Morales dispelled the myth of the glass chin

[FlatLine]

That KO of Morales was strikingly similar to when Khan was KO'd by Garcia. I mean damn, it was almost a spitting image. A lot of people claimed Khan was glass-chinned but we know now that's just not true. Garcia has just perfected that shot and any fighter would have gone down the same way - anyone! That has got to be the most devastating punch in the whole division.

In fact, truth is Khan was able to take the punch better than Morales in some ways because he got caught with it the round before but still lasted through to the next round and was on his feet when the fight was stopped!

The punch Morales was hit with was dead on the chin. Full force. the one Kahn was hit with was on the head or neck. Totally different punch but the one Morales was hit with was way harder. Not comparable.

Well, Khan's been down 8 times in his short 29 fight career. Garcia knocking out a 36 year old with 60 fights and 8 losses, does not erase Khan having a glass chin.

no, Khan still has a glass chin

Khan was hit in a worse place and with more power.

Morales was done tonight ,you could see it in his face. he was just done. His body too, he just blew up overnight.

That isn't evidence to a glass chin, but more to his awful defense. And the 8 times he's been down - most of those knockdowns were in 2 fights when he was caught with shots that would have knocked out most people.

For example, NDam was down 6 times in one fight last night, doesn't mean he's glass chinned!

Morales was almost knocked out of the ring with that left to the chin with all his momentum against the punch, if I agree with you we'd both be wrong.

[Earl-Hickey]

Khan has no chin, accept it

[Rip Chudd]

no, Khan still has a glass chin
