    Paper Chin

    Those 2 brutal KO’s to Garcia and Alvarez will always been in his head. And this division has some big punchers, Spence, Thurman, Danny Garcia, Crawford, Brook, etc.. Paper chins never turn into granite chins. Can’t take a punch...

      I wish Virgil a speedy recovery but I think he's overrated as a trainer. I haven't seen him improve anyone lately most of the fighters he train are good already. That's just how I see it. As for Khan he better not lose to Lo Greco lol hahaha that would be hilarious

        I like Khan, I would love to see him to do well. His chínks appear to be built in now so I would be surprised to see a significent improvement.
        Y
        All Khan needs is a good old fashioned calibration and some military like discipline. If Goosen can keep Khan fighting long and controlled, we got a serious threat.
        Just stop! Virgil was khans best trainer period. Khan can’t take an punch period! He is not elite and was an title holder wayyyyy back . He will never carry an belt again at 147 unless it’s the IBO. Khans offense is stuck in stone , his speed is stuck in stone. What needs is an defensive minded trainer and he needs to stop taking risky in the ring that’s his damn down fall. He does not have ko power . Most ppl can take his punch at 147.

            The way I feel. Khan has made it easy to make fun of him, but the guy fights. All in, no back down, fights. Just a little tweak early in his career to get him a little more careful in the ring would have made such a difference in his life. As it stands now he kind of is what he is.

            I hope he only fights a few more times. He is risking a ton of health concerns if he leveled too many more times.

                What it comes down to is Khan gets caught in the middle of something more times than he doesn't. He gets hit at those times because he takes poorly timed chances and over-compensates his speed with more speed, that's when he fùcks up.

                His speed is awesome, but he tries to nick a bit more and his form takes the hit. That's when he gets caught.

                Khan needs to stay on the outside, permanently. 1-2's, long shots to the body. He needs to take some plays out of Chris John's book. John did really well with his 1-2 approach.

                Dude, no matter how perfect and flawless khan fights on the outside at some point in the fight theres gonna be an exchange and khans chin aint gonna win that exchange. I get what youre saying though its just not gonna happen lol

                  Khan gets caught because he makes big mistakes. Fix the mistakes and maybe he doesn't get caught. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

                    He should start working with a jaw specialist, while he's at it he should find a doctor to help him grow a pair of balls...that dude took a cheating hoe back.

                      It said Hunter was battling some health issues but wasn't specific. I hope whatever it is he pulls through
