Canelo Alvarez was taking quite a few hits in the first few rounds of his fight against Amir Khan, but finally found his groove in the sixth round to land some serious head blows. It was this one in that fateful round that ended Khan's night and it was pretty vicious.

Canelo was feeling pretty good about the knockout and even called out the undefeated Gennady Golovkin in his interview after the fight. Looks like we'll have something to talk about now with that fight looming!
