    Do irish fighters in general have good chins, Wayne Mac one of the best chins ever, Collins solid as a rock, Mcguigan good chin, Frampton has a good chin, Macklin is a tough SOB, of course some have had poor chins Dunne for example but in general have the Irish fighters innately tough and solid chin
     
  2. Not so ridicolous like Brits, but also glass .. maybe stronger glass. You know this beer bottles you can throw in the air and they still don't shatter?? That's a Irish chin .. it can endure a little bit, but eventually it gets shattered.

    The general has to be one of the most troll filled forums on the Internet. The mods are shockingly bad.

    Yes they do. Add Duddy and Andy Lee to that list, to my knowledge neither have been floored as pros. Eamonn Magee was also a tough mofo.

    Of course there are the exceptions to the rule as you know, like Dunne but for the most part Irish fighters are pretty tough.

    LOL, Irish fighters have glass jaws now? well I'm Irish, let me hit you my hardest, then you can hit me your hardest, we will continue this until one of us drops, then we'll see who has the glass ;)
     
  9. Not now .. they had, have and will have glass jaws.

    Is this a invitation for a sparring? Where are you ranked in boxrec? Which division? I am a CW who step up to HW soon. If you are at least Top 200, let's meet.

    jaw discussion is ridiculous. Nothing to do with where your from or your effing color.

    topic starter obviously trolling but theres people that actually take this moronic argument seriously

    you know back in the day just about all Irish fighters were Iron Chinned Warriors. Not sure what has happened over time as most of them today like their Brit cousins have Glass Jaws.

    That's just a random list of fighters lol How does Lee for instance have a glass jaw? He has yet to be knocked down in 20 or more fights and we know it's not down to a good defense.

    As punch resistance goes Irish fighters can definitely hold a shot. Arguing with stupidity is quite taxing so I'll leave you bunch of chin obsessed clowns to it.
