Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Addresses Skeptics Questioning His Chin

[SUBZER0ED]

Yeah, big fighting heart but whether you call it chin or equilibrium, he has been knocked out by Prescott and Garcia. So lets look at that. Prescott in the 2 fights before the Khan fight and the 3 afterward, and including Khan, Prescott at a 33% KO ratio. That's 2 KO's in 6 fights. Yet he starched Khan. Now Danny Garcia. Garcia has had 2 KO's in his last 8 fights and one of those KO's was against Khan. That's a 20% KO ratio for Garcia over said number of fights.[B] Khan does not take solid punches well.[/B] Whether it is the side of his face, top of his head, point of his chin. It is what it is.

I agree that Khan doesn't take a good shot well, but why do you base Prescott's and Garcia's KO ratios on fights that took place just a few before and any after they fought Khan? As it relates to Khan, isn't the significance of their respective KO ratios greater in all their fights before facing him? It shows before facing Khan, they were somewhat considered KO artists.

Is that really a good thing? lol

Just saying, if you don't put him out he might survive. The guy randomly develops a Hagler chin after he's already been hurt. It's weird.

Khan has a glass jaw, but i wonder if he will be able to handle it even better at 147, maybe he needed to move up to handle the weight.

One thing you can't deny about Khan is that he can take one hell of a beating after he's hurt.

He ran away from Maidana and even turned his back on him twice, which bought him time. Some refs would have warned him after the first time, and maybe even stopped the fight after the second time. For some reason, Cortez jumped between them both times, allowing Khan to escape. The rule is to protect yourself at all times. Turning your back is seen as a foul by some refs, and guitting the fight by others. Now, Gatti could take a beating after being hurt! He rarely retreated, and never ran!

Garcia didn't hit Khan with haymakers. I think you need to rewatch that fight. He was timing Khan with his counters.

Khan never recovered from that eyes closed hell left garcia pulled out the bag. :lol:

I'm a khan fan but you can't deny his chin is shakey.
That's one of the reasons I'm such a fan you never know what the f is gonna happen. He's 100% heart win or lose .

Some of the boxing fans today don't want to know a fighter if a fighter has been ko'd or lose a fight

Fickle as fu'k.

No one can question A Mere Con's chin. He simply doesn't have one.
