What is more of an impediment to an ATG boxing career? A glass jaw, typified by boxers like Andrew Golota, Albert Sosnowski and Aleksy Kuziemski? Or a glass mind, envinced by the likes of Andre Dirrell, Devon Alexander and Zab Judah? N.B. Golota and Judah could have easily fitted into both categories.
Glass mind??? You mean glass heart! Use the proper terminology. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4_T0TzCylo[/ame]
I watched Golota take Bowes HUGEST shots and almost never buckle. The one punch Kos exist in boxing because they are perfectly landed, and will wobble, KD, or KO even the Iron chins. Golota does have a glass heart though as seen vs Grant, Tyson, and Admake. Sos has a solid grill, not Iron, but DEF not glass. Wlad prbably has the worst balance of any ATG, and his prblems are deer in the headlights looks when he's off balance, which leads to perfectly placed bombs landing at will on his chin.......OF COURSE.......HE NEVER was KOd, HE ALWAYS gets up.
Glass minds exist in boxing. Dirrell had his fight against Froch there for the taking, but his glass mind could not cope with the pressure. Judah was being outclassed by Mayweather, so he threw a low-blow and then a rabbit punch. Alexander... Actually, **** it, who am I kidding? I meant glass heart. Don't want to get into the whole "what does the word 'Floored' mean to you?" territory.
There is NOTHING more significant in determining the outcome of a boxing match than a glass jaw. If you have one, odds are, particularly at the top level, you're gonna lose. BTW, Golota had more of a glass mind than a glass jaw. Although his chin wasn't exactly granite either!
Dirrell has a "glass mind" huh? i guess embarrassing one of your fave fighters and getting KO'd by a cheap shot from the seat of your pants qualifies.. your an idiot.
It's 'you're.' Little tip... when insulting the intelligence of a forum poster, make sure your* grammar and spelling is flawless. Otherwise, the resulting fail could prove embarassing. *Notice the use of 'your' in the proper context.
Zak, I really thought you would be the last person in need of educating on a glass jaw. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0em16mPPvR0[/ame]
