His chin isn't terrible, when you get clipped with a clean shot after you've thrown and are over extended your going to get wobbled or Ko'd! His mistakes are caused by his way of think and that causes him "to react" the wrong way at times. He isn't loosing to poor competition his opponents are good solid fighters!
This young man must re-evaluate sp.) ha! himself and get his personal conceipts in line with what he wants to accomplish in boxing. He needs to combine speed with power but rely on his speed to set up power. He comes to heavy to soon and winds up premature. He has enough pop to get the job done but he needs to concentrate on winning rounds first then his opponent must come to him and that makes his power shots more meaningfull. His approach doesn't match his abilities he needs to think about 10 or 12 rounds and clearly being the dominat boxer that thought process could be the key to him becoming an elite top ten fighter capable of challenging for titles.

A fighter can follow a game plan for 11 and a half rounds then get caught and be in trouble and get stopped.

Khan has skills
Khan has speed
Khan has the willingness to step in with top guys
Khan is wiling to have a tear up

But there is something missing definitely. Someone mentioned about somthing in his brain in an earlier post which i sort of understand but whether it's a psychological thing or a weak chin thing doesn't change the fact then when he is on the receiving end of a bomb things start to unravel.


Gameplan?....The best laid plans.....
