    I’m sorry when did Breazeale hurt Wilder? He hit him yes. Hurt? No.

    That punch would barely even register with someone like Holyfield, Mercer etc.

    Whyte should have BUD LIGHT tattooed on his chin, as in aluminum can.

    There will literally always be people who throw stupid criticism. How the heck do you know that punch wouldn’t have registered? Fury never fought them so you can’t possibly know. Also that uppercut was almost like a double uppercut cause it ricocheted off Whyte’s chin.

    Wilder clearly backed off after being stunned

    If he did back off which rewatching the fight I’m struggling to see the exact moment he was stunned. He could only have backed off for a couple seconds since he knocked him out within 2 and a half minutes.

    AJ, Povetkin and now Fury all caught him with the uppercut. He needs to work on his defence to it and also move his feet quicker.

    Whyte's chin has been exposed and cracked so often now that his punch resistance now going forward could lead to permanent damage for him.

    Couple that with his gameness and will/heart to carry on when hurt is not a great combination for his long-term health.

    Just reminding everyone of that fragile mandible Whyte's packing. He's taking another canvas nap against Itauma, count on it

    Yeah, Whyte has a glass jaw, no question. It may not be as bad as Wilder's but it's still very fragile

    Itauma will shatter that glass, and earlier than people think too!

    Whyte is a Glass Jawed Fighter. There’s no denying it.

    Imagine what the uppercut Lewis landed on Klitschko would have done to Whyte.

    He does seem uniquely susceptible to uppercuts.

    I wouldn’t say Fury is a light puncher though i just think he doesn’t sit down in his punches too often.
