    I'd say average, a 5. It's the fact he got caught clean too many times (once is enough for most people!)... Tighten that defence up, chin doesn't get whacked.

    I dont think his chin is terrible because his chin was taking bombs in round 4 before he was stopped going a mid level chin of 5

    A 5 or so, a bigger problem is his brain is mush not his chin, as soon as he gets hit he turns in to a completely different fighter and not for the better.

    Below average. But it can be managed if he increases his ring I.Q which is his main problem at the moment. The guy gets clipped and his ego drags him into brawl.

    on a scale of 1-10 i would have to say 2, not every shot drops him but any that land clean does:dead

    About a 5 but with his strategic approach being about a 3.

    Not totally glass,but he does seem to have trouble holding "any" shot that catches him,his legs go all haywire,i think his fights are great,hes like an accident waiting to happen.

    2 at best. Remember his spaghetti legs in the ameteurs too, he's got a massive glass baby.

    About 3.

    He's slightly stronger than he was in his earlier days but he's still easy to hurt.

    His resilience is the only reason why he's not got half a dozen KO losses already.

    TBH I thought it was Garcias bodywork that weakened Khan, he took some meaty hooks down below, & when he was finally clocked on the neck/head & went down so dramatically? I honestly think its cos he was weakened so much by the ferocious bodyshots he took. Only saw the fight once, but that was my impression whilst watching the drama unfold. I thought he was more broken down than glass chinned in his last fight.
