Chin Talk Special - Ask a ChinChecker a question about Glass Jaws, Iron Chins etc.

I have a question

How does Roy Jones take a clean right hand from Ruiz. But gets ko by Johnson who is not a big puncher?

Was it the weight loss?

 

People actually askin these ***gots questions

 

Depends on the situation.. Give me an example of a fighter who got stopped, and i will tell you if he has a glass jaw.

 

We discuss chins here on ESB, we chincheckers form our opinions from irrefutable evidence :deal.. You don't like it, GTFO

 

Is there such a thing as the perfect punch?

Gene Fullmer - Ray Robinson II as an example.

 

Perfect punch? Hmm, i think Rocky Marciano's suzie Q may come close.. But it isn't impossible to take such a punch..

 

Is there anything a fighter can do to boost punch resistance

 

How would the chincheckers rate marquez chin? I was thinking the other day is it a case of iron chin, or glass mandible with brilliant recuperative skills.

 

That is as close to a perfect punch as is possible, but there are fighters, LaMotta for instance, who took nearly identical punches and survived. Fullmer had a great Chin as evidenced by that being the only shot that ever ended him, but it isn't impossible to survive such a shot.

 

This.

 

Not A perfect punch, but THE perfect punch, as in.. it'll render your considered iron chinned warrior unconscious or make his legs go jelly.

Think:

Walcott - Charles (I know Charles was not considered Iron chinned)
Robinson - Fullmer II
Duran - Hearns
Holyfield - Bowe


And so many more.

 

How would you rate the following fighters chins:

Ike Williams
Carmen Basilio
Gene Tunney
Jake LaMotta
Gene Fullmer
Tony DeMarco
Chuck Davey

 

Bute was sure fire glass jawed disgrace. it was evident way before the froch fight

he has a very long neck so punches he takes cause large movement in his cranium sloshing the brain towards the skull surface and leading to a violent KO.

he also has very weedy legs. a good fighter needs stong legs for balance and support

.I feel bute will need to rewrite his entire body structure as well as mental psyche. In addition to his physical dhortcomins, he is disheartened very easily and fold under pressure.

he need to build a strong lower body beef up that neck and traps. in addition he need to grow a thick beard
