    People will disagree with me on this but pretty much everyone decent puncher(except Mosley) has hurt Cotto.

    coo.ney

    took holmes 13 rounds
    the best fighter at the time and undefeated champion

    spinks , another undefeated heavyweight (even if blown up)
    faster and stung him to death until it was stopped

    foreman, highest KO rate of any heavyweight champion EVER

    so to lose by KO to a combined 133 wins 2 defeats (110 KOs)
    doesnt constitute a glass jaw

    putting him in the same category as bruce seldon is a joke

    was he a great fighter ? NO
    but his jaw wasnt glass

    Stunned is different of being Hurt He was stunned by a hard uppercut by Judah and by Floyd He was Hurt by Corley and Torres but to His credit He was drained.

    Yeah but obviously a fighter with a bad chin would get stunned more often than other fighters.

    Heavyweights? Hmm...

    Oleg Maskaev's Chin was in the "pure Glass" category. As a result, he was destroyed in spectacular fashion multiple times and not always by good opposition.

    Rahman's chin was one of the worst in the HW division in the 35 years I've been following boxing. Pure china.:deal

    Yup, KO'd out of the ring! :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Rahman's Glass Jaw only isn't talked about as much lately because of how bad Fraudley and then Price were.

    He came very, very close to going out of the ring in the second fight as well.
