    he's taken peterson's and maidana's best shots and a few decent hooks from judah.

    he should be called amir iron chin king khan.

    If Khan & Mayweather fought, they would give it to Khan on workrate after 12 rds

    i think ali had a glass chin cus henry cooper dropped him when they fought. i dont care that ali took some of frazierss, foremans and holmes best shots. cooper dropped him therefore ali = glass jaw!

    I think you're going way overboard. Khan was on ***** street against maidana and peterson isnt a hard puncher. He punches with malicious intent but theres little power behind it. I saw it in the ortiz fight, he was throwing huge hooks flush on Ortizs face which I thought would drop ortiz yet it barely shook Victor.

    His chin is far better then we expected though. I remember he looked so vulnerable after prescott that I gasped for breath every time Barrera or ***an landed a shot on him lol, even a jab

    Let's be honest though, it has definitely improved as he has gone up in weight, and it seems as though he may be having to cut a little too much now.

    However, Peterson is not a lethal puncher by any means. And Maidana literally almost had Khan out on his feet. Yes Maidana is a big puncher, but I can't see someone with 'one of the best chins' in the division reacting like this to a right hand

    I can't see that punch doing that to (135) Rios. He was absolutely Spaghetti legged, he did take a few shots and did well to stay on his feet, but I think the fact he was put in such trouble from the shot shows his chin can't be called 'one of the best'

    if bradley, ortiz, peterson, judah, alexander took that shot on the CHIN in the 10th round of a very hard fought contest against a heavy handed fighter like maidana, i would hazard a quess that they would have been knocked out.

    khans clearly got a very good chin.

    Bradley, Ortiz, Judah, Alexander and Zab have all been known to be put on their ass multiple times before so I'm not sure they are a good barometer?

    Oh god it's still ****ing glass, man. Fair enough, he survived Maidana but only because he held him all the ****ing time and just had his ****ing hands up and shipping punches over and over again. And what, being dished around by feather fisted Peterson is meant to prove he's got the best chin at 140?

    His chin is still rubbish, difference is he's not getting caught off guard and going into a firefight. He's covering up and running. Let's not act like he's got an iron chin because he ****ing doesn't.
