    I don't think Alvarez is getting KO'd... Mayweather hasn't stopped anyone decent in YEARS, and the only reason why he knocked out glass jawed Ortiz was because Ortiz put his chin out there and LET Floyd do it.

    Glass jaws exist in boxing, It's the duty of Zakman and the other chincheckers to educate the hordes of uneducated fanboys who deny the existence of glass jaws. I like Canelo myself... but his chin isn't 100% proven yet. Just accept the existence of glass jaws, nobody's telling you that you support a guy because he has a glass jaw..

    I think Ruiz has a better chin than Alvarez

    Relax. Glass jaws are part of this sport, and astute boxing fans will analyze the relative punch resistance of combatants in a major fight. This is what is being done here.

    Now, why don't you move along to one of the many Alvarez hero-worship threads being posted today. I am sure you will be much more at home with your fellow fanboys.:hi:

    Possibly Canelo's chin isn't all that proven. He ate some shots from Josesito but to be fair there was a big size difference.

    Evander Holyfield, James Toney, Chris Eubank, Mike Tyson, and Marvin Hagler would disagree with this statement.

    Canelo has probably a 6-7 in the chin department by my estimation. Not glass but probably not super great either. He did walk through Joseito Lopez's shots and although he was hurt (briefly) against Cotto to his credit Canelo recovered very fast. He was also somewhat green at the point and that was a money punch by Cotto, if Canelo was packing glass that should have at least taken him off his feet.

    I believe you need to have an abysmal chin to get KO'd by Floyd above 140 pounds. Canelo's chin is not that bad IMO. If Floyd beats him it will be by decision.

    The problem is that they have an obvious agenda, ontop of the fact that tey have absolutely NO clue on glass chins.

    Canelo has great whiskers, dude sparred the monster GGG and did well, and didn't get KTFO like many heavyweights and cruisers would have been in his place, GGG even praised him and said Canelo is the best opponent he's ever sparred with

    but Drainedelo is another mather, only time ginger has been wobbled was against fat Cotto, and he was weight drained for that match

    and i'm afraid the one we'll see fighting Floyd will be Drainedelo

    :lol::lol::lol:

    Listen Mexi-Fan Boy Glass Jaws exist in Boxing and we discuss them on ESB.

    If Mayweather KO's your hero then he has a Glass Jaw and you will have to accept that.

    Explain? Whats the obvious agenda :think Seems to me that the chincheckers know chins... Zakman, Rico and the retired Metal Mandible are right 90% of the time.

    "Hagler" had one of the most iron chins of all time and he was a brotha.
