I suspect that GGG might be packing some glass in his mandible. There are signs

    GGG gets hit with a left hook by possibly the biggest puncher at MW and his knees buckle slightly for a second = glass jaw.

    Wilder gets hit by journeyman Molina and gets some serious hobbly stank leg = granite chin.

    Come on man you can be a good poster, stop with the double standards. There are videos of him being knocked out in the amateurs and he's been knocked down by journeymen in the pros. I'm not saying he has a glass chin but you use the exact same evidence we've seen of Wilders chin to say that kovalev has a glass jaw and now your claiming GGG has aswell. If you wanna troll this way then that's fine but you can't complain if people don't take you seriously.

    What is a granite chin?

    It really doesn't mean much. Carl Froch is someone who is referred to as having a granite chin but he has been a few times and hurt several times (Both George Groves and Kessler fights and the final round against Abraham).

    I see it more as which fighter has great powers of recovery from being hurt/knocked down. In that reagrd Carl Froch's reputation as a warrior holds up. GGG still has not caught a strong full blooded clean shot from a fighter he hasn't knocked down or hurt early in the fight. Still we don't know how he would react.

    Lemieux was a KO artist with 30 or so KOs.

    He hit GGG flush and all he got for his efforts was a pis-sed off GGG lay even more punishment on him for the remainder of the round.



    GGG's best attribute is NOT his power.

    It's not even his jab.

    Both are good.

    But his best attribute is his chin.

    His feet are slow. He does have an effective jab but Bumlovkin is slow...

    Wishful thinking on your part. Lemiuex has nice pop but he doesn't have one punch KO power. Andy Lee's power is well above Lemiuex'...

    So how exactly does he manage to trap all his opponents in the corners and on the ropes then, because it can't be his footwork can it?

    I didn't say he had bad footwork. I said his feet are S L O W. George Formean - who was also good at cutting off the ring - had good footwork but, last I checked, nobody has ever compared Foreman's footspeed to that of a young Cassius Clay.

    Right so he has effective footwork, and if you could elaborate on how exactly GGG is a bum that would be great.

    I don't think the Triple Duck is a bum. He just loves knocking them over seeing as that's all he's done in the whole of his career...
