    A Chin is THE single most important attribute a fighter can have. Ask Amir Khan, David Price, Roy Jones, or Seth Mitchell if having a Chin matters. They will tell you.

    Yeah, no ****. There can be be NO question that glass jaws exist in boxing and that having a sturdy mandible must have one. It doesn't guarantee success in the sport, but the lack of one almost surely guarantees failure.

    Only delusional glass jaw deniers and blind fanboys of glass jawed fighters deny the existence of glass jaws.:deal

    If you go to the UK, you will feel your chin getting weaker justby the moment you ente the country. So yeah, glass jaws exist, just imagine that some people live there for their whole life.

    :think its all that rain they get on those little islands, cold swampy mist, drizzle,
    fog, wind blown rain, and damp mold soaks into their jaws and makes them
    very very brittle like Peanut Brittle!! :yep

    The longer you live there the Brittleness Increases...

    I think Wilder, Wlad, Stiverne, and Povetkin would all KO Fury.

    It's true, glass jaws do indeed exist - just check out this photo taken when Mr Garcia shattered the mandible of Mr Khan:

    I feel that the opponents of the fighter with a glass jaw should be more protected in the ring. If you look at the photo, you can clearly see that poor Mr Garcia is in serious danger of fragmented glass entering his eyes...

    his Mayweather Lottery Ticket Sweepstakes!!!!!! :lol:

    Fury is light-years better than anybody Wilder has faced. Besides, Wilder has a rather fragile mandible himself. :yep

    No. Poor defense and posture exists and lacking the desire to get up from a punch exists etc... But the idea of some guys having "fragile chins" on some physiological level is just silly.

    Khan's defense is poor and he walks into bombs.
