24 years ago today Hasim Rahman shatters Lennox Lewis glass chin

Well, Lewis was unmotivated at times but still only lost 2x and came back both times to get revenge. He is 1 of the very few heavyweights that beat every fighter he faced. If anyone could beat everyone it’s Lewis.

 

No, Lennox didn't have a glass chin. His chin was far from great, but definitely not glass.

Wlad, BTW, didn't have a glass chin either.

If you want to find really glass chins among HW world champions, watch Oleg Maskaev and Herbie Hide. Compared to them Lewis and Wlad had unbreakable chins

 

Don't agree.

Holmes got up too quickly and fell into the ropes but he was walking fine after that.

Lewis also got up too quickly but couldn't stand up in a straight line he wobbled side to side atleast 3 times and that was atleast 10 seconds after getting knocked down.

Could Lewis of recovered ? Who knows. But if you're staggering from left to right and can't walk in a straight line then you're not really giving the referee much choice.

 

So it was a 1 in 2 chance or 1 in a million?

Math sure is tricky.

 

I don't think Lewis had a glass jaw. Though it definitely wasn't iron. The Rahman loss was because he was overconfident and unprepared. That IMO was Lewis's biggest weakness ... Overconfidencee. He showed in the rematch what he could have done the first time round - and imagine if he had? Would the glass jaw accusation still stand?

 

Well thank the God's Usyk has a decent chin, because his defense sucks compared to the best and gets hit extremley often. That's against bums like chisora, bellew, breidis, Joshua and obese Fury

Imagine he had real competition for his very few ranked wins?

 

Only after removing his member from ur mouth

 

Other fights don't support the idea that Lennox had a glads jaw. Certainly wasn't iron, but not glads.
