    Heavy KO loss to AJ.
    Heavy KO loss to Sasha.
    Heavy knockdown from Rivas.
    Knocked down by Parker.
    Chisora gave him the smoke in both fights, I really think he should now be considered to be packing the finest china.
    Dillian Whyte has a glass jaw :deal:

    A shootout with David Price would be fun to see. Would make Whyte favourite, obviously but if Price lands on that glass it's game over.

    All of those guys can crack, Povetkin himself got flattened by AJ. Wilder the guy some people LAUGHABLY claim may be the hardest hitting heavyweight ever couldn't put Duhaupas on the floor with 100 punches and Povetkin put him on a stretcher with 1. Heavyweight contender with the worst chin in the last decade is Szpilka, been dropped about 50 times, still went ten with Wilder. Bryant Jennings got stopped by Rivas so his chin is worse?

    Jesus. If Whyte is being called "glass jawed" for getting knocked out by that punch.. then the heavyweight division is glass jawed.

    Also, have to add, where do people like me rank on this list of "Glass Jawed Frauds"?

    Seriously, I know my limits, I don't pretend to be some hard nut or tough guy, I never have and never will, but I can look after myself, I'm not a walking victim and I'm not in some delusion about my own abilities and toughness but..

    If somebody is described as "glass jawed" getting knocked out by a punch like that.. my EGO can't handle it.. in this version of reality just how weak am I as a man?

    That punch would have more than likely killed me, I'm not joking, I don't think my neck, brain, body would have survived that.

    At best I'd be eating through a straw for the rest of my natural life.. if I was lucky enough to still have one.


    So please, I know we are talking boxing and boxers, trained men, the toughest of men, but please remember us "normal" people just wouldn't survive that level of brutality.

    Just imagine, just put yourself in that ring, on the end of that punch, even a trained version of yourself and then think "glass jawed".

    My ego gets sore when some of you slaughter fighters for not being brave enough, getting knocked out, because if these men are weak, cowards, glassed jawed then I'm almost nothing.

    Povetkin did the same to Takam, completely levelled him. I don't even think Ruiz could have taken that vicious uppercut last night. That was perfectly timed.

    Glass jaws EXIST in boxing, denier, and Dillian Whyte clearly has one, as the OP documented.

    Doesn’t have a glass jaw tbh. He does seem to get wobbled easy but I think it’s hard to put him away. Perfect punch last night

    Not glass jawed just very sloppy on his defence, and his feet are very clumsy. He was stood square on with that uppercut. His feet weren’t set right when Rivas uppercut him as well.

    Pretty much perfect punch. No glass jaw involved.

    Tbh not sure it was all that hard a punch....was just a perfectly placed one. Dont think whyte seen it coming.

    These things happen at heavyweight. Dillan shouldnt get too down about it...its happened to better than him over the years.

    I dont think Whytes punch resistance is as good as many of the top guys in division, but its not the worst. Fury might have been able to survive such a shot and possible his cousin, who seems to have a great chin but very few would.

    Fury would have been floored by it but think he'd have got up and scrambled to the end of the round somehow.

    Hughie seems to have an unbelievable chin. Also Dave Allen would eat that uppercut for breakfast.

    No way is Whyte glass jawed but getting ko'd cold like that could affect his punch resistance.

    Tremendous punch from Pov. Pure world class .
