 3,225 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Well he is called the superstar of boxing, I ain't too sure about that. Of course he could knock Khan out. Khan needs to get him into a position of desperation to knock him out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFK-1 516 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 To have a chance Khan literally has to outrun this guy and to borrow a football term hit on the break trying to amass points. He definitely does have the ring craft for such a strategy but I would say it's still a very tall order. This guy has the ability and power to knock Khan flat on his arse at any time while I see no chance at all of Khan winning by knockout. But all things considered with a bit of luck it could be a good fight. I like this quote from the BBC referencing last years non event between Mayweather and Pacquiao. Quote A year on from the Fight of the Century that wasn't even the fight of the night, boxing could do with a classic for the ages in Las Vegas on Saturday.

SuperPapac05 3,383 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Fuck Khan. Hope he gets knocked the fuck out. But even with that, Amir Khan will still think Amir Khan is the real deal. Such an ordinary fighter. Band of Brothers 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
