This thread is for general Chin Talk. Questions or comments can be made regarding your favorite fighters Chins. Several Glass Jawed fighters have fights coming up also so we need to discuss Punch Resistance and the role it will play. Thoughts? :think
You should rename it to "British Talk" .. Anyway. Haye vs. Fury, battle of the glass chins Wilder on Friday, the definition of pure glass Intresting fights.
I have a question about Angulo's chin. He was KTFO against Kirkland and quit against Lara. How would you rate his chin?
Liakovich is not likely to be the guy......but IF the ref allows him to fight thru the KDs....he COULD b the one to shatter Wilders fragile china chin.
In the Kirkland fight lets not forget he put Glass Jawed Kirkland down and then proceeded to punch himself out hitting nothing but gloves and air. If he was patient and picked his shots better Jelly Jaw Kirkland would have been out of there. I think that KO had more to do with being tired than anything that fight easily could have had a different result. As far as the Lara fight his eye was grotesque and although it was a quit job the referee should have stepped in first. Angulo isn't a bad fighter but he isn't very good either. HBO tried to force him down our throats early on in his career. Have to give Kirkland credit for getting up and beating him.
Wilder I am interested in watching on Fri. If this was even the version of Sergei from the Briggs fight Wilder would be getting knocked out. It is pretty pathetic when a totally shot and shop worn guy like Sergei is a 'step up'. He has a lot of miles on him. Wonder if Tommy Brooks is still training him? :think
ChinMaster, Explain how Chad Dawson has a bad chin. Stopped only in 2 fights. He took a monstrous beating while at 50 % against Ward for 10 rounds, then a hellacious shot against a known bomber in Stevenson and got up at 6. I thank you for your time and vaunted chin experience.
I'm pretty sure this thread is made twice a month every month... Nothing new to discuss... Wait till the end of the year maybe...
Actually it isn't and this is ESB we talk Chins on here. It is what makes this forum the premier Boxing Forum on the internet.
Floyd Mayweather Sr told us Dawson had a Glass Jaw years ago. Said he was continually getting knocked down and out in sparring and that he doesn't train Glass Jawed fighters and it is why he dropped him.
lets keep the chin talk alive. :think Chin elite: Will it eventually be proven that Lucas has the same chin as his brother Walter since they have the same chin DNA?
