r.jones shown to have a glass jaw...so did michalczewski have a great chance too win

I don't think his jaw was glass.

 

Jones in his prime did not have a glass jaw. Unfortunately a jaw is an attribute that can fade with age. (See Razor Ruddock, Jake Lamotta, even Chavez).

His chin would not be the make or break aspect in a fight with DM.

i dont think so back then... but who knows

 

Show me the proof that Jones had a glass jaw in his prime, I know you can search all day but you'll never find any.
On the other hand I can find proof that Jones had a solid chin in his prime, just go watch the Hopkins fight where he was hit numerous times with solid straight rights but
was never hurt. There are many fights where his opponents hit Jones with solid shots but he was never hurt. In fact go watch the first Tarver fight.

 

People think that just because Jones looked close to unbeatable in his prime that he was able to avoid every punch from his opponents.
This is completely false, even a fighter with the defensive skills of Whitaker will get hit with solid shots from time to time, you just CAN'T accomplish what Jones did if
you have a glass jaw.

 

DM got KOed at old age to so I guess that means his chin sucks right ?

 

you say when he got older he got hurt easy and ko what you talking about first time was with tarver hello you never even followed his whole carrer so stop that nonsence and he would of killed DM

 

Michalczewski would have gotten his teeth knocked in if Roy fought with one hand tied behind his back. End of story

 

Everyone has an opinion, but the fact of the matter is we will never know for sure.

Michalczewski outjabbed Hill in their primes, and Hill at 34, with a year layoff after losing to Dariusz, managed to land on Roy consistently over 4 rounds.

Dariusz had more power than Virgil Hill and Glen Johnson by far. So it is very possible that Michalczewski lands on Roy's jaw and gets the come-from-behind KO.

That said, I still think a Jones decision is the most likely outcome, but to say Michalczewski had no chance is assanine.

 

he lost all punch resistace whe he shred all the weight after ruiz in such a short time



so no roy still would have schoooled him

 

Styles makes fights. Virgil Hill isn't the same fighter as DM. Hill fought a certain way, which did not compliment Jones style. But Jones got him out in 4 rounds, so this is nothing to make a case out of.

 

If Jones had a Glass Jaw Ruiz would've KO'd him as he caught Jones with a few times with the right hand, the same right hand that dropped Holyfield.

 

Roy was too quick. He wouldn't have been hit clean.

 

did you even watch that fight? jones barely got tapped by hill, the worst i saw was a jab to the body of jones

stop talkin out your ass, for the love of god.

anyway for the TS
montell griffin landed consistently on jones chin with crisp, flush shots and jones was in no way hurt from any of them
hopkins landed plenty of right hand counters too, again doesn't show the slightest sign of being hurt
ruiz landed two consecutive right hands on jones chin, not to mention one more perfect shot later on around round 6

my verdict: no jones doesn't have a glass chin
and michalczewski would get destroyed
