    I believe so. Any prize fighters who manages to become one of the elite is always good for boxing. The more elite boxers, the better. Khan, I believe, has the tools to become one in the near future.

    I AZZked it moar in the sense of will it become a revolutionary improvement towards boxing if he manages to improve his **** chin. We've all heard the saying you can't build muscles on your chin.

    A **** chin can never be improved, an improved defence can protect a **** chin.

    With the following that he already has in the UK and the fact that he's trying to make a name - early in his career in the State - I think it can be a very good thing for Boxing if he's successful.

    Of course it would be good for boxing.

    It doesn't matter the chin if its glass or granite.

    If you are winning and as long as your winning via some good boxing, or brawling. Just not Ruiz ala hugging.

    Then its always good for boxing.

    If Khan mixes it with, and beats, the elite fighters in his division, well what would be wrong with that? Just because he got sparked before doesn't mean he's a write off.

    But if he builds a career by avoiding them, that'd be crap.

    The guy is a baby in boxing terms. Give him time for god sake!

    He is not even in his peak! And his body has not even fully matured yet! He has welterweight written all over him but he could go way higher with his tall lanky frame! Just let him settle please!

    Would you take on top class opposition if you got sparked by prescot in the way that he did? Didnt think so mate.

    Khan won't even take on his mandatories so moot point really. As a champion he should be taking on challanges not ducking them like a limbo dancer.
