    Does he have an iron chin, or can his chin be troubled. Has he been knocked down?

    Solid beard.

    I'll give you a real rating, when he's fought Sergio, and then somebody that's his own size.

    We don't know yet but we are fixing to find out. Glass Jaws exist in Boxing and we WILL talk Chins on ESB. Fact.

    Definitely has an iron chin.

    Doesn't mean it can't be cracked though. Maybe Serge will cut him up, bust an ear drum too.

    Good question. I'm wondering myself if he's ever been knockdown in a fight yet.

    if his Chin is solid which I think it is Martinez does not win this fight, I mean for **** sakes Cintron though he was knocked out and should have been, he fought his way to a draw, Now I know your going to throw out Martinez really knocked him out and you are right that isnt my point.
    My point is what would have happend had Martinez never dropped Cintron would he have a draw or a L? with that being said if he cant hurt Jr he is not winning this fight

    He got buzzed a few times against Zbik and Lee definitely got his attention. His chin looks solid, especially for the style he employs. Anyone can be hurt if they don't see the punches coming.

    It pretty f'in strong

    It's one of his very fews assets

    power, strength and a good chin

    What you think speed and skill got him to where he is?

    lol


    12 round fight in my estimation.

    He was still standing after Rubios shots, and many on here clamored a bout how Rubio was gonna KTFO him

    truthfully his size at the weightclass probably helps and his height definitely prevents him from getting hit as much

    outside Rubio his opponents are hardly KO machines and thats if Rubio is really a KO machine i dont think KO'ing Lemiuex means your a terrific puncher

    Martinez should answer any questions

    thats why i kind dont like the whole chins argument because there are a lot of factors in a knockout not just chin

    the guys who dont get KO'd are the guys who get hit clean the least

    So fighters like LaMotta, Hagler, Chuvalo, etc. saw every punch they got hit with? :huh

    You seriously think that? Iron Chinned Warriors exist. Not seeing the punch is just an excuse.
