    Mediocre defense + weak chin = Amir Khan

    If he was really weight drained we'd see it by now, but clearly that isn't the case.

      If he moved up and showed an iron chin you'd have a valid point, but he hasn't.

        yep.

        brandon rios looks like he came out of an intervention for an eating disorder at his weigh ins, that doesn't seem to have bothered him.

          It could be a factor, but he's never going to have a Chavez chin at any weight.

          It's always going to be a weakness, and if he's going to resurrect his career, he has to fight to his strengths and protect his weaknesses, meaning not getting hit with bombs and learning to deal with pressure.

          Besides going up in weight means your facing bigger guys who hit harder.

            No, he gets KO'd because he lacks a solid defense. Khan's defense consists of pushing, running, and flurrying you hardly ever see him roll with punches or actually use head movement.

            When you lack defense you're going to get hit by BIG shots, I really don't think Khans chin is all that bad it's just he gets caught with some heavy ****in' shots that'll pretty much put anyone out, that left hook he took from Garcia would of probably laid out a majority of fighters. I guess anyone would look like they have a glass jaw if they took the type of shots khan takes.

            Also him training with Freddy Roach whose pretty much an offense makes the best defense type of trainer doesn't help his case much.

                I don't know about Khan being drain but I would like for him to fight at 147. Maybe Khan can move up to 147 and fight Ortiz next year.

                  I think Khan is going to stay away from punchers for a few years.

                    earlier it was because he was draining too much yes, now, the above is the answer, he can't box worth sht

                    one of the most appauling defenses for a boxer so well known, can't move his head worth sht, can't block worth sht, every top fighter from maidana to peterson to danny just tee off on him with power shots

                    khan actually now has a decent chin, not great, but not glass
