    So Khan takes a flush shot from Maidana and goes down. He wobbles back to his feet then struggles, runs and survives the remaining few seconds till the bell. He does the stanky leg back to his corner and then slumps down in a heap on the stool.

    He makes enough of a recovery to survive the next round but loses it.

    Then after another break he's fully recovered. He then goes onto a late KO or wide UD victory.

    Would that convince people Khan has an improved chin?

    If not what else would he need to do?

    Khan has to drop his hands and be hit flush by a 6 punch combonation from Maidana, then react like margarito and smile.

    Then Khan gets re classified from a glass jaw to a shaky chin

    Wow you cant make that simple connection? The 's' key is near the 'd' key, maybe it's possible that the wrong key was mistakenly struck? Go on try it, use your initiative for once.

    You actually have to get your chin tested to pass the test. THis doesn't mean I want to see Khan go pull a margarito. Getting hit to be macho is lame.

    khan wont shut up haters becuase he will be to good for anyone to land good enough shots enough times to stop him.

    instead he will show good defence,and tko people all over the place from outboxing them.

    the best chin is the one that dont get hit!.

    and let people belive he has a weak chin,that will only make them tune in and hope he gets KO'ed,but be left everytime wasting money seeing him win big again and again.

    guess him,all his money and all his fans dont care about silly little haters who will be left disappointed each time they see him win big.

    If he can trade punches with Maidana without going down, then he will get the respect of ESB.

    Khan needs to let Maidana hit him and Maidana's fist needs to shatter when he lands on Khan

    I'd prefer the Mayorga vs Trinidad one, where he sticks his chin out, takes three flush shots, and then does a dance

    Start at 4:23

    Nothing will ever shut them up.

    "He gonna get his ass handed to him by Barrera" --> "B.b.b.b.b.but Barrera was shot, cut, small!"
    "Kotelnik's gotta give him a boxing lesson" --> "b.b.b.b.but Kotelnik was never any good and has no punch"
    "Maidana's gonna KTFO Khan" - let's see how that works out, but Maidana KTFO people regardless of the chin they have. But one thing is for sure, the haters are praying for the KO to unleash all the Khan trash while they have their built-in excuses ready in case he gets past the "overrated, crude, B-level Argentinean cab driver."

    IMO Khan-Maidana is a TREMENDOUS fight at the very top of the 140lbs division, too bad the winner won't get his props (Khan: Maidana was B-level, Maidana: Khan was glass chinned), while the loser will be dragged down to the dust (Khan: glass jawed hypejob, Maidana: toldyouso (no you didn't).

    In reality the haters care about Khan very much (for a different reason), so one way or another, they will follow his career while it lasts, so Amir won them.

    Not sure it will help convince people his chin has improved...he still would have went down, Maidana or not. If he were to get knocked down by a massive puncher in Maidana, and then got back up to stop Maidana...that will show how big his heart is more than anything.

    This is not the bout for Khan to show people his chin has improved. If he attempts to test his chin against Maidana (like Pacquiao did against Cotto)...he will be knocked out. He needs to outbox Maidana for 12 rounds, maybe even pushing for a late TKO stoppage...but it's a bout that he needs to keep full concentration for 3 minutes of each round. Maidana is relentless, and if Khan gets careless...Maidana will catch up with him.

    Khan takes a full power flush shot from Maidana, Khan smiles while Maidana's entire arm disintegrates into pieces. The one armed Maidana collapses to the canvas and is counted out.

    Some funny **** in here people, props to the Margarito and Mayorga suggestions lol

    Seriously though, Amir Khan will always have question marks regarding his chin, it's a history thing, it's a part of who he is now.

    I hope he beats Maidana, that would be a good achievement for him at this stage, his ambition to fight the best is encouraging too and he gets credit for coming back from the Prescott defeat and getting himself back on the Boxing map.

    I still haven't made a pick on this fight and Khan's chin AND skills have a lot to do with that, I'm waiting until I've seen the weigh-in before I lay a bet on this one.
