But no fighter can continue taking those kinds of beatings and not start to break down at some point.
Paulie's a brave kid. I like him. But he's taken a lot of leather over the past few years (mainly because he has nothing with which to keep his opponent off of him with). Bravery and a good chin are finite.
Khan is all wrong for him. As his body's started filling out as well as planting his feet he's become quite a hurtful puncher. Couple that with his speed - which is right up there near the fastest in boxing right now - and a horrible, horrible slashing punching style (a bit like Mayweather's) which can cut a fighter's face into corned beef.
Paulie could take a bad beating.
