    I think that people irrationally hate on Khan because of the Hype.

    I think that he will atleast gain a major belt in one divison. There have been far far far less talented fighters to gain belts, i see no reason that Khan could not.

    His chin is not good enough even at domestic level. The first decent puncher who lands on his chin will knock him out cold. This is no secret either, FW was well aware of his tender chops when he turned pro, that's why he has only faced non punchers.

    This was my point. Unless you have a very good chin, you will never even be in the top of your division, nevermind p4p...whatever other skills and talents you have.

    With those suspect whiskers, doubt he gets past the domestic scene. There is a REASON he only fights guys with low KO percentages. As soon as he faces a decent fighter that can punch, he will be starched - maybe sooner.

    Khan will hold a major belt, most likely.

    With the existence of 4 belts, there will be a weak beltholder almost all the time.

    The only way he won't hold a belt is if a puncher unifies the belts in his divison :D If not he WILL find a weak champ to pick on, though.

    He can come pretty far looking at just his skills.

    BUT since he fights under FRANK WARREN I think that will be (very) difficult. And I don't think I need to explain why:fire :twisted:

    We still need to see more to know if he has a good chin or not, even if he doesn't with his style of fighting I highly doubt it'll put in serious trouble. Lennox Lewis didn't have the greatest chin and look what he accomplished, same can be said about Wladimir and Hearns. If he fights smart and doesn't get careless with his abilities he can go all the way.
