    Khans Chin

    Not a Khan fan by any means but when he got K.O'd by Prescott an L.W he was top heavy. His upper half was disproportionate to his bottom half. he was getting rocked a lot at that weight by blown up super feather weight....

    Since the jums to L.W you can take the Salita and Mallignagi fights out the window for obvious reasons.

    He got tagged a few times against Kotelnik who aint a huge puncher but he aint feather fisted either.

    Khans punch resistance has improved since he moved up... Not saying that he has a granite chin but it is not the glass chin it was at Lightweight and as much as Maidana has huge punching power its not out the question that Khan can hurt Maidana or even put him away...

    Its just whether Khan can avoid Maidina's wide punches all night and if he cant how will he take those shots???

    Its a 60/40 in my opinion to Maidana.... Khan has never been in the trenches and came out. Thats why i think Maidana has the slight edge

          Somebody will catch him one day, but he seems to have enough skills to survive anyway.

          Let's just see against Maidana. We will soon find out.

                The punches he took off Kotelnik were probably stronger than those that rocked him at L.W. He was way top heavy at lightweight..... Again not saying he has by any means a granite chin but it has increased in resistance... Weight drained boxers suffer. boxers with bad or poor conditioning advice suffer...

                Khan can take a better shot at this weight....

                  He was not weight drained at light weight, let's get that straight.
