    Seriously, it doesn't matter how far removed from his hey day, I just cannot imagine Enzo being good enough to do that to jones!

    Macca finished on his feet and never hit the canvas once, whereas Roid was out cold on the canvas and needed smelling salts to revive him.

    This would be an entertaining fight if it came off.

    This match-up....

    :think

    What a spectacle. No one should be allowed to attend it live without prior warning of the risk to their health. Glass WILL shatter violently.

    Enzo Mac has one of the absolute worst Chins of any fighter active today, in any weight class. Seven stoppage losses, many of which were succinctly vicious. He's facing an old Jones, who has seriously liable punch resistance himself, just not "quite" as bad as his.

    This is a meeting between two fighters who should actually be retired, in my opinion. It'll be a matter of who lands clean first. RJJ is currently far removed from his days of spectacular greatness, but this fight is a toss-up.

    He most definitely could. But it's just as likely to go the other way too.

    Roy would've been out cold for 30 minutes after shipping this left hook. He would've been in a worse state from the first KD than Enzo was from the second one which sparked him.

    10:26 second KD at 11:18

    Enzo might be packing glass in his mandible but Roy's packing enough to fill 1000 bottle banks.

    Roy needs to fight Glowacki. Either way this is a fight between two of the worst Glass Jaws in Boxing. Neither of these guys can take even the lightest of punches without being dazed.

    I hope they have a small bulldozer on stand by to clean up all the glass after it's over.

    Is that supposed to suggest Enzo can take a punch better than Roy?

    Have you ever watched either man fight? You should try it sometime before talking sh*t like every other genius in this thread. Leaving yourself open and taking haymakers does not mean your chin is glass.

    Can you imagine Roy getting up after that first shot? I can't.

    I thought it was the general consensus among boxing fans across the world that Roy's jaw is forged out of the most brittle substance in the known universe? There isn't a single human being in the history of our species who was packing more glass in their mandible section than Roy is. It's just not physically possible. Enzo is positively iron-jawed compared to him.

    Enzo is just chinny enough that even shot to pieces Jones could desk him.

    Also, what weight would this be at?
    Hasnt Enzo been campaigning at 175 in recent years?
