    Listen, denier. You may not like it, but glass jaws exist in boxing - and many, many fighters have them. The sooner you face this reality, the more realistic appraisal of this sport you will be able to make.

    If somebody gets bounced up and down off the canvas like a basketball, or they get knocked out cold, chances are they don't take the best shot. Accept it. Having a solid chin is critical in this sport.

    Cuba is #1 per capita. England is a close #2 though.

    He's Valuev without the whiskers. Only a slight step above Ty Fields, and it remains to be seen if his beard is, in fact, just as fragile.

    Pointing out that certain fighters have glass jaws is not "making fun of them." :nono It's simply stating reality.

    You need to accept reality. Trust me, you'll feel better.:yep

    Why are people getting so touchy when the subject of chins is brought up? Some fighters have weak chins and others have good ones, they exist in boxing. I think one important thing that chincheckers forget is that certain fighters can go through numerous wars throughout their career and still have their faculties and chins in tact (Morales, Julio Cesar Chavez) whereas other fighters who go through one or two wars lose most of their punch resistance and decline (Meldrick Taylor, Terry Norris, Mugabi).

    These pictures you make of glass jaws look far too much like metal.. You're confusing me!

    Yeah, for a while I thought they were trying to mean that the fighter in said avatar had an iron chin.
