These are my top ten picks for fighters who are SURE to get starched in 2009. Repeat offenders are included. 10. Nathan Cleverly - Going to get KO'd as soon as he steps up. 9. Lucian Bute - KO'd by Andrade, will get KO'd again if there's a rematch. 8. Vic Darchiniyan - If he doesnt get KTFO against Arce he will in the Donaire rematch. 7 Chris Arreloa - Knocked down by Travis Walker (Who also has a glass jaw). Will get KO'd by any of the good heavyweights and by good I mean Wlad/Vitali/Haye. 6. Edison Miranda - A glass jawed joke who will get KO'd once again if he fights anyone decent. The only way he doesnt is he he keeps on fighting opposition like he's got next. 5. Anthony Mundine - Been on the canvas 4 times in the last 5. Been dropped about 3 times more against bums. Who can forget the 10-minute sleeping session against pillow-fisted Sven Ottke ? This man WILL BE KO'd as soon as he fight someone decent and not Shannon Taylor or Sam Solimon 4. Joint 3rd - Wladimir Klitschko vs David Haye - Whoever lands the first big shot gets that glass shattered. (I feel that Haye is going to win BTW) 2. Amir Khan - Possibly the worst chin in boxing right now. With a rumoured fight against Alex Arthur comming up, all he has to do is land a jab and its LIGHTS OUT for Khan. AND MY TOP PICK FOR GLASS JAWS IN 2009 is... 1. Yuriorkis Gamoba - Gets put on his ass nearly every fight against taxi drivers and schoolteachers. No defence, no chin. A carbon copy of Amir Khan. A BRUTAL KO WAITING TO HAPPEN. Prescott vs Gamboa anyone ? Thoughts ?
You seriously make another glass jaw thread? Damn I though that other buffoon had this topic covered.
I disagree with your pick in Wlad-Haye, but other than that, you've picked some good china chins there. Too bad Khan and Gamboa are not in the same division. Now that's a match I'd love to see. Personally, I think Gamboa wins, btw. Khan's chin is the worst I've seen in years. There aren't too many fighter that get put on ***** street by JABS!!
Far be it from me to defend Khan as I think he's a glass jawed joke but I remember Nigel Benn getting KO'd by a jab from Michael Watson, and he wasn't exactly glass jawed.
Gamboa doesn't seem to get hurt too much, so I don't think he has a glass jaw. He's just really reckless, but I think his chin is still unproven. Stick him in with a guy he respects and his chin will seem much better.
Bute doesnt have a glass jaw...he was completely exhausted and went down from the accumulation of punches he was taking from the beginning of the round...he will definitely beat Andrade AGAIN in a rematch...
Since when does getting knocked down mean someone has a glassjaw? With this thinking Calzaghe shouldn't be 46-0 he's been down five times in his career. Maybe those five times he's been down should just count as loses. 41-5 isn't nearly as impressive.
i dont see darchinyan getting KTFO by arce let alone nonito x2. vic came into the fight against nonito over confident with pressure to "perform" not only for the viewers of Showtime but his father was also in attendance for the 1st time ever. -not to make up excuses for the man but he just fought so goddamn reckless.. many say that nonitos win was a fluke in which i disagree. but theres no doubt that vic will come in & fight more cautious.
