Amir Khans "glass jaw"

Ridiculous posters such as 46-0 will say he has a glass jaw, but he did pretty good with Maidana. Jury still out on if Maidana is a serious KO threat, or just a bunch of tomato can KO's.

Khan was pretty impressive early going against Maidana. If he could keep that intensity up for more rounds it'd be awesome.

 

He was always weight drained at lightweight. Still hasnt got the best chin but is getting away with it.

 

he is not a boxer noob

 

Ridiculous poster like your flagman zakman

 

Not glass, but Khan's still a little shaky...

 

Wet toilet paper, I say.

 

Not glass, but still pretty weak I think.

No way can you say he has a 'good' chin.

 

Hopefully I don't have to see him taking big shots. He's talented and fast enough to learn to be near untouchable which is always better than to get brains ****ed up with iron skull.

 

His chin is his biggest weakness. He has very poor punch resistance.

Shots effect him very badly.

 

People don't understand it has a lot to do with conditioning. The fact that Amir is a tall lanky guy with small legs only hurts his matter. Legs, back, and neck size/strength are all variables. Not everyone just born with a solid jaw, and others just a weak one. Sure that can be the case but that's why Sam Peter fooled everyone for being iron chinned.

 

I wouldn't call it glass but he doesn't have the strongest chin. If you could take maidana's power then your chin ain't no glass:deal

 

Khan proved some doubters wrong with his last performance but he hasn't magically turned into Antonio Margarito. He's still able to be hurt if he catches a decent shot, and I think that'll be the case for the rest of the career.

There's been a visible improvement since he moved up to light welter but don't be naive enough to think that a guy like Tim Bradley can't KO him.

 

His Chin is disgraceful.:roflatsch

 

So true. His physique during his lightweight days was laughable. I’ve not got access to YouTube, but if you look back at the Gomez and Prescott fights, the guy was like an upside down triangle that was waiting to be toppled over. His corner back then was amateurish, both in regards to developing his body and his skill-set. He learned more with Roach in 3 fights, than he did in the 20 or so before joining him.

But with that said, he does still have major weaknesses in areas other than his chin.

 

I don't like Khan but i don't think he has a glass jaw !
