    Speed, power, reach, size.

    The only thing I give Linares an advantage for is maybe footwork.

    If you're basketing that Linares can crack Khan's chin, Linares's chin is nothing to be proud of either.

    also in every department...they both have questionable chin but khan have more skills, better puncher, faster, bigger etc....linares has no chance whatsoever!

    Linares has some of the best conditioning and stamina in boxing; both suffered 1st round KO's Linares to a marginally better fighter and his chin has been proven more (Larios, Gamaliel Diaz, Juarez), power is comparable, Linares has better footwork, toughness Linares has the edge, Khan has size advantage.

    Linares is the better overall/rounded fighter and his positives outweigh the speed differencial (this is easily Khan's main positive).

    Khan's power is overrated on here. It is comparable with Linares who is the smaller guy.

    Right so Khan has a 1.5 inch height advantage and 2 inch reach advantage. That's pretty much negligible.

    You're wrong, like the rest of you ignorant Khan nuthuggers. I respect his abilites I just hate his 'personality'.
