    Take a look at some of the posts in the thread, friend. Boxing fans are a JOKE today. Many simply refuse to recognize the CENTRAL importance of punch resistance in this sport, and they scoff at those who do!

    How many shaky-chinned fighters have to get knocked out before they wake up???:huh:patsch

    But you only brag when you are right.

    You are very often wrong just like your LOVE for Peter until McCline checked his fat ass chin you then turned your back on him.

    You and Amstydam need to go your seperate ways and get into different realiontships with LADIES.

    Of course chins matter. But you act like it is the be all and end all. You act like it decides every fight and that someone without an iron chin is doomed.
    Moreover you point to any KO loss as being evidence for a glass jaw.

    Lets see....

    Lewis beat Tua. How is that possible in your world?
    RJJ beat Toney. How?

    I guess Hearns had no chance against Duran....

    And so on.....

    Amsterdam and I parted company on the Cotto fight - he picked Cotto. I tried to warn him. Usually his instincts are good, but he underestimated just HOW shaky Cotto's chin was.

    I did not.

    I think they do recognise it, however not to the same extent. It's one of many factors. You'll often post a prediction, only backed up by chin reasoning. I'm sure you have have other reasons, but a lot of the time you don't post them which gives people the impression you only think about that.

    And then you'll spin it post-fight, and if a guy hadn't seen the fight you'd think Cotto got starched or something.

    You always predict the same thing and more often than not you are WRONG just like you are WRONG right now.

    His chin did NOT fail him he took a ****ing beating.

    No variable is a PERFECT predictor of fight outcomes. But FAR more often than not the fighter that can take the better punch will win. Just like last night!!!

    And yes, when fighters hit the canvas, this shows that they don't take the greatest shot. What do you think it proves, that they're George Chuvalo??? :rofl

    Yep that just about sums up this ******ed thread perfectly.

    Fancy trying to take credit for predicting that one day Audley Harrison would get KO'd :rofl :rofl :rofl

    I dread to think what it'd have been like when Ali was around if we had internet....after going down to little Cooper Zakman would have been predicting him to get KO'd in every fight thereafter. He'd have looked almost as big a ****** back then as he does now too. Almost.

    The only reason Cotto didn't get starched is that his uncle saved him from it.

    Why did his uncle save him?

    I'll answer for you. He'd already taken enough of a beating. Yet he hadn't been starched, with such a bad chin. It doesn't add up.

    Sorry Zak but I agree....

    I mean come on, you picked Ding to knock out the man who has the best chin in the cruiser weight division, Firat Arslan.

    That guy eats Dings punches for breakfast....

    Im dunno tho you might have guessed on that prediction or somthing without researching cause you couldn't possibly be serious that Ding would knock out Arslan in your words "out cold" lol...

    You are an idiot. Far more often than not? You get your predictions wrong 90% of the time.
    Guys like Hearns had amazing careers with shaky chins, and no being dropped does not make someone glass jawed. If it is a big puncher and they land flush or they take a large number of shots...

    Anyone will go down. Ali was dropped by several fighters from single shots, what are you going to tell me that Ali could not take a punch now?

    Not every chin is equally bad as the next, there are different levels. Cotto's is merely shaky, as opposed to say, Fraudley's, which is Grade A China. There are a lot of factors that go into chin analysis, such as whether a fighter gets knocked out by light-hitters or guys that are lighter than them, etc. These are usually indicators of less-than-stellar punch resistance.

    If guys are hitting the canvas against lesser fighters early in their career, it usually means that they will get knocked out when they move up. My point is that you need to watch for these signs, for it helps in the predicting fight outcomes!

    Yeah, that was a real bad one I remember. Infact, a lot of people made an awful pick there, they really can't have seen Arslan.
