    Could a prime Roy Jones Jr. have withstood the Knockout punches which stopped him later in his career, if he was caught in the same way?

    not sure because does age effect your punch resistance, it would seem so with hatton anyway but i think he never had the chin to take those big punches just the speed to avoid them, amir khan is still young and his chin is no good so i don't think youth would help punch resistance so no i think those big punches would always knock him out

    Not in my opinion.

    But he wouldn't have been hit with those shots of course.

    Nope.

    But he probably would have never been hit by the punches if he were in his prime
