Khan: Worst chin p4p of all 'contenders'?

Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by Smokin'Joe100, Sep 6, 2008.


  1. I think a fair case could be argued. Put on his arse by Willie 'swishing a sip of water around your mouth would be more irritating than one of my punches' Limond, and now faces someone with a real KO record and gets flattened. I can't think of the top of my head anyone who was (and probably still will be in the UK) touted as a future champ with as worse a chin.

    Comon I've seen some guys hitting Roy Jones when he was in his prime and he never got wobbled , maybe they weren't BIG shots, but it doesn't take a big shot to wobble/KO Khan :rofl

    The only reason RJJ was knocked out cold was because he put his body through to much jumping weights every month. The fact is, prime RJJ didn't have chins issues, and he was an elite fighter.

    From all the chins I've seen, Khan has the worst. It isn't an insult, it's just a fact.

    Mentioning RJJ at number one makes my blood boil and I'm not even a fan of the guy.

    some people think that just because a name fighter got nailed badly once then they are chinny.

    that can be an ignorant point of view because anyone who gets nailed on the button can fold.

    compare jones' KO loss to tarver to wlad klitschko's outing against sanders and there's a big, big difference.

    Jones chin is decent/good. He was only KO'd after his punch resistance fell from jumping up to heavy and back down again.

    Klitschko's is average/shaky.

    Khan's is pure ****ing glass. He has the punch resistance of a ****ing Koala bear.

    As an Australian i am offended that you would sell the Koala short like this.

    Audley Harrison has at least taken punches. Khan got hurt by the first shot that landed. Wlad might as well be ****ing Foreman compared to Khans chin. I cant remember the last time I saw such a touted prospect get demolished in such a fashion.

    Audley and Roy Jones Jr are close. Both have horrible Glass Jaws also.

    Let's see where future Prescott fights take us before answering the question. This guy could become the next Trinidad and Khan just took it too lightly for all we know. If Prescott doesn't prove to be the killer puncher he looked like then I would say yes, a glass chin but with beautiful boxing skills.
