Chin Talk: Updated Glass Jaw Rankings

ydksab, Leaving Brooks out of that list says it all

 

1. Jones Jr.
2. Kirkland
3. Green
4. Ortiz
5. Fraudley
6. J. M. Lopez
7. Maccarinelli
8. Litzau
9. Hatton
10. Dawson

 

I don't know about Dawson. I think I would put Linares in his place.

Mitchell and Molina are under close watch.

 

Amir Khan has an abysmal glass jaw, but he got up within 15 seconds every time he got floored. Roy Jones was completely asleep after getting floored by Glen Johnson.

Anyway, good list. It's good to see someone talking about Chin, the most important asset any boxer should have.

 

Why has Mike Jones vanished from the list? Damn, chin checking in this place has gone down hill. Turbotime made a better list than you all.

 

Being down and having a glass chin are two entirely different things.

Take Israel Vasquez for example...

 

Dawson and Hatton?!

 

Guys, the glass jaw rankings are for boxers who have a good level of general talent but can not take a punch. Guys like Allan Green and Ronald Hearns have NO talent whatsoever. If you put them in the rankings, then I could find you a thousand bums who have losing records and have been KOed dozens of times.

 

My only alteration would be to change Dawson to Jawson i.e. Bad Glass Jawson.:rofl

 

The range-seeking jab that Prescott demolished Khan with would NOT have KOed anyone! Glass-jaw-deniers have no legs to stand on. At best, they have rubbery legs.

I'm talking about the punch that turned Khan's legs to jelly, at 0:42

:yep

 

Maccarinelli should be #1. A gust of wind can blow him over nowadays.

Why is Audley in there? He's only been stopped twice, one was with a massive shot that would have KO'd anyone and the other was by Haye, who stopped Chisora, who is widely regarded as having a very good chin.

 

Its a public fourm ya creep.

 

Roy has to be #1 at this point, and I'd have Enzo a bit higher. Otherwise, it's good.
