His famous fight with Robbie Lawler, a fight he was dominating before his fragile mandible gave out!

Just thought i'd post this one as well, one of the great MMA slugfests.

"One of the worst glass jaws of alltime!" That's ridiculous. He just got Ko'd by huge punchers like Schilling and Lawler which could happen to anyone. He doesn't have a glass jaw. P4P biggest puncher in MMA history.

 

He doesn't have the a glass jaw?? That has got to be one of the worst cases of glass jaw denialism that I have ever seen :roflatsch

Manhoef has no chin, none.. As evidenced by the fact that he has been utterly annihilated not once, not twice.... I think you get the picture. Manhof is a textbook example of a glass jawed fighter, you don't get KTFO like Manhoef if your china isn't glass!

 

Getting KO'd by guys like Lawler, Shilling and a huge puncher like Sefo who is about 50 pounds naturally bigger than him doesn't mean he has a glass jaw. I'm not saying the guy has a good jaw but it's not glass. **** defence, **** ring IQ but not a glass jaw.

Guys get KO'd in K1 all the time, even the greats.

If he had a true glass jaw he would have been stopped in his brawls with Cyborg. I've seen him go to war many times and take good shots.

Saying he has one of the worst jaws of alltime is just a dumb statement. There are many, many fighters with worse punch resistance.

 

Getting utterly annihilated by ALL of them means he does though...

Listen, I'm a huge fan of K-1, but lots of those guys have glass, or at least shaky jaws. Aerts, Le banner, Cro Cop, Bernardo, Hoost, Leko Hug etc. all at the very least had shaky punch resistance, anyways that's a topic for a different thread.

Manhoef definitely has one of the worst beards of any known MMA/kickboxer out there, the proof is in the pudding. If his chin wasn't glass then he wouldn't been KTFO as brutally, and frequently...

 

Also, can you think of anyone who gets "planked" like Manhoef does? Almost every time he gets KO'd he hits the deck like a piece of falling wood

 

I can think of at least 20-30 kickboxers/mma fighters with worse punch resistance than Manhoef.

 

Not all of his stoppage losses are like that. For starters that stoppage loss to Sefo was a bad call imo.

 

Most of them are... Bad call??? You want glass jawed Manhoef to die?

 

Rated kickboxers/mma fighters??? Not talking about glass jawed journeyman here.. Sure. name 30. Go!

He recovered and beat the count. He still had the opportunity to win that fight. With a guy like Manhoef all he needed was one punch to victory. A lot of these stoppage losses are when he's fighting opponents over his natural weight. This guy is a natural WW. If an iron chinned WW was fighting HWs they would be getting KO'd too. Now I'm not saying he has a good chin but to say it is one of the worst chins in history I think is ridiculous.

 

Its noticeable how much muscle mass he lost in the last few years,he was juiced out of his head..

 

LOL................ Half of those guys have WAY better chins than Manhoef.
