    Yeah Khan is someone who has legitimate problems with his chin. I think that's been more then proven and until then I can't possibly pick Khan against anyone with a talent and some pop. And the lightweight division is one with a bunch of a power, I mean even Casamayor has a ton of power, one shot power. And then go jump a division and possibly even 2 and match Khan up against a guy with huge power? I don't care what they did with headgear on I don't see how anyone picks Khan in that matchup when he has this giant red flag in his chin.

    If Khan's chin is half as bad as it looks like it might be, he isn't going to win a lot of fights against the top tier charging forward recklessly. Hate to be so down but finally they matched him up with someone who isn't a powder puff puncher, let's see how he reacts. If he gets hit flush and keeps coming then I'll ease off the brake pedal a bit.

    Khan has dodgy chin, for sure. Chances are he'll lose sooner rather than later because of it.

    But Ortiz was hurt and dumped on his arse by a journeyman last time.

    Lets be fair

    Amir Kahn absolutely pulverised him in the amatuers.

    Ortiz is obviousy bigger than Kahn now, so Kahn would have to settle for completely embarassing him instead.

    I only saw highlights of Ortiz' last fight so didn't know he was dropped. Still, he's the bigger and I've never been short of impressed anytime I've seen him.
