Typical fan who called Khan glass jawed who can't deal with it now Garcia KO'd Morales in a more brutal fashion.
I wouldn't say either of them have glass chins but if you say Khan does then you have to say Morales has. Deal with it. |

Anyone can be put down, it's part of the sport. Some idiots have no clue on the science behind a knockdown/knockout that they think Froch would be able to jump around getting his feet all crossed up while in mid combo, eat a big money punch counter and stay off the canvas.
By pro boxing standards Khan does have a glass chin, but it's not nearly as bad as his defence and ring IQ. The guy simply gets caught by too many shots he doesn't anticipate because he's only focused on whatever combo he's thinking about throwing. Someone needs to tell Khan that this isn't training, drills, workouts, this is the real thing and he needs to respect his opponents more because they are looking to take his head off. They aren't there just to catch his punches and make him look good. He needs to take a page from Alexander and be more methodical. Work the jab for six rounds, don't even throw a power punch, stink the joint out if required. He is not going to magically become a pressure fighter or KO artist so he really should accept that he will need to brake a guy down slowly, look for a late stoppage or simply be a decison fighter. |

Khan does have a glass chin and people saying punch resistance is more due to avoiding shots need to watch Hagler Hearns and then you'll see that a granite chin means you can eat bombs. Khan's chin is pure glass. Morales is just old and shot. Ali had a granite beard but he got knocked out when he kept fighting when old.
These are facts, these are irrefutable, deal with it |

I am not saying that every time this happens a boxer will automatically go down, but you have to read into the situation of a KO, KD. Anyone can show a clip of a boxer taking a big punch and not going down, but you have to ask some questions. Was he eating them all night? Was he facing a proven puncher? How was his feet set? How big was the guy that landed in comparison to him? What punch and from what angle at what moment? |
