Gotta love the argument Khan does not have a glass jaw.

      Drizdane has a 4% K.O ratio and dropped him.
      Willie Limmond
      Michael Gomez
      Breidis Prescott x2
      Garcia x3
      Julio Diaz
      Canelo
      Vargas

      He was rocked on multiple occasions by Algieri, Maidana, Peterson.

      Most of those are feather fisted af and naturally several weights smaller.

      I'm not sure even Amir himself is still delusional enough to believe his chins anything but terrible.

          One was . One was a champion.
          Both when he was a TEENAGER.
          And the second KO was from a body shot .

              I think the reason Khan is branded a glass jaw is because of how dramatic his physical responses are. The guy falls like he's been shot out of the sky. Couple that with the fact that he's not delivering much power of his own, and he comes across as frail. You get the sense that if he slugged it out in every fight, he'd probably have been ko'd a dozen times now. There's a reason he's very cautious.

                Morales was KO'd twice by Pac and Danny Garcia. Not exactly journeymen like Prescot.

                JMM has been knocked down several times but was NEVER KO'd.
                Of course Khan has a weak chin and poor recovery powers. He has proven this many times including his last fight.

                  If you are trying to say Khan has a chin as good or better than Pacquiao you lose that argument by a country mile. Never mind what happened to Pac as a teenager. In his prime he proved his chin in wars with punchers like Cotto, Margarito, Mosley and others while Khan has been dropped often by non punchers. Pacquiao ran into a perfect punch from Marquez and got knocked out cold but that punch would easily KOed Khan as well. Pacquiao's chin is vastly superior to Khan's chin and almost everybody knows that. Khan will almost certainly suffer his 4th KO defeat the first time Crawford lands a flush bomb on that weak chin.

                      Technically it's not made of glass, it's just weak bone structure
