This Rahman is a shell of the very mediocre fighter that prime Rahman was. Zuri freaking Lawrence was able to keep him very honest and James Toney was beginning to spank him in their rematch. Rahman can't hurt Wlad, and he's vulnerable at this stage to getting KTFO by a Klitschko jab.
if Toney was able to wobble Rahman, he's in trouble once Wlad lands anything. Even the wind from Wlad's punch would be able to knock him down at this point.
While I do expect Rahman to be knocked out, Zakman's unhealthy obsession with perceived "glass jaws" is beginning to worry me.
Sorry, sister, that's not true; I guess we can rule you out as a history professor. I reiterate: most people--other than the five rabid A-Force fans in the world--suggested it was only a matter of time before he got knocked out. And you act like like predicting Sprott to knock him out makes you some sort predictions guru. (Ahem, put a fork in Obama, he's done.) Dude, you were claiming he'd get knocked out every time out-it was only a matter of time before the odss caught to you. It's like the guy who picks the underdog every single time and then acts like he has some kind of insight when one finally pulls it off. Actually, that too sounds a lot like you. Is Rahman's chin worse than Wlad's? Oh, probably, but that in and of itself is not a good reason to pick him. There are some many other factors to consider from skill to age to height and reach. Clearly, Rahman doesn't have the best chin, clearly Wlad is a big puncher. Almost everybody is picking Wlad to win by KO. Which brings us to a question-assuming Wlad does KO Rahman, how much credit are you going to claim for calling it?
I dread to think :roll: It seems everyone is saying 5 or 6 rounds, I'll be amazed if Rahman makes it to the 3rd, personally - even if WALDO does decide to fight passive again.
Rahman has not beat ANYONE of note in years. This in addition to his Glass Jaw will make it very hard for him to win. Wlad also has a Glass Jaw and Rahman could land a haymaker and end it but I expect Rahman to get his Glass Jaw shattered in 5 rounds or less.
The guy in his prime had a good chin no great but solid but that chin was craked by Lewis and Maskeav, if you see now He gets ocasionaly rocked by feather fisted fighters, He is past his best and with his chin craked i don't see Him last long against Wladimir.
Rahman had a "good" chin?? Puh-leez. He was getting knocked the f*ck out in his prime, and things haven't gotten any better since. Rahman has a terrible glass jaw, one of the worst among rated fighters since I've been following boxing. He's been starched more times, in more devastating fashion then just about any active HW. That is the DEFINITION of a glass chin.:yep
How the hell can the guy who quit on his stool be allowed to take this fight and the guy who made him quit be overlooked! This should be lights out stepping in the ring not "Hey coach my head hurts" "Its ok son you just got a small planet growing out of your face!" This content is protected
Go ahead and change your name to "Glass Jaw". That's all you ever ****in talk about. Everytime someone gets knocked out he has a glass jaw. This is boxing my friend, have some respect for the sport and the guys who take beatings trying to make a living. Rico "Keyboard Warrior" Spadafora, do us a favor and STFU, you're pathetic.
No. When certain fighters get knocked out MULTIPLE times then they have a Glass Jaw. I do not claim that every fighter that gets knocked out has a Glass Jaw. You are incorrect. Rahman has been knocked out silly several times. So in your opinion his Chin is fine? :huh
This is boxing, and a lot of figthers have shaky chins. The way to tell that is by examining how many times they've been starched and how brutally. Guys like Glass-Jawed Rahman specialize in getting knocked the f*ck out. I have little doubt he will deliver for us again this weekend!!
