He'd be undefeated and most likely a 3 weight champion.
Despite all his shortcomings his speed and his size make him a nightmare to win rounds against.
Other than superman roided up Peterson, who has won rounds against Khan without having him seriously hurt and trying to survive ?
i think you don't need to have a glass chin to get hurt by punchers like prescott, maidana or garcia. even with an iron chin khan would have been in trouble in those fights
If Khan walked around with his hands up, chin down, bit down on his mouthpiece and tensed his neck, he would take punches like Rios. But his ring IQ simply ain't that high, so he lunges in with his hands down to throw a right uppercut. From the outside.
If he had a rios chin
he probably wouldnt have lost to prescott or garcia
He would have become a much bigger star
I think he still would have lost to peterson because his chin didnt beat him that night it was the scorecards
And ?
He would be firing back with lightning combos, marking guys up and winning rounds.
But he would still get hit an awful lot, by big shots that would snap his head back. He'd be the equivalent of a Williams or Margarito with speed, he could take beatings, lose by decision and his chin would crack eventually.
UD'd even though he was winning every round quite clearly up until he got caught?
you really need to watch that fight again. by the 1st minute of the 2nd round danny was already timing khan in between his combos with beautiful counters.
actually, because i'm that kind of guy - here you go. pay attention and turn down the volume.
when he fought garcia he had his granite chin, same vs maidana
if people think the punches that wobbled/kd'd khan were the only punches garcia and maidana landed on khan they are retards, they were landing bomb after bomb round after round, loading up too
khans chin was granite, his defense is goat bad though
rios rolls a little, has his chin tucked and takes a good amount on the forehead or when covered up the sides of the head, he doesn't take big shots directly on the chin often, and the few times i've seen him do so he has buckled
new khan is like drained khan though, his chin is terrible, while he was with roach is was granite
He would have beaten Garcia for sure. There's a good chance he'd be undefeated and a top p4p fighter. I'll tell you what, if he had a granite chin, I doubt Floyd would be considering him as an opponent.
yeah Rios chin, Marciano's power, Ali's speed, Big George's punch and Willie Pep's defense.
Ofcourse he'd live in Disney Land and change his name to King Khan!
I hope he gets a shot at Floyd, why not Floyds running out of "opponents" !
I think he should travel to Europe and have the fight in Milan Italy. Ray
Would be fun watching both Khan and Rios in the same corner fighting some guy in the top 10.
Khan would start off boxing until he got caught and dropped then Rios could step in for him the next round until the guy got tired of hitting Rios. Then Khan would step in for Rios in the next round to box from the outside until the guy got his wind back and dropped Khan again.
If they could do that for 12 rounds and win, I'd pay to see that.
... he would already have signs of blatant dementia. look, khan knows how to do 2 things well in there .... bring fast hands to a fight and take a beating.
really? if khan had a rios like chin? you sadist fooks would really want that for this kid?
What if what if what if what if what if? What if Tyson decided to grow up before he got knocked out, what if Roy Jones actually learned to box instead of relying almost exclusively on speed, what if Riddick Bowe discovered Jenny Craig, what if Margarito didn't rely on cheating to win big fights, what if James Toney understood working out is all part of training, what if Tommy Morrison weathered all those shots by Ray Mercer, what if Roberto Duran didn't quit on his stool, what if George Foreman didn't rely almost solely on his power to win, what if Meldrick Taylor's corner had Chavez's wraps properly checked before the fight, what if Tyson would have kissed Holyfield instead of biting his ear off?
What ifs are only good in situations that have no hope of being real, the fact is Khan has no chin as is evidenced by his KO losses. Khan is a bum, plain and simple and having an imaginary undefeated record does nothing to enhance the sh1tty taste of a potential Mayweather-Khan matchup.
Khan is a bum?
2 time world champion.
Now gonna get a nice paycheck against Floyd. He ain't no bum you are the bum for hating on a guy that puts his life on the line every time he steps in the ring. Have some respect and I'm sure if you ever met khan you wouldn't be such a keyboard warrior. Because he would make you do the stanky leg.
Agreed, his defence is average at best, his balance isnt great and his chin is ordinary. So how is this guy effectively 28-2 having beaten some pretty darn good fighters ?
you can't have the worst chin in boxing and be the most hittable guy ever and have only lost legitimately twice in almost ten years. You have to have something going for you.
Khan doesn't have defence, he literally runs away and even then because his footwork is so bad he is still easy to hit.
