    The biggest crisis Khan was in against Maidana was round 10 which can be watch here:

    Maidana is clearly catches Khan with much harder shots than the ones that put Broner down and made him chicken dance:

    P.S. Notice in round 10, when Khan's getting punched in the back of the head he doesn't go down writhing round on the floor in pain like Broner did? :think

    So why did Khan stay on his feet and not Broner?

    Broner lasted 12 in his first big fight where as Khan got ktfo in the first round on his first big stage, and then he got tko'd again in the 4th against Garcia. Broner has to now prove himself, and Khan has to keep proving himself.

    Khan lasted 12 rounds against Maidana and stayed on his feet. He was the same age as Broner

    He was also the same age when he spanked prime Paulie whereas Broner needed a robbery over shot Paulie :rofl:rofl

    What's next for Broner I wonder? I'm guessing he gets stopped by Paul McCloskey with a jab :lol:

    But he still got caught more flush on the chin than Broner did. This doesn;t explain how Khan stopped on his feet but Broner didn't...

    Because Broner probably has a glass chin. Maidana was the first real puncher he's ever fought and I believe he definitely has not acclimated to the punches of a real WW let alone a brutal puncher.

    He was taking punches from hobbits like rees and eloy perez not too long ago for **** sakes. Maidana's power was a shock to his system.

    Khan fought feather fisted Kotelnik and Malignaggi right before the Maidana fight too. He stopped on his feet.

    How's his chin weaker?

    Refute the evidence in the first post.

    Khan stops on his feet the entire time against Maidana, Broner couldn't.

    Even though Khan took harder shots. Nor did Khan have to pretend he was injured by illegal blows for recovery time :lol:

    What makes you think Khan took harder shots?

    This fight was at a heavier weight class, and personally I think Maidana's punching technique has improved since the Khan bout.

    Maybe Broner simply has a weaker chin than Khan? Or maybe Khan's punch resistance his deteriorated since that fight? Who knows. I do not believe for a second that the dynamics involved are as simple as you alluded.

    But I will say this - if Khan rematched Maidana now, at 147, I'd strongly favor Maidana to win by stoppage this time around. - and I doubt I'm alone in that.

    Broner got caught both times in crappy positions. He was crossing his feet and had his back foot the ground int he first one and in the second one, he was squared up. Both times, he had his hands down.

    Not to mention he's a blown up lightweight anyways
