      That fact that he got knocked out and lost to C level fighters like Prescott, Garcia and Peterson should say enough.

            If Khan had an above average chin he'd be a superstar.

            You can't always have it all though.

              He'd still need to learn how to deal with pressure,fight on the inside and not take so many bombs to begin with... But I get what you're saying.

                I don't think it's glass, but definitely weak. Prescott and Garcia are not big punchers. However, he did survive Maidana and he has definitely shown the ability to stay away from big shots which is more important.

                  His chin is underrated imo. Any boxer can go down, he's ****** up big punches from the likes of Maidana & Collazo. If he truly had a glass jaw, he wouldn't have got to the position he's in today.

                    Khan can take a shot - but his legs don't recover in time.

                    It is a true traditional wisdom that weak legs are never good for a boxer.

                    It doesn't matter what type of conditioning Khan does - he will always have a really slow recovery time when he gets cracked on the jaw, this is what has limited his progress.

                    He has the heart, but not the chin / nervous system.

                    Just a genetic blueprint I suppose.
