HORSE Necks Exist In Boxing, Thick short NECKS= Iron CHIN, CANELO, TYSON, Toney ETC.

Haha damn I got you mad

 

this always make me wonder. How will his chin hold up against a real puncher.:think

 

Bute is a good example of this

He has the long slim neck of a horse & simply cannot take a good shot

 

Having a big head also helps

I don't think I've seen a small headed guy with an iron chin. Pencil head Khan is getting KO'd left and right

 

Steroids also exist and all of them failed drug test except the white boy

 

:yep come on guys, Canelo vs Cotto took place when he was still a teenager. I'm sure his chin is better now

 

Plus it was at 147, one has to think Ginger was starving himself to get there. Couldn't have helped his punch resistance.

I'm interested in seeing him tested again though.

As for Trout, you might be concerned for him. He doesn't have a huge head or a huge neck. He might have some problems when he gets hit.

 

head size, neck strength, and anatomical characteristics of a fighters chin will contribute to create legendary punch resistance when you get the right characteristics there. In regards to the chin type, long chins are disastrous for the whiplash force taken to the head because it increases torque production about the axis of the head/neck joint. A perfect example of this is Gamboa, who has a strong ass neck, has a decent sized head, but his chin is extremely long. Torque = Force x Moment Arm (distance of tip of chin, to the axis of the neck/head joint)... When Gamboa gets hit by any given force, it gets multiplied against a large moment arm value, which creates very large Torque forces about his head, and this ultimately contibutes to all of his flash knockdowns and moments of damaged equilibrium.

You can take some of the best chins ever, Hagler, James Toney, Mayorga etc, they had strong necks, with wide/stubby/short in length chin anatomy. When fighters hit these guys, they only had to tuck their chin and it would significantly reduce the moment arm value, which would decrease the value of torque about their head, so the torque generation would be small - torque is the force that knocks fighters the heck out.

On the flip side, another example of a fighter that gets hurt a lot, is Khan. His chin type, head size, and neck strength, are all bad for boxing. Long chin, thin head, and not a very strong neck. The torque generation that he gets from punches is immense, and his brain (and no brain for that matter) could handle it. Had Danny Garcia's left hook had been landed on the tip of Khan's chin, Khan would have been taken straight to the hospital on a stretcher.

Sorry to go all biomechanical on you ESB, but I need to take the chin checkers to school.
