Roach wouldnt let Khan trade with kotelnik...

[OaktownGhost]

he was very clear that khan was not to trade with him as he seemed over catious of khans chin. in my opinion roach doesnt have a strong belief in khans chin. this is not a hate thread so please no haterz but i do not believe roach wants to put khan in with any heavy hitter fighter. honestly i do not think khan will face maidana and roach will probably avoid putting khan against any hard hitting opponents who stand a chance of knocking his ass out so do not expect to see maidana vs khan

I think Roach has lots of faith in his judgement of Khan's chin.

Er, no.

Think about it for a second, WHY WOULD HE STAND AND TRADE

He didn't need to, he was running rings around the dude and pitched a shut out, why give Kotelnik any sort of chance, by standing there and slugging with him? It makes no sense, if you are in a marathon, and you slow down to taunt your opponent, who is miles behind you, then you deserve to trip over because you are an idiot.

See what i am saying.

would you? roach has it right. khan's chin sucks. there's no need to chance anything.

In my opinion, he doesn't think it's as bad as many people make out, and it may be better up in weight, BUT it pays to be mindful, since it has proven shaky in the past.

Pretty much i think any good fighter, should try and avoid getting hit unless its absoloutley neccesary (which it should never be)

It'd be nice If Khan had an iron jaw, and could be an all out offensive fighter, who gets clipped once or twice, but just walks people down with speed and power, but he isn't, and must fight as such.
