....but it seems like the entire British forum has forgotten that ?That's your opinion and I respect that and you're certainly not alone in thinking his whiskers are a little bit dodgy. However, until we see some empirical evidence of this, it's merely conjecture.

How could we forget that when every single post with his name in it mentions his chin. What an utterly pointless thread.

Amir Khan also has the fastest handspeed in the world of boxing.

So what he has a bad chin, he is still a good boxer.

unlike you "chincheckers" most people here are boxing fans and dont hate on a fighter just because of his chin

Not another Khan Chin thread, done to death. When he gets knocked out we will all discuss his future potential if he has any left to survive with the big boys.

Khans chin is iron. It was just a series of lucky punches.

After the Oisin Fagan fight I almost forgot, but as soon as Ian Darke said, "He took that one, good news for Khan he took the shot", I forgot all about Khan's chin.

From the Barrera fight......

HE TOOK IT JIM, HE TOOK IT!

Huge lightweights ought to be able to take shots from average sized feathers, with one eye and blood pumping out of his head, surely?

Especially given that Barrera hadn't stopped a decent fighter for as long as I can remember.....

Only time will tell how good he and his chin is. IMO if he starts fighting decent fighters and not no body's and guys that are past it. It wont be long till his chin goes again.

the man gets knocked out once and all you hear is 'weak chin weak chin'. loads of fighters have been knocked out in their careers - including Ricky Hatton and he was knocked out more spectacularly and devastatingly by pac. But all i read is khan glass jaw etc etc. What about Rickys glass jaw - and who the fuck has ricky ever fought apart from a shot kostya tzyu on points, in his home town, with a biased referee who let him punch and grab all night. The ones who post this type of shit don't know shit about boxing.

Maybe when Khan beats Kotelnik - and he will mark my words, ull start to understand that anyone can get knocked out if a punch hits them on the sweet spot and that speed and power combined with lateral head movement are more important in fighter then having a strong chin.

The art of boxing is to hit and not get hit - not to take hard shot after shot and keep coming forward and take even more shots in a vain attempt to hit your opponent harder and knock them out. Only Ricky Hatton tries to do that - we've seen where that gets you. If theres one man who didnt deserve the fame and the big fights its Ricky Hatton - the club fighter from manchester who was a National level fighter at best.

I thought this forum was for real boxing fans who understand the SPORT of boxing - which like all sports requires skill but the op is a joke who should be over at the ricky hatton forum where this kind of nonsensical thread is appreciated.

I used to bury my head in the sand too. Khan clearly has punch resistance problems, he has been down 5 times now as a pro? He looks so frail when anyone lands a punch, I just don't trust him to be able to take a moderately decent shot, we've seen him wobbled by jabs and cuffing shots. The most worry thing was that his legs were turned completely to pure jelly in one of his last amateur fights and went down looking like a baby deer trying to walk, this was all with head guards. Even though he will try his hardest to not get caught, it is only a matter of time before it happens again and I really doubt he will be able to take it.

He has terrible punch resistance, accept it!

Anyone can get wobbled by a punch, Floyd wobbled and staggered back when ricky hatton hit him in their fight - but did that stop hatton from getting ktfo??? no because the only way a fighter is likely to go down is if he gets hit flush an the chin like amir khan and ricky hatton to a worse extent did.

AK did have defensive frailties (i.e. poor head movement/bad footwork/bad gameplan) which left him open to the big shot - but most if not all 'British fighters' except for probably joe calzaghe have shit defence. British trainers and coaches to not to a large extent understand fully the defensive aspects of boxing and so do not emphasise them in enough when training fighters in their early years.

Any lightweight/ligh welterweight/welterweight would have gone down if they got hit wit ha monster punch in the same place with the same power of that punch by prescott including floyd or ricky or the fucking pacman. But floyd or the pacman would never allow a shot to land so accurately. IF AK WAS WHITE UD BE SAYING THE SAME THING - ACCEPT IT MATE.

If khan fights hatton after he beats Kotelnik - Hatton will get his ass knocked out too. If anyone is easy to hit and has no defence or punch resistance its your favourite fighter ricky hatton.

Even a hall of fame trainer like freddy roach thinks he has what it takes to go a lot further but no, you obviously know more about boxing and the potential of boxers and what it takes to succeed in international level boxing then freddy roach.

The funny thing is you and all the other khan haters in the british boxing forums (its always the british fans who have extra hate for khan - not the american ones????) that are gonna make khan richer and more famous cuz ure all gonna pay to watch this guy lose - just like you did last time, and ure gunna walk away dissapointed, again.

Instead of specualting on here whether you think the guy can take anther hard punch or not - WHY not just wait until AFTER the Kotelnik fight and then come on here and talk instead of just proving yourself to know nothing when kotelnik loses.

Surely you can accept that Amir Khan has a weak chin and still not hate him. Khan comes across, to me anyway, as ambitious but modest. He doesn`t bad mouth his opponents and he is friendly and respectful to fans and members of the public who approach him.
Even if he could take a punch, I suspect that there would still be those on this site who would hate him.
And if he could take a punch, are there any here who would doubt he could go all the way to a world title.
His deal with Roach is for one reason alone and that is to improve his defence. His attack is fast and deadly,effective I suspect even at the highest level, and if he can protect his chin until he gets a chance to use it he will win fights even at these levels.
Whether he can become skilled enough to do it or not should be a fair topic for discussion. However if he fails he should not be held in contempt.

do u watch any boxing except khan,he got wobbled of a jab,and ko'ed with the next punch,he should not of been allowed to go on after 1st knockdown,he was away with the fairys love.

hatton got ko'ed of pac in the 2nd round,not in 54secs like khan off a unknown columbian

u are in lar lar land mate if u think khan will beat hatton.

if ,and its a big IF,khan beats kotelnik,then maybe he will fight hatton,doubt it though mate.

did u watch him beat MAB,if you think that was a great win you are a knob mate,it was a joke.
