    Name some fighters that you think are harbouring a fragile Glass Jaw but for whatever reason have not been KO'd yet.

    I'll start:

    Lawrence Okolie

    Luke Campbell

    Deontay Wilder

    I don't know about glass jaw but I have to say I've yet to see Hughie Fury's jaw tested even though he seems to have been around for a few years now.

    Hmmm interesting. Never thought about this one really, I'll have to do some research and come back to you.

    One thing for sure is that if he turns up for the fight vs Parker, his chin will be tested. I expect that fight to be very close and competitive.

    I heard about Taylor being under suspicion recently from someone, I'm not sure if it was you or not. I am very excited for this fight and Davies with his power will definitely test that chin.

    He's only fought two decent punchers: Lemuiex and Jacobs.
    Lemuiex never landed cleanly
    And Jacobs only landed some weird hooks.
    I say that GGG chin is yet to be tested

    Tyson Fury

    Has been flattened by an old cruiserweight and a random powerless checkoslovakian. Best fighters faced are pillow-fisted Chisora and Wlad who threw about 10 punches in their fight.

    Dubois, didn't like the way he reacted to that punch from the cruiserweight Mendouo

    Whilst I'm not disagreeing with your choice, the punch did hit him on the back and it pushed him forward, instead of on the chin, I think.

    good point, id have to have another look but as i far as i can remember now, was quite high. i wasn't suggesting him as a sure fire walking KO, just one that came to mind

    Wilder has not a proven glass jaw, his chin still needs to be tested against a heavyweight elite puncher, i think his defense and balance would be a bigger problem than his chin against guys like Anthony Joshua or Luis Ortiz.

    He did take a good one off Wlad though and shook it off... :smoking:

    The ONLY reason Wilder's glass jaw is not "proven" is that he has faced only tomato cans, washed up "name" opponents like Lyakhovich, and carefully selected mediocre fringe contenders.

    And even some of these scrubs have either had the fraud on the canvas or wobbled him. The signs are not good for his remaining vertical long when he FINALLY fights a live body!

    O'Hara Davies will get dropped by Taylor, perhaps for good.
