Khan beating Prescott won't prove anything about his chin imo. Kats is better choice

[Kev]

I'm not convinced on this 'he needs to beat Prescott to prove his chin can hold' argument.

It wouldn't convince anybody, the whole argument is silly.

If Amir rematched Prescott, he sure as well wouldn't trade with him. He'd keep on the outside and try and box his way to the win.

His plan would be to not get hit rather than test to see if his chin has improved.

If he came through it and won easily by keeping away nobody would be convinced. They would just say Prescott was shit and he was never going to hit Khan because of the speed difference and that Khan was a coward who just hit and ran.

So what is really being tested is Khan's ability to box safe, I imagine it would be a dull fight.

Michael Katsidis would be a better and more fan friendly test because he's 100% pressure. Khan would get hit on the arms, elbows, body, it would be a rough fight.

He needs to go in with a top fighter who can punch to silence the doubters for sure.
Prescott isnt top level although he can punch.
Beating light punchers will just bring bad reviews , we know Khan can box , lets see him in the trenches with someone top draw.

Yes but someone who can punch but is too slow to land won't answer any critics.

Look at Wlad. Did rematching Lamon Brewster and winning easily prove his chin problem? Hardly, he just showed that he can stay behind his jab and not get hit.

Fighting someone like a prime Holyfield or Lennox Lewis however who could get past his jab and test him would likely give his chin a much sterner test.

What I'm saying is I that those who grumble when Khan faces a slick boxer who can't punch, will be just as unimpressed when given a big puncher who is slow and can't box.

At least Kats is proven borderline world class. A win over him proves Khan is top drawer and ready to take on the champions of the division.

Maidana would be a good opponent too, but I imagine if Khan boxed his way to a win over him people would just say he was overated and couldn't box either at this stage.

I'm already offering a sig beet - the first time in 7 years - that Katsidis floors Khan.

Khan will NEVER take that fight so I think your sig is safe, Missy. Kat's hellacious presure will have Khan thinking twice about signing on the dotted line, for sure.

If it were ever to happen, my hat off to Khan cuz it would be a long night for him...

Khan needs to fight a puncher to prove his chin is the most pathetic statement constantly repeated on here.

The boy has a china chin. It will always be china. Any fighter with the ability to land a half-decent punch has the chance of sparking him.

Khan could beat Mayweather then get KO'd by Urango. That's his career.

Have you been doing an ICB and copying my quotes like he (allegedly) did with Mick?

I made exactly the same statement last week. Of course I was laughed at, probably.

I wanna see Khan v Katsidis.

I pick Katsidis by early KO

I don't read your posts beyond the first line or title. I never saw that.

It's only natural you got laughed at. Anyone tries to argue it with me knows they'll get owned (i really am reading too much ICB.. and Mick)

Thanks fuck i'm not the only one who thinks this. I've been saying it for ages. It just means that particualar puncher didn't knock him out, but the next one might.

Why do you guys go on....

Anyone can be knocked out with a single punch. Being knocked out doesn't prove anything about a fighters ability to withstand punishment without being knocked out. It's unknown physiology. If it were known, combat sports as we know it would be banded.

No... If it could be measured there'd just be a hell of a lot less fighters out there.
