I'm not sure about khans chin, I don't think anyone can know for sure (including khan and roach) until he gets tagged by a genuinely big puncher at 140.
Khan and Roach are making the right noises, Khan himself said recently in an interview that if people think he's chinny then they should step up and try to knock him out. The only problem is that picking fights like Malignaggi or chasing older lighter fighters like Marquez instead of facing the big fighters in your weight division doesn't really back up their apparent belief.
Ultimately nobody will know until he's in there with a puncher again.. Like the previous poster said, Cotto was wobbled a few times at 140 but looks a lot stronger at 147 when he hasn't got to drain to make weight. Maybe Amir Khan is the same. I hope Khan backs up his apparent belief in his chin and steps up to take a risk, that's the only way he's going to put his "chinny" reputation to bed
The proof is the puddin'. Team Kan's actions indicate that their 'apparent belief' is that Khan has a glass jaw.
