    Is Amir Khan finished if he gets KO'd again?

    I'm pretty sure he'll win quite easily and I'm rooting for him in this fight, but the only thing that worries me is Maidana's power and Khan's questionable chin. This is boxing after all and anything can happen....especially when you're up against a big puncher.

    Khan has already been KO'd once before and he bounced back, but another KO loss could really mess him up mentally and it could also take a lot out of him physically.

    Khan is only 24 and one of the boxers who is hyped up to be the next big thing so he has a lot more to lose in this fight than Maidana. Another KO loss could be devastating.

    How do you think Khan would be able to handle another KO loss? Will he be pretty much finished at the elite level?

    He may not be 'finished' but he'll be finished with the "I'm targeting a showdown with Mayweather talk".

        No, he still has a big name. It will take a number of similar KOs and even then he might not be finished. Look at Audley ffs.

            IMO Yeah, if Khan gets KO'ed its OVAH!

            Unless he has a rematch clause...

              No, he can do a wladimir, get KO:d a few times then come back better. He is still young.

                    Depends what type of fight it is, if he dominates for a long period of time and then gets tagged a rematch could solve that.

                    If he gets sparked out like the Prescott fight the question mark is always going to be there and he'll have lots of trouble rebuilding.
