By Scott Gilfoid: IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is siding with underdog Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) in his important clash with WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) on May 7. Fury believes that Khan has the hand and foot speed to do the job on the slower, but much bigger, younger and stronger Canelo.
Fury notes that the 25-year-old Canelo hasn’t knocked many people out in his last five fights despite possessing a lot of punching power, and he says he’s not been a world champion for too long. Fury sees Canelo as a pumped up welterweight, who has moved up in weight over the last five years.
By Bashar Khaddage: With the recent announcement of WBC Middleweight Champion Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez fighting the welterweight Amir Khan, I must say I’m not too sure how I feel about this.

By Tim Fletcher: Chepo Reynoso, the trainer for WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs), feels that Amir Khan’s hand speed is something that they need to be focused on nullifying on May 7, when the 25-year-old Canelo faces Khan in Las Vegas, Nevada.

By Dan Ambrose: The now retired Matthew Hatton, the brother of former two division world champion Ricky Hatton, thinks that WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) will ultimately be too big for Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) to handle in their fight on May 7. 
By Dan Ambrose: Super middleweight George Groves was surprised like many people about the news of Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) getting a title shot against WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) on May 7.

By Gerardo Granados: Have you ever wondered why Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De la Hoya is having WBC middleweight belt holder Saul “Canelo” Alvarez fight one tailor-made opponent after another? Have the readers noticed a trend on how boxing cash cows become so good in the eyes of casual fans? 
By AK: Ever since the Amir Khan and WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez fight got announced this week for May 7 on HBO pay-per-view, the majority of boxing fans on this website have been calling this fight a mismatch. Canelo Alvarez is a really good fighter, has a good resume, solid chin, always going forward, and is willing to fight anyone, but the way people are taking about him is as though he is some kind of killer in the ring and cannot get beat. 
By Dan Ambrose: Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) isn’t too worried about WBC middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez’s weight advantage for their fight on May 7 on HBO pay-per-view.
