Amir's Punch Resistance After Last Night

[GrandpaBernard]

will he be more susceptible to KO's from here on or remain the same in chin?

The last time he fought a decent puncher he got knocked out....he got knocked out again last night....he got knocked out by Prescott....he's never had a good chin and never will...and he's basic as hell jumping in and throwing straight shots with his chin exposed...the guys whole career has been beating Maidana and Paulie I guess...seems like he made it a long way for really not doing much...

[-MEGA-]

This may seem funny but it seems like his punch resistance has gotten better. That shot would have ko'd most guys cold. He absorbed most of the shots pretty well, I didn't really see the Bambi legs too much.


Reality of it though is his punch resistance is probably the same it's always been.

Canelo has no power GGG would have obliterated Khan in 1. Ginger is getting rekt.

His punch resistance has never seemed all that great. I mean his chin has been a game changer since he's been a pro for those handful of guys who've touched him good. So sure I guess it can't be a good thing to get KTFO again for the future of his chin, but idk that his chin can be THAT much more of a liability then it already is.

It's not his all realated to his punch resistance it's his defense and poor sense of distance.

Anybody would've been knocked out getting cleanly as he gets hit. Look at the Garcia knockout? Not many could take these shots and remain standing.

Yeah his chin is weak, but it's not his greatest downfall.

[Larry the boss]

Khans defense is just terrible and he lunges in with his sloppy inaccurate combo's. The guy fights like a pissed off 12 year old girl

You make a good point there... he was known for having an iron chin before this.


Seriously though, I thought his chin was the best it had ever looked last night, it seemed to get better the more weight he gains. At 140lbs it was like the chin of a 3-year-old girl... at 147lbs it was only like a 7-year-old girl.

Last night he fought a middleweight, took some shots that didn't even seem to phase him, and got laid out by a shot that could have laid out a bull.

His **** Reflexes/Vision allows him to get hit with stuff he doesn't see coming so that is why he gets dropped and knocked out. Nothing he can do about that to be honest other than avoid guys with Pop like he was doing but even Algeiri was able to hurt him and we know he doesn't have good Power at all but Algeiri have some timing

You time Khan you will put him on his ass! So yes if you're patient and is just quick enough to timing him he is very much so susceptible to KO's

A Brutal KO like that, he is likely just destroyed mentally, probably should take the rest of the year off and comeback early next year
