Ok the term Glassjaw gets passed around so often here that it gets confusing. Because some guys out there have worst than glass jaws, china chins -- their jaws are below the glass and plate level. So something must be done about this as fast as possible... So.... ...how about a completely NEW classification of a new type of jaw? I propose Grade Eggshell. ..Wait wait wait... Before you say anything, just think about it for a second... and let me explain the finer points of this class of Jaw... The material of a eggshell is so delicate that even a baby can crack it open, hell you can flick it with your finger and it will crack open. Also a Egg (I am referring to your common chicken eggs from any supermarket) has a shape where it looks awfully similar to someones head, even has what looks to be a jaw which would be the most vulnerable part. For instance, if you get rocked by a jab (insert Amir Khan), you have a Grade Eggshell Jaw. This is new and sudden... I know... so just think it over some. Watch a few taps of the finest caliber glassjaws you can find and make your judgments afterwards. I also think Micheal Bennett when he fought was the classic example of Grade Eggshell jaws. But since most probably don't remember him, which is an result of how bad his jaw was, Amir Khan's is P4P A-NUMBER-1 DUKE of Grade Eggshell standard jaws.
Can you please post some pictures of these chicken eggs from your home planet that are shaped like human heads and have....jaws????
pts. for your imagination, but the classification "amir khan" has already been patented for the worst of the worst.
Its either this way or that way there usually isn't an in between. You either have a iron chin or a glass jaw... I personally like a metal that bends such as copper. That is the kind of chin i classify Joe calzaghe in ...copper chin.
A new category for worst chin should be reserved for someone sparked by a Malignaggi or Calzaghe, not someone wobbled by a Jab and KO'd at the second attempt by a hard puncher. Nigel Benn got sparked by a jab and went on to take 10 rounds from Gerald McClellan. Not bad. Khan's chin is Glass, no need for a new category just yet.(I'll wait till he gets stopped by a feather fisted Boxer)
lol ok ok ok! They are not completely shaped like a human head.. but... This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected
In these modern times, everything is possible, even eggs with jaws. Since there are really many types of jaws in boxing, a bigger classification than iron chin and glass jaw wouldnt be that bad. There are boxers who get knocked down, but regenerate quick, others go down more because of balance, others can be punished for very long, but once they are cracked, they are never the same. There seem to be fine differences.
New classification of fighter who's technically sound, loves to brawl and can bang = The Kufi Smacker.
