I'll admit that Khan's chin was bad at Lightweight due to making weight. But when he moved up, his punch resistance got much better. You can't give me any fight of Jones or Hearns taking those kind of shots Maidana landed on the chin without getting blasted out. Just one of those shots would have done them in.
Jones ducked his whole career. He never got in there with any of the big threats. But when Devalle landed nothing more than a good shot, Jones went down and his arms gave way when he was trying to get back up. It was always made of glass. Johnson and Tarver are better than nearly everyone Jones fought beforehand and he failed. The move up in class showed. Deal with it.
Hearns fighting at Middle wasn't a disadvantage. He was a freak of nature. He should have been at the higher weights to begin with. Welter was just unnatural for a fighter of that size.
Who was Khan bigger than when he got knocked out? Prescott and Garcia were the same size and weight. Canelo was much bigger. So you're talking more nonsense as per usual.
Khan wasn't in his prime against Prescott or Canelo. Against Prescott it was pre prime. Against Canelo he was past prime. The only fighter to beat him at his prime was Garcia.
The only one taking losses here is you. You've been taking losses with everything we discuss. The only reason you believe otherwise, is because you're deluded.
Kings don't bend to peasants. But nice try though. Hope your delusion keeps you warm at night. Poor chap.
