Why exactly do people say Haye's chin's so bad?!?

edit

 

When someone like Vitali Klitschko or Riddick Bowe lands a punch on you I would imagine it has a more damaging effect than say your normal cruiserweight or someone like Lolenga Mock at a few stone lighter.
For Haye to win he cannot get hit too much.

It's not only the big right hands he has to worry about. I reckon Wlad could drop him with a jab. He's got to get at Wlad quick, else he loses.

 

Because people are jelous that british boxing fans have got such a good fighter.

 

Because people misread or misinterpret what they've seen/ have heard about in his fights.

Yeah, he aint Tua or Tyson but he's not glass-jawed as some would have you believe.

As said before it's his temples that cause him troubles, his only loss came from gassing out in a VERY hard fight he took on VERY early in his career, and when he was put down in various fights he got up to win by KO.

 

I guess people are even more jealous of the Ukrainians because Wlad gets much more **** regarding his chin and he's been hit by true heavyweights.

 

Exactly my thoughts.

 

It's not as bad as people make out but it's not brilliant either.

 

I agree, but hope Haye gets to him first.

 

Doesn't even Haye admit it?

 

:yep

Yeah, and it's what makes his fights entertaining. He can be hit and hurt but also has the power to seperate you from your senses. :deal

 

Exactly. The issue is that this guy had trouble taking punches at a lighter weight, from LIGHTER fighters. His chin may have been adequate at cruiserweight, but if you have a shaky chin in that division, it's almost certainly gonna be glass when you're getting hit by the big boys.

 

You mean in the same way Pac was knocked out by 7st guys?
