Can A Glass Jawed Fighter Really Be An ATG?

Thats what I said, he certainly meets the criteria for it chin wise. Time will tell wether he makes the top 20 or 15 ATG Heavyweight list.

 

i enjoy some threads and discussions about 'Glass Jaws' (or in a non-idiots vocab; poor punch resistance) but this is too much Rico!

When you start them at least have some detailed examples or something, this is just lazy......

 

That's one cool avatar mate..

 

Ricos definition of a glass jaw is someone getting KO'ed one time so a ton of ATGs have glass jaws.

 

Well seeing how Rico has Roy Jones Jnr on his glass jaw "rankings" then the answer is yes

 

I think alot of fighters who had glass jaws are all time greats, the truth is their glass jaws probably never got exposed and 1 attribute of being an all time great would be too disguise the weaknesses but in all honesty this thread is a bit crazy because you might aswell say that everyone who gets knocked out has a glass jaw. When you say light puncher, if they punched you, you would probably be knocked out, its not sometimes about the power its where you nail them and technique will make a punch more effective than just having raw power. You can go back and forth with this argument but we all know one thing and that is that you are obsessed with glass and Jaws...I mean the way you always go on about glass jaws is as if your own jaw is made out of concrete slabs

 

all this talk about glass jaws... it's getting old because folks seems to have their own definition of this term, i mean if you really have af 'glass jaw' then you shouldn't get in the ring with the greatest for health reasons, i think too many on esb use the term disrespectful of the boxers in the ring...

 

I think sum1 wiv Glass Jaw done sumfing reallyyyyyyyyyyyyy bad with you:think

 

terry norris isnt an ATG u ****in gimpatsch

 

oK mEiGhT atsch

 

Roy Jones for example ... and Wlad Klitchko
... and probably Amir Khan in the next 15 years :rofl

 

Nah.In their first fight Rahman was beating Lewis to the punch.

 

hmm says everyone has a flaw.... no fighter is perfect and a perfect record doesn't mean otherwise.... it's how well you do with your flaw that sets you apart. Glass jaw or not. Styles make fights...

 

there's plenty more in boxing than just glass chins. you might wanna explore more.
