He hasn’t really been hit flush in his career as he’s so illusive like Floyd, but is he packing a glass jaw?
Usyk is basically a heavyweight Amir Khan. Easy to look like you have a good chin when you're facing pillow fisted guys like AJ
Sir, you have demonstrated you know nothing about mandibular analysis!!! Usyk is a certified Iron Chin Warrior, the complete opposite of a glass jawed fighter!!!
He's taken flush shots from Gassiev, Briedis, Chisora and AJ, and while Fury is widely regarded as pillow fisted relative to his size, he still smashed Usyk with an uppercut from hell in their first fight. Never been down once in any of these fights, or any of his others as a pro for that matter. I'm gonna say no.
No bro, Usyk has been sparked all around the ring every single fight, always falling over, always down, gets hurt and runs from big shots! Total nano-wafer thin chin technology obviously
No like Holyfield before him Usyk is overrated in a lot of ways but no one can deny hes durable. We can argue if his chin is historically good we don't really have enough to tell but if Usyk had a glass chin he'd have went down at Cruiser. After everything Dubois and AJ have some very good power and Usyk would not have went 24 rounds with AJ with a glass jaw.
That uppercut that he ate from Fury would have closed out a lot of heavyweights. Uysk not only took it, but he came roaring back.
He has single digit HW wins against 5 opponents and has lost 26 rounds in them. Theres currently people arguing he would destroy prime Muhammad Ali.
That uppercut Fury hit him with has dropped other heavyweights like Whyte and I think it was the third round of Fury Wilder 3 that he dropped Wilder with it. Fury got everything on that in Usyk one and it was right on the chin and Usyk stayed up.
Uysk has been in with some hellacious punchers are both CW and HW and if he had a glass chin he will still not be undefeated.
Usyk does not have a glass jaw, but he was dropped by a body shot from Beterbiev and was dropped heavily and stopped by Matt Korobov at the 2006 Europeans with headguards on.
