Amir khan has a good chin

[The Noose]

and why's that...because he'd have been canvas bound. eventually someone will catch him and he will drop, it;'s just a mayyer of time pal.

Exactly.

Even defensive wizards like Floyd and Whitaker got tagged with big shots.

If Khan has a good chin, then who the **** has a bad chin??



Anyone else notice how Khan raised his arms in the air when he took a shot? Just like Pac does. Then fired back.
I guess thats what Roach teaches.
He has definitely improved his defence and tactics. But it wont be enough.

Hence the blatant sarcasm. Can't someone just be a sport and play along?

Here's a valid comparison:

Very tall skinny fighters tend to have issues with their balance in the ring when getting hit, see Ali Funeka against N.Campbell for example, he went doen twice in their fight.

Wow, that may be the most ironic name for a fighter I've ever seen.

Listen im sick of all this bull**** about Amirs chin. Go and watch the clash of heads with barrera and see the force of that! It was ****ing brutal and shook both guys down to their boots! Id say that was up there with a solid right hand! But look how quick Khan recovered, look how little it affected him! The guy has a good chin - Yes he got put down by prescott but prescott would have KO'd pacman, barrera, marquez, morales - pretty much everyone if they had got tagged with the dynamite he throws. Khan went down and got back up again! Gomez and Limond hit him with punches he didnt see coming cos his hands were low and head was up. Most fighters go down i they stick their heads up and leave their hands down.

Roach is tightening up his defence so he doesnt get caught off guard again. BUt even if he does, AS LONG AS HE KEEPS HIS CHIN TUCKED IN, he should be fine. I recon he will go down a few times in his career but everyone should relax about how **** his chin is - it clearly isnt.

Now before people write "ban" and "fail" and all the rest of that funny stuff - at least have a think about my point. If u think im totally wrong then explain it..

If his chin is good, then please name a couple fighters with bad chins. I like Khan and I hope that somehow he manages to carry on with his career but.. The guy practically enters the ring on ***** street.

how many times has hearns been knocked silly?

khan has been knocked out only once

Hearns took several bombs from Marvin Hagler.. I realize the weight disparity but had a similar strength puncher hit Khan, then his head would have landed in Warren's lap.

facts are facts Khan has been knocked out once

[TheGreatA]

facts are facts Khan has been knocked out once

Once in the first round inside the first minute of the fight.

How many times had Hearns been knocked out in his first 21 fights? How many times was Hearns knocked out in the first round?

"Amir Khan has a good chin" is an oxymoron.
