    some fighters with iron chin can go years and years without getting dropped so they didn't have the need to focus on defence but those who know they have a glass chin make up for it by having a a great defence which is better ?

    You're not going anywhere with a glass chin without a D.

    Or maybe some people dont want to end up brain dead when they hang them up (rightfully so)

    Boxing is art of hitting and not being hit.

    Or if your getting sparked out, maybe your defence needs sorting

    If Amir Khan had any sort of defensive skills, we wouldnt be sitting here discussing his chin

    He has been knoccked down by ****ing Zab Judah.
    Zab Judah!
    Zab couldn't hurt Khan, but knoccked down glass floyd.
    Mosley and Cotto both rocked Void.

    That's a pure glass china he's hiding.

    He wouldn't be so scared of letting his hands go if he wouldn't find the opponent's punches hurtful. :smoke

    And put to bed by a 39 year old Marquez, the same Marquez that landed nothing and was shut out by Mr.Mayweather

    Floyd has never been truly knocked down in his career.
