I think people in general exaggerate good or bad chins, but Khan definitely has very low punch resistance, it's not up for debate.

It has nothing to do with how often he's been put to sleep. He's got a big heart, and that had stopped him from getting knocked out.
The reason his chin is ****e is because he is hurt, wobbled and put on ***** Street easily. His chin gets hit and he does the stanky leg. Garcia knocked him down three or four times, most with weak shots apart from the first one. He's been hurt a lot.
Duran was also KOd. Does that mean he and Khan have equal chins? **** no! He was nearly impossible to hurt or wobble unless you were one of the greatest single punch KO artists in history with a foot reach and height advantage. His chin was ****ing iron. Khans chin is weak, but he has the heart to stop himself getting stopped. It's his heart that has won him fights, not his chin. His chin has nearly lost him many, many fights.
Only knocked out twice his whole career. Your boy chino got embarrassed by Khan.. and the pillow fisted Alexander made him contemplate retirement.Comment

did you stop watching that fight after the 1st round?
because if i recall correctly, khan bested ODLH's rendition of the tour de france in his fight against trinidad.
embarrassed by khan
that was the fight that cemented khans ******ity in most peoples eyes. "ey, yo - chino is just throwing awkward right hands, how about you keep that left up, m8" then BOOM, he starts doing the harlem shuffle, again.

The bad thing about khans chin is that once hes hit he stays hit. The one minute rest after been knocked down after Garcia you thought might be enough time for him to recover his senses but not really.
Hes on borrowed time. Most of his defense is about footwork and getting away, but once your mind is clocked and you are hurt your senses are gone and your legs go, and khan hasn't got the ducking and diving and cuteness to avoid punches. He tries moving but his legs are all over the place and its clearly evident.
That's why he is like Trever berbick was against Tyson.Last edited by hugh grant; 03-25-2014, 11:27 AM.Comment

Yeah, Marquez is the opposite. He's not hard to hurt or drop, but he recovers well.Comment
