Having glass chin.

It is possible to completely avoid getting hit at all times, provided you have at least minimal physical tools to work with (foot speed, agility, coordination, conditioning). Turtle guard and elbow tucking is impregnable like a 10 year old. Of course, if you don't learn to effectively come out of your shell enough to put anything together without exposing yourself (therein lies the rub), you risk losing nearly every fight against a live body by decision on inactivity. :yep

 

OF COURSE he's talking about Jermain Taylor. As soon as he gets rocked by Hopkins - hardly a hard hitting middleweight - he went straight to fighting light-hitting fighters coming up from the lighter weights.

That smells like a fighter and manager who KNOW their guy has a glass chin. Now that he's been forced to fight a real MW, who hits hard, the Taylor Fraud is about to end, and brutally!!!:yep

 

If I had a glass chin I would do everything in my power not to get hit.

 

Look at Miguel Cotto..His offense is his defense and he has a shaky chin. Its taken him this far. I guess its just a matter of what your gifted at...You don't get the luxury to just pick and choose 2 completely contrasting styles to box with lol..i mean once your pro you wouldn't see Floyd Mayweather fighting like Miguel Cotto or something..Kinda confusing

 

:good

 

Do what Roy Jones did: be so brilliantly quick with your hands, move like a mongoose, strike like a cobra, see everything around you so well that nobody even puts a glove on you 'til you're past your prime.

But retire before then.

 

Defense. It will become a major factor once breaking into the top 10.

 

Lewis coud be hurt but he's not as bad as Wlad Klit.

 

Actually, I'd say the reverse. Wlad has gone down more, and been stopped more often, but he's never been utterly KTFO the way Lewis was against Rahman. It's the quality of the KOs, not the quantity that are most important, all things being equal.
