    hopkins has never been ko or tko, so i doubt he will be ko, but if he does get ko why would he have a glass jaw?

    i think there is a chance of a tko if his work rate isnt up to pascals level, and pascal would have to get a good combination going in the later rounds...but i think a tko could be possible.....


    however a ko, never, and even if it did happen after 58 fights a man gets ko i dont think he has a glass jaw...

    so imo ......stupid thread

    a TKO at the end of a long career does not equate to a glass jaw. I dont think that'll even happen though. If he loses it'll be on the cards. This is his 58th fight I think, and I can recall seeing him knocked down only once, maybe twice.

    Well if Amir Khan has a glass jaw with only 1 loss against a noted puncher than surely Hopkins must have one as well. :huh

    If Hopkins Gets KO`d Does He Have A Glass Jaw?

    No, "glass jaw" is an antiquated term not used in boxing much anymore. If he got KO'd he'd be said to have an Amirkhan jaw.

    26 wins and 16 KO's by the Frenchie Canadian, that is 61-62% KO percentage

    He isn't knocking out anyone especially B-Hop who is a legend an ATG and one of the best defense in boxing and never been stopped.

    ...what, almost 46? There's a slight possibility for real Father Time in the late rounds and a standing TKO by accumulation and via better stamina. We'll see. :hey

    No way.

    Jean Pascal has a decent punch.

    Stupid thread.

    It is shameful to utter the words glass jaw and Bernard Hopkins in the same sentence.

    ridiculous thread. He`s never once shown he has a glass jaw and he`s been in there with heavy hitters during his long career. Nothing in boxing is out of the question, so I`ll humor you and say that in the hypothetical situation that Hopkins gets stopped it in no way says he has a glass chin.

    I`m pretty damn positive this isnt going to happen though.

    You`re trying to compare Khan who is just starting to compete at a world class level to someone like Hopkins who has been fighting at the elite level for almost as long as Khans been alive. Hopkins has proven he`s got a chin. So if he gets stopped it means nothing. Khan has proven nothing at this point. Feel me?
