    You make good points but I respectfully disagree. Tua was a monster who could bomb anyone out, is Prescott? Looking at his career pre-Khan there's still a question mark over that, and there is still a question mark over it even though he bombed Khan out as Khans chin was in question BEFORE this fight took place. To my knowledge Ruiz wasn't known as being glass-chinned before Tua and hasn't been known as that since then either. People have always suspected Khan is glass chinned and tonight proved it. Duran was already proven when Hearns KO'd him, absolutely no shame in that at all, no comparison between prime Hearns and Prescott, none whatsoever. Same thing with Byrd, he got caught with an absolute monster shot, Byrd in his prime was never down to anyone other than huge hitters, the same cannot be said for Khan.

    Regarding Haye.....no Thompson wasn't a huge hitter but as I said Haye was stopped on his feet in that fight, he lived the wrong lifestyle and paid for it. Haye came back and dominated his division, I seriously doubt Khan will.

    I'm not comparing Prescott to Tua or to Hearns or Ibeabuchi, just saying that based on his record Prescott is a huge puncher and proved so in this fight. Just like Ricardo Torres proved his power against Cotto. I mean nobody gave a second notice to Pavlik until he stopped Zertuche and Miranda, but he always had power.

    The book is still open for both Prescott and Khan. There's no denying that Khan has superb skills. His chin definitely seems shaky, but until we see him stopped by a guy who isn't a big puncher, it's illogical to say he has a glass chin. Otherwise he would have been stopped by Limon, Earl or Gomez, all decent punchers. Khan isn't even done filling out his body yet.

    As for Prescott, he seems to have good skills and tremendous power, so it's impossible to say where he will end up going.

    It's way too early to call it quits on Khan. Let's see how he rebounds from this and then we will know.

    Yeah of course, when Haye gets hit at heavweight by a puncher, Haye may even get knocked out worse!

    Haye's chin is just ****ing horrible even against average and weak punching cruiserweights.

    Bingo. Like Khan - and Fraudley - his management might be able to keep him conscious by matching him with washed up fighters or light hitters, but the minute he fights a decent, hard-hitting HW, he's ending up exactly where Fraudley did - out cold on the canvas!

    Two for two. Today is a great day for boxing. ANOTHER glass jaw gets EXPOSED!!! :happy
