And the Garcia Matthysse fight, he would have gotten KO'd if either of those guys landed flush on Khan like they did on each other, his small head is the reason, fighters with small heads usually have poor chins and Khan has a peanut head. I wouldn't be surprised if he did get knocked out after applying aftershave like the poster above said to be honest with you.
    Yes I know his chin is weak, I didn't mean it so black and white, but I'm saying his style doesn't do that any favours either, he could help prevent alot of knock outs by just being abit more intelligent.

        Yeah he has cray reach and height for his weight class, but his chin is like a paper mache. He's gotten worse under Virgil Hunter who is terrible for him, he would have been good for him if he started with him since he was starting out as an amateur but it's too late to change a fighter at this stage, Virgil Hunter is an overrated trainer and he will only regress under him, leaving Roach was a huge mistake.

            I think he's cutting too much weight for his division, he's 5'9, he could easily be 147 and have a bigger neck, not saying he'd be competitive at 147, but I don't think his chin would be any worse than it is now.

              His chin is awful, crumbles like a biscuit.

                You fall in the haters category for me.
                I'm not saying it's great but it's not as bad as some people make out

                  He definetly spent way too long at 130/135 and has a sunken in look on his face for the Prescott fight, but I don't think he's a really small light welterweight, he's not 5'9 either, Garcia looked taller or as tall as him, he's around 5'8 imo and is very small boned.

                    He tried to fight 'smart' and box intelligently behind his jab against Diaz. Its not a few faults he makes, its cardinal sins and he simply is not a very good boxer, his handspeed creates an illusion. After 3-4 rounds he slows and is a sitting duck.

                    Hes a good amateur.

                    There is zero thought in anything he does. He has too many flaws to rectify, hes highly flawed IMO
                    I don't feel the best way is to try teach him to box intelligently, it'll make him worse.

                    I think you should pretty much leave him as he was but make minor adjustments, glove positioning for a start which would help improve his power.
                    You can't take a guy who has been doing something for 15+ years and make major changes.
