Chins can toughen up

At age 22, a male's physique is completely developed. Chins can only get worse.

 

No. They. Can't.

Or in this case:

No. They. Khan't

He is a Glass Jawed joke and will continue to be a Glass Jawed joke.

 

your chin cannot improve, i have never been down and have had everything from my nose broken three times to being hit with bottles and jumped by crowds of 20. Never been wobbled or put down to the canvas, outside or inside the ring, im afraid you have a glass jaw

im afraid if youve been sparked twice by the time your twenty, you have a china chin. Admittadly the only time ive been slightly wobbled was by a punch to the temple in a sparring session, but then again that punch is known to disrientate everyone momentarily.

im not bragging, just have a thick jaw and skull, takes more than one crack to the chin to wobble me, dunno what it is, but its definately god given looking at some of the china chinned fighters out there.

EDIT: ok i have been wobbled, but jjust that once lol

 

Well, stranger things have happened in the past, chins improving or getting weaker are not that unusual in this sport, just rarely happen. But in Khan's case, an improved chin could still mean a weak chin. Remember he was always regarded as a chinny amateur, was dropped in the pros, and despite having experience in these situations and having fairly good recovery, he was stopped by Prescott in 1. Khan has a very weak chin. Having so weak legs doesn't help it either.

 

youch. :rofl
must....



grasp....



straw...

 

Is there any evidence, can anybody name a fighter who suffered Shattering knock outs early in their career who came back later in their career with a much improved beard.

 

who will take the bait today?

 

Cotto was stunned many times and knocked down by Torres at LWW, but took much better shots at WW. PacMan was stopped at the lower weight classes (well, by body shots) but seem to have an excellent chin nowadays. Vazquez and Rafa Marquez were both knocked out early in their career, and yet they built a HOF career in the past few years. There are many good examples.

 

crazy but i would say than khan's chin is more suspect that cintron

 

i hate to say it but cintron got an abrahams tank for a jaw in comparison. just no heart.

 

Fighters gaining weight and improving their chins.:think

 

A fighter might appear to show a better chin only because the fragility of his chin might have been exaggerated in the first place.
The minute a guy gets KO'd, or even knocked down a few times, people starts screaming that his chin is china. Thus, when he shows even the slightest bit of resiliency in later fights, there might be a tendency to conclude his chin is getting better.

 

foreman's got better, briggs' too.

 

khan's fragile chin is NOT exaggerated tho

ive heard of people doing neck exercises to increase their ability to take a punch but i dont kno how much that helps

sorta like mayweather does/did with the head gear and chain/weight at the edge of the ring. nebody kno what im talkin about?
