    I don’t have a problem at all with this or any of Jake Paul’s other exhibitions. The Tyson show brought a tremendous amount of attention to the sport, and to women’s boxing in particular. Boxing is dying, boys, or at the very least it’s at a serious low; we should welcome any buzz generated. Who cares if Jake is the PT Barnum of the sport?

      His chin was weak yeah but i think people always over hype it too, yeah dropped by a number of boxers, yet the way people make out you would think he was KOd out cold with 1 punch multiple times. If you actually look back at his losses

      Prescott flattened him,

      Garcia hurt him bad but he still got back up and was stopped on his feet, Canelo was 2 divisions above an is an atg who's kod plenty of fighter his own weight.
      Bud elite but again he wasn't put to sleep stopped on feet,
      Brook fight he was well past it and washed and ref stopped it but even all those punches them rounds he couldn't drop Khan.
      He took some huge shots of Maidana and was hurt but he still made it to the end and won
      Peterson many felt he won, on top of that Peterson tested dirty and Khan got one of his belts back

      The way people diss him you would think he has been 1 punch kod 10 times or something
      Khan has always to brave for his chin. He had great speed and fought some good names beating them. Having a good chin is part of being a great boxer.

        Amir already said he's unlikely to do it as he's too small

          Agreed...only Prescott and Clenelo (who he had NO business fighting) knocked him out cold whereas the losses against Garcia, Crawford & Brook all happened on the feet. Clenelo + Crawford were both p4p #1 at the time so there's no shame in being stopped by the BEST fighter in the world.

          Therefore, all things considered, Khan definitely had a subpar chin (given that he suffered plenty of knockdowns in his career) but he made up for it in heart, bravery and toughness which a LOT of fighter's lack today.
