    Is he finished before he really started? Should he call it quits and become a barber? :think

    Yes... Sadly. I'm a fan, and he seems like a nice guy but he's just too fragile/flawed to compete at the top level.. I'd love to be proven wrong, just don't see it happening. Best of luck to him though.

    Yes, I don't think he will be happy to settle for domestic level fighter and therefore will retire because he just doesn't have the skills to make up for the lack of chin or the chin to make up for the lack of skills. Its a shame really, he looked like he could have been a very good fighter but just showed that he didn't have it, would have liked to have seen him do something purely because he seems a very good guy.

    Unless he makes big changes ie a trainer who can use his advantages/improve and/or hide his weaknesses then yes, at a relevant level anyway

    Only oximoronically.. he'll continue to get reversed.

    The Truth doesn't become the truth.. what you thought was the truth was a lie.. the lie was always the lie.. the truth was always the truth.

    Like Mike Tyson's greatness.

    Like announcing "the former unbeaten British champion".. as if being unbeaten in Britain was anything to gloat.. to cap it off.. you got beat.. even if it was Sven Ottke style.

    You got beat (3 times like Wladimir Klitschko etc)

    You can change your trainer/training but you cant change your chin or punch resistance and he has not got the speed of Khan to compensate, sad cuz he seems a top bloke.

    Chin is overrated like Oliver McCall.. a heavyweight with only a poor chin can still reign.

    Everyone has the same average chin.. some McCall's are built differently though.
