    Most of the people in this thread are literally not fit to breath the same air as some of the fighters they have mentioned.

    Lewis, Tyson, Hatton, Wlad etc... Glass Jawed? (Ok.. maybe Wlad) Take it from somebody who has boxed. You get hit clean by a big guy? Unless you're Oliver McCall... you ain't gettng up any time soon.

    Thomas Hearns.
    He had it all, except a good beard. I you could get though that brutal jab, and connect flush, Hearns would go DOWN.

    A lot of fighters mentioned here weren't glass-jawed by any stretch. It's overstated with a lot of fighters.

    Roy Jones Jr. I mean c'mon. I seriously laugh the **** out loud when dudes try to say that his jaw got worse because of age

    :nut -

    Ricky Hatton spent his whole career fighting with his face first. The reason his chin went was because of his balooning up in weight. His constant binge drinking inbetween fights, which every boxing expert said during Hattons career......."will all eventually catch up with him"........"his career will be short"........"his punch resistance will go".

    Hatton did not have a glass jaw.

    True. Both Mayweather and Pacquiao landed flush shots on Hatton and Pacquiaos KO punch was right on the chin. I think hatton didnt even see the punch.

    Good shout putting this up. But haters will hate.
    For people who rate Wlads jaw in the same bracket as Lewis, could you honestly see the big ukrainian taking a lot of these shots, or standing in the pocket willing to take them as Lewis does?
    My vote for weak chinned champs would be Oliver McCall. His chin was made of dried horse ****.:lol: Has i heard someone brilliantly say on here before.
