    im a Amir Khan fan but the flush shots the Morales took in the 2nd or 3rd....The same shots in my opinion would have KO'ed khan....Morales stood up that point.

    Even a faded Morales is more durable than a peak Khan.

    literally the weakest anti khan theory ever and it's ok if you don't feel ashamed for having it because i feel ashamed enough for you to cover your lack of shame a thousand times.

    Yes, Khan REALLY has a glass jaw and to top it off he has awful recovery. His warrior spirt wants him to continune but his body fails him.

    If Khan had a glass chin he would of never got past Maidana, PEDerson(155lbs), Zab.

    Vs Garcia he got clocked with a well timed shot on the NECK a soft area and Khan never recovered, get hit in the right place any fighter can get KO dont mean you have a glass chin.

    Put it this way if Khan had a glass chin Kotelnik his first 140 fight should of dropped him, at 135 Khan did have a glass chin but that was more down to the weight.

    Come on Darni.... Maidana is only really dangerous for a couple of rounds, and has 0 notable KO wins at world level. Even then, he still managed to catch Khan in the 10th round and twatted him around the ring for three minutes - if the boot was on the other foot, it'd have been stopped.

    As for Peterson, the diesel tractor, his PEDs didn't turn him into Shane Mosley just for that one night. He was still the same pillow fisted outside boxer who learnt quickly in the fight that he'd have to pressure Khan to win. A fighter with Khan's footspeed ought to have been able to stay out of trouble with relative ease and win a shutout decision.

    Hatton at his best could have done it, or met him in the middle and belted him into kingdom come.

    Khan DOES have a weak chin, and **** survival skills. Deal with it :deal

    The likes of Lazarus, Asif Vali and Shah Khan are probably eternally grateful that Amir Khan gave them a reason to live. I'd hate to think what would happen to them the day he retires.

    He got badly shaken by Prescott's jab before he got knocked out. He has no chin.

    TBH Morales was done the round before, actually he was hurt in round one with a early body shot and it set the tone. But the round before the right scrambled his senses badly i mean he went back to wrong corner.

    He came out and you could see he was on last legs so to speak, The Hook was a peach! the way Garcia throws it is odd. He sort of leans back and snaps it, It was timed brilliantly and landed a bit cleaner then it did on Khan. I think the Khan KD had more of a whiplash affect.

    Khan is chinny, not as bad as people make out but he's not got the best of chin's. His heart though and recovery cannot be questioned. He doesn't quite as well as N'Dam who would get floored numerous times and get up and continue to win rounds on my card.

    Maidana is a overrated puncher IMO, I actually said this as Mandanda prior to the Khan fight. I think he's a decent puncher but was blown out of proportion by people on here. Some hoping he would spark Khan so they chucked there weight behind him and he let them down pretty much.

    I think Khan's weakness is snappy punches, it seems to be left hands as well that cause him problems. Maybe it's a blind spot for him?. Glass Jaw? Nah he's not that bad now but he's most certainly Chinny IMO.
