Comments Thread For: Photos: Amir Khan Survives Knockdown Scare, Beats Vargas

[Madison Boxing]

i think hes done, i was vocal in saying i think he could still be a player in the division but after watching him last night thats gone out the window. if its even possible i think that chin might have got even worse cause that shot that had him doing the bombay shake at the end of the round wasnt even that hard and vargas isnt known for his power. his chin is like one of the wonders of the world, how can a human chin be that bad.

Khan is excellent fighter and yesterday he showed that his speed, power, and lateral movement is still there. The only issue with Khan, and it isn't anything new, is his chin. He's simply vulnerable to flush punches which is his downfall. Khan can be a player at 147 or 140 simply based off of his skillset and speed. I honestly think Khan is highly underrated and it's a shame fans crap on him and don't give him credit for his accomplishments.

I wonder if he took a long systematic beat down and then got stopped if he would finally realize he is not the fighter he thinks he is?

Khan is lucky that the knockdown was at the bell and not early in the round. He might not have made it out.

Khan doesn't have the chin for boxing and he should probably quit.

right..i went last night to the fight, khan did ok, his speed combo is is strength,at no point did khan get drew into a punching match,his movement & footwork is very good, you always felt like "if he connects" then khan will go down, power was very much lacking.
i think any level of fighter above vargas is a step to far now, take the brook fight & retire after

Olympic Medalist. Former professional world Champion. Made
millions during his career. But he's not cut-out for boxing. lol
I wish I was similarly not cut-out for things.

Being an also ran is good in a lot of fields. But having a real critical weakness like a low punch resistance in boxing can be fatal. Who knows when the next KO will land Amir in permanent damage or death. He should quit now.
