Glass Jaws Exist in Boxing!

Listen armchair, I didn't single out any fighter, I even acknowledged certain fighters having a glass jaw. Ridiculing fighters for going down or getting KOd is not being critical, It's not analysing and you have too limited understanding of the game to analyze anything.

Yes, It is indeed disrespect to say that "most fighters have shaky chins", or to imply that "whenever a fighter goes down, It shows glass jaw". It's beyond disrespect, It's simply being an idiot. The fact is many fighters with solid chins have been down, many fighters with good punch resistance have been KOd for one reason or the other.

So I will call you out on your idiocy whenever I see fit, in whichever thread I see fit.

 

I don't need to bring anything, armchair.

"But the reality is that there are very few fighters who have truly solid chins, as demonstrated by the fact that most fighters do hit the canvas at one point or other. A fighter with good punch resistance, generally speaking, does NOT hit the canvas,"

This sentence right here shows how dumb you are and how little you know about boxing. James Toney, who had one of the very best chins in the history of the sport that you know very little about have hit the canvas more than once, in his physical prime at that. His career alone is more than enough to prove that any fighter can hit the canvas and It's simply moronic to claim that there are very few fighters with solid chins.

 

Exceptions my butt. Antonio Margarito had an insane chin, one of the best chins of the millenium, and he's been down and stopped. Tomasz Adamek was another who had one of the best chins of 2000s and he's been down and stopped. Ray Mercer had one of the best chins of his generation, he's been down and stopped. Jean Pascal, Manny Pacquaio, Bernard Hopkins, Mariusz Wach, Denis Lebedev, just off top of my head, all had great chins, all have been down or stopped.

So no, the likelyhood of any fighter being down under the right circumctances is not the exception, It's the rule.

 

Deontay was suffering mild symptons of the coronavirus, that why he was KOed by Fury. He should never have been in that ring that night, with knuckle duster glove gypsy king!

 

Glass jaws clearly exist, and are an important attribute in boxing. This shouldn't even be debated, as it's obviously true.

 

A chin is one of the most important, if not THE most important, attributes in boxing. You can have all the talent in the world, but if you can't take a punch, you're not gonna go very far in boxing.

 

A boxer gets hit in the head, the head turns, overloads the brain and unconscious.
Some believe developing neck muscles prevents the head turn and overload.
However, an over developed neck could lessen head movement which prevents
the head getting hit in the first place. Mike Tyson had a solid neck and kind of bobbed
his whole body throwing everything into every punch. So who knows.

 

Depends from the opponent. Tyson chin that was always good was hardly tested by Holys and Lewis blows.

In nature a tail shot by an orca can break the jaw of a great white shark which is considered by many indestructible.

 

Khan has the worst chin I've EVER seen.

He has a triple whammy of a bad chin, bad defense, and bad recuperative ability.

 

Maybe it not their Jaws that are weak sauce as much as their Stoppages that are the
weak sauce.

 

After almost 20 years of analysis of glass jaws as a professor, how many peer reviewed articles have you written on the subject?
