I'm not saying he is weak chinned, but he was dropped 2 times early by Casa. And later KOd and Hurt by Diaz (Through accumulation though). He hasn't got a glass chin, that's not what I meant.
Yeah I agree, he's a solid guy at lightweight and the frame is good for moving up a couple of weights too. If he has a decent chin, then surely the boxing skills can be worked on.
Why wouldn't you? He can box and punch, and he's tall and athletic. He's also proved that he can fight on the big screen as he's been on ESPN several times.
When he got wobbled by light-hitting Graham Earl? Or when he got KDed twice by Casamayor, who had never scored a knockdown against a decent opponent at 135? No knock on Katsidis, but his chin seems average at best, and he does cut very easily.
Cutting and chin are 2 different things,he just doesn't have defense and walks in the punches but the chin is great,Juan Diaz would have KOed him if not
It's the manner in which he sparked him out that everybody is so impressed with. nobody has claimed him o be world class but with performances like that i worry he never will be because top rankers are going to avoid him like the plague!
i'd built a shrine dedicated to presscot if he one upped his khan destruction, by annihalating that other hypejob quicker.
