I remember Gary McArthur on Prizefighter - Super Featherweights being all over the place on rubber legs after taking some timid looking shots.
Enzo's isn't great but it's nowhere near as bad as some make out. Those shots from Frenkel, Haye and Afolabi. How many other Cruiser weights would have taken them?
What about the punch from Mcphilbin that had Enzo falling about like a pisshead on his birthday? My 90 year old Nan is more sturdy than Enzo, she would have smiled at the punch and kept on coming.
It's gone now for sure. But people were slating his punch resistance way before that fight. Can't believe some are suggesting it's worse than Khan's
I think It's a toss up between the two, they both react the same when hit hard, they lose control of their legs, both try to get up when knocked down in fairness to them, they also share the same survival nous, which is worse than zero.
TBH i kinda feel bad for the Team Challenge in Nations Cup this week. How many minutes does Enzo's chin hold up?.
If its 3 minutes id be mildly proud of Enzo, Im going for 17 seconds including the forthcoming 10 count.
:rofl The thing is i'd tell Ozil to do that, the longer the fight goes the more he allows Enzo to settle. He's best just steaming him like he did Jeff Evans and letting hands go. 2013 Ovil will challenge Cleverly for a WBO title can see it happening.
You're right, just steam in on him, if he gets Enzo off balance he only needs to land, it don't need to be anything big either, Enzo legs will go, he might get back up the first time but it's as good as over. Orvil can land the big punch second time around.
Sadly, I think Audley's is up there with the worst. He may only have had a few KOs, but he has spent his entire career avoiding being hit. When it happens, he goes down. The VERY first contact from Price put him on jelly legs, as did Haye. He has no chin, which is why he looks petrified when someone throws a punch. Sure, Price has immense power - but if domestic challenger level chins like McDermott can drag himself off the canvas 3 times against Price to beat the count and similarly Sexton too AND last 5 rounds of punishment ... the fact that the first glancing blow after 40 seconds put Audley on ***** street speaks volumes for his punch resistance/ heart.
Enzo for me. I will never bet on an Enzo win again. Forgot the fella he was fighting, but anyway he was winning and then got cracked in the last round. Dropped and was counted out. Pissed me off that did. At least it makes his fights exciting though.
