Nope Over confidence. Chad seem to think that any version of himself good or bad could beat the best Version of Ward. Floyd Sr said it the best .. "I believe Chad is ******ed " why because he makes dumb decision because of his over confidence . Any fighter that has gone through 10 trainer has mental issues.
No being over confident.. Chad thinking any version of himself can beat any version of ward , 40% KO ratio included, well he was proven wrong. He should have respected Ward boxing ability and asked for a catch weight but instead he shot his mouth off, stating he could go down to 168 (dumb) Chad thinking that any version of himself what he believes is a limited Adonis again he was proven wrong .. Adonis has 20 wins 12 ko in first and second round , and what does Chad do ? He press the action against one of the most explosive guys at 168 and now 175 with a 81% ko ratio.. Adonis should have only had a puncher chance, which means all chad had to do was respect his power and box, instead he tries to out slug, the slugger (Pretty ****ing DUMB!!!) Imagine chad dawson 40% ko ratio trying to out slug a fighter with a 81% Ko ratio atsch Dawson is not glassed jawed just dumb
Look, if it shatters like glass, chances are - maybe, just maybe - it IS glass!!!! Dawson has been knocked down and KOd by Ward, a featherfisted fighter. And that was hardly the first time he'd hit the mat either! Now, he's been starched in one by Stevenson and some of you STILL can't put two and two together and recognize, hey this guy just doesn't have the greatest set of whiskers! atsch
let put something in perspective here .. In the past 25 years there have been two monsters punchers that stood above everyone else at Jr middle to super middle and that Julian jackson at 80% and Gerald McClen at 87% anyone that got cracked by these guys were not considered glass jawed, just victims gifted punchers . that brings us to Stephenson who's KO ratio is 81% , one percent above julian jackson and 6 percent below Gerald. It would be stupid to think that all three of these fighters opponents where bums with Glass Jaws . No one is going to have the greatest set of whisker getting hit by someone with power of that magnitude .. Doubt even the great marvin hagler would try and take that hit head on , like the one that tore Dawson from his senesces .. And really he quit against ward.
It is hard to imagine guys like Hagler or LaMotta, even Carl Froch, getting floored by the shot that took out Dawson. You seem to forget his shaky whiskers had already been exposed by the light-hitting Ward of all people! And he'd tasted canvas before that against Adamek. Dawson had already been shown to have a fragile mandible BEFORE Stevenson starched him, and removed all doubts about his lack of punch resistance!
Hagler would be smart enough not to get caught with a shot like that , Froch on the other hands eat many shots and it would be in his best interest to stay way from Stephenson. Lets ask this question, when has Froch faced someone as explosive as Adonis with that kind of power ? Hopefully Froch would have enough brain matter in his scull not to charge a fighter as powerful as Adonis head on. Hey didn't froch get his ears boxed off by a feather fisted Ward ? anyway that another story. let be real Adonis is a big 168 pounder and LaMotta is a bleeder, even a legend like LaMotta would not be able to Take too many of those shots that dropped dawson flush. again Dawson issue is not his chin its his way of thinking, this fight was his to win adonis only real chance was puncher chance at best, and Dawson gave him that chance. game over !
The ignorance here.. :-(. Keep denying the existence of glass jaws, while glass Jawson gets sparked out again
Everybody can get knocked out, but not all fighters take a punch the same. Look at the bombs that Guillermo Jones took from Lebedev, now compare that to Alekseev who got knocked down three times by one punch of Lebedev.
*** , stop trolling about pro boxers ! A 15 years old Dawson would beat the **** out of you , ***git ! just STFU u little piece of feces .. :deal
Let's add Froch TKO 5 Lucy Pute. That was also a hilarious display of glass jaw getting shattered all over the arena in Nottingham . Lucian Bute has a glass jaw= fact.
