    Didn't Kirkland once punch out 50 Cent?

    Calling him a fraud is disrespectful.

    He is a bit of a glass cannon, but he is great to watch.

    Still a good win, both were considered knock out artists at that weight and Angulo had never been knocked out before

    I want to know where these 'chin checkers' get off calling guys like Kirkland frauds. Did he duck all decent punching competition to misrepresent himself whilst claiming he was the best? No, he didn't. He gave it a shot and came up short due to his vulnerability punch resistance wise.

    He was a limited fighter due to his flaws but a great watch and willing to go out on his shield. He deserves our respect despite his limitations.

    Given the number of ring deaths recently, I was hoping the chin checker imbeciles would take a break.

    It's fine to discuss weak chins, but the sheer joy these people take in a damaged, concussed fighter is over the line. It's disrespectful of the risk they all take.

    Exactly these glass balled losers would do well to get a new gimmick.

    Yep. All this “chinchecking” BS is one thing but continiously ridiculing a fighter who gives it his all inside the ring, calling him fraud just because he has low punch resistance is stupid and indeed disrespectful.

    Glass jaws exist in boxing, deniers - and yes, Kirkland has one.
