    What's your reasons for saying Khan doesn't have any heart?

    He got caught with a lovely punch from the hard hitting Prescott, and suddenly his chin is made out of glass? For ****s sake, he took clean shots from the hardest hitting light - welterweight in the world today and managed to survive.

    His chin is good. Not amazing, not iron, but good.

    And what other "world class" fighters has Prescott sparked out? Hmmm? Maidana can crack some but his power is way overrated and lots of the punches that he hit Khan and wobbled him with were winging arm punches that, while looking devastating, aren't as powerful as a nice concise, crisp straight right on the button. Khan's chin is trash and it's not just Prescott that gave us that impression, rather because he has been getting flattened since the amateurs and feather fisted Willie Limond dropped him, as well.

    Grade AAA China.

    lol. The kid's got confidence and balls so we can all respect that. This statement is ridiculous though.

    He's been wobbled far too many times and brutally stopped so even considering his chin average (which I do now I guess) is a major accomplishment from where he was a few years ago.

    he does not have a china chin but it isnt diamond to be honest we will know when zab catches him with a few of those uppercuts I think he is just saying that to convince himself if he felt that way in his heart he would rematch prescott just off GP EVERY REALLY GREAT REMATCHED THEIR LOST and doubtful win because in their minds it was a fluke, he isnt really interested in redeeming his

    I couldn't agree more and like i said he is easy to buzz and hasn't fought a good finisher yet. Maidana was blowing heavy and was unable, others wont be.

    I forgot to mention that. Not only were they ugly arm punches but Maidana was huffing and puffing like an emphysema patient forced to negotiate ten flights of stairs while he was throwing them.

    Khan shouldve said hes one of the fastest runners in boxing. Joe Cortez isnt going to save his disgraceful chin this time.

    Ever since the maidana fight khan has been very humble and nice, along with the heart he displayed people start to like him, yet recently has been talking crap saying he is the best british fighter and now this, he needs to turn it down a notch and stay with both feet on the ground.

    Glass chins exist in boxing. It's irrefutable.

    Khan should not believe he has a great chin or he might be reckless. He should be careful and use the jab to get his speed going. I hope Khan wins.
