    They are all incomplete in their own way.

    Khan- got the skills, power, hand speed. But his defense is crap, he lack intangibles as we know he will fold under pressure or get knocked out.
    Bradley- got the skills, intangibles to fight through adversity and never quits. But he lacks power and finishing ability...(and has that christian rapper dude in his entourage)
    Alexander- Fights like a slower Cory Spinks with power. He dont move his head same as Khan. He is predictable. His footwork is not good. He is the weaker link though I think he would knock Khan out. Bradley beats him. Last night was his time to shine and he faded out and tried to hard.

    Basically 140 is just a bunch of guys on the same level. None will be great like Floyd or Pac. They all lack the it factor. Despite two being undefeated.

    Son, you can't train a man to strengthen his chin:deal
    Punch resistance is something you either have or don't have. It doesnt matter if Khan weighs 300 pounds he would still get KTFO by an average powered clean punch on his chin. There is nothing Khan can do to change that.

    Here is a stunning example in slow motion:

    I kind of get the feeling that people don't quite understand that having, or not having, a chin isn't everything in the sport of boxing. Also, I would suggest that being KO'd early by a big puncher who is known for KOing his opponents early, isn't proof positive that the dude has no chin. If it becomes a regular theme, fine. But I'm not totally convinced we've seen enough to know for certain.

    Wow.

    Bull**** yourself however you see fit my limey friend.

    The truth of the matter is educated boxing fans that have been around the sport for some time can tell Khan has no chin from HOW he was KOd(what did the job, his reaction, etc.)

    All the signs point to Khan eventually getting dropped like a sack of hammers again.

    Bredis Prescott stripped Amir Khan of his ****ing soul in under a minute. Now you're trying to tell me that higher caliber versions of Prescott(Ortiz or Maidana) would'nt do the same thing? If not what makes you think so??:huh

    Actually he was. Not on Khan's level - but he was chinny.
