Amir Khan believes that Billy Joe Saunders will provide Canelo Alvarez with some problems early on, but expects the Mexican to stop him in the sixth round on Saturday night.
Khan, a former Light Welterweight world champion moved up to Middleweight to challenge the 30-year-old for the WBC world title and had early success before being brutally stopped in the sixth round in Las Vegas.
The 34-year-old anticipates that Saunders will provide the four-weight world champion a stern test in the early rounds, but has warned his compatriot of the speed and power of Alvarez, who has not tasted defeat since a first and only loss at the hands of Floyd Mayweather Jr in 2013.
