desertbred 5,490 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 A poor chin is when you go down and stay down,, any fighter caught with the right punch will go down its what they do after being down that sorts it outa good chin is when you can take big shots without dropping to the canvas. Something khan doesnt have, but if he does what he does best he wont need one. Gota agree with rob on that one fighters get knocked out with body shots also does that mean they have poor bodies?

Francie 6,362 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 I think Kahn will be on his arse in 3rd then game over in fifth. If it gies distance though Kahn will have a massive chance, hes a good enough boxer to win every round, poor chin is the problem. Does anyone know what time ring walk is? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTJOCQ9neccPoor chin??/ As has been said if Khan can stick to the game plan he has a chance ....but getting into a ruk has been his undoing in the past Was this his last fight mik? What a fight, he took a few shots there, an took them well Link to post Share on other sites
neems 2,406 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 I can't believe anyone would even suggest khan has a good chin. He has speed and heart in buckets,but no chin whatsoever. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

neems 2,406 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Wladimir Klitschko has only been knocked out 3 times,but those KO's proved he has a very bad chin too,unlike Tyson for example who took a lot of punishment before his knock outs. Khan need never have even been wobbled until he fought Garcia if he stuck to his game plan and not tried to brawl with fighters he outclassed,but his chin would still always have been finest china.

Finest china chin, must be so suspect hes going up two weights for this fight lol, plus the nine million of course, Garcia fight he took a full bloodied punch just below the ear the punch would have floored most fighters. His other knock out was against a heavier known puncher I think he had 17 ko,s from 19 fights Khan will fight who ever not the trade mark of a glass chin is it ? Link to post Share on other sites
MickC 1,825 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 Khans undoing is himself,he has excellent movement,speed,fitness and boxing abilty to trouble anybody but sometimes in the past he has boxed beautiful then started brawling and paid the price. Like Neems said earlier he was giving Garcia a boxing lesson till he got greedy and stayed in the pocket to long and got stopped.Im not a big fan of Khan and he has been wobbled in a few fights but both times he has been stopped them punches he got hit with would have kod anybody else in the division. Khan needs to listen to Hunter tonight and fully concentrate for the whole fight and stick to his gameplan if he wants any chance of getting the victory.Im just hoping that Canelo has drained his body down to far and struggles tonight otherwise Khan could be in for a rough night. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
TUFFTY 1,476 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 Armchair know it all critics get on my tits. If Khan had a bad chin he would not be one of the best boxers ever to come out of the UK. I hope the armchair men get stuck in their chair tonight. COME ON KHAN COME ON KHAN 1 Link to post Share on other sites

What does having a bad chin have to do with being prepared to fight the best or outside your comfort zone? He could more than make up for his poor chin if he's sensible,just like Klitschko does. I haven't seen him fight for a while,but speed's usually the first thing to go,and when he slows down he won't have the tools to compete at world level anymore. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Suspect chins go for easier fights simple, also khan is smart enough once his footwork and speed begin to desert him he will retire Link to post Share on other sites
neems 2,406 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 Chins don't have minds of their own. Khan doesn't cherry pick his opponents,he chased Mayweather almost his entire career and imo would have stood a better chance than anyone else of beating him,though the more likely outcome is he'd have been snoozed again. Having a granite chin isn't the be all and end all,I'd rate a prime Roy Jones Jr. as the best pound for pound fighter ever,and his chin was very poor. Link to post Share on other sites
