    He ate an elbow, he has taken kicks to his jaw, never blinked bla bla bla. His chin looked suspect vs Fury and it showed.

    Not since the Germans rolled into Paris has the world seen such a lackluster defense

    Wallin is a professional boxer and knows how to move with the punches.
    Ngannou hadn't a clue how to defend himself in there and took those shots full on.

    Means nothing as I have said since before. AJ can KO anyone. Anyone can be KO'd.

    He's got a solid jaw for MMA, but glass for boxing.

    Not about the chin at all. No one can take clean punches like that from AJ. No one.

    NGannou far too open and too susceptible to feints.

    Not glass jaw. Paper bag defence.

    What Human being on earth could take a straight punch to the jaw from AJ like that and stay standing?

    Getting knocked out by a hard hitting veteran boxer like Joshua doesn't mean you have a glass chin. By definition, a hard hitter is supposed to be able to KO most chins.

    Ngannou took big shots from Fury, the same ones that felled Wilder, like they were nothing. Being knocked out by a guy like AJ, a monstrous puncher, does not mean he has a glass jaw. Quite the opposite, I think his durability is pretty solid.

    Exactly.

    AJ is just that strong of a puncher. Looking back it's crazy he tried to become a "slick" fighter after the Ruiz 1, his power is incredible.

    Francis can't be KO'd because he takes punches and doesn't flinch

    Especially when they're eating flush right hands against someone like AJ. AJ took care of business as a top level boxer should against a novice.
