Is there any proof that Wilder has a glass jaw?

    I mean this is getting ridiculous now whenever i see threads making fun of his jaw. He has never ever been dropped in professional boxing. I have seen him taking shots to the face and just blink them off as if they were just flurries. Even David Haye in the sparring video hit him with a flush counter punch with speed (granted he was wearing a helmet) and Wilder remained on steady legs and unflustured.

    If anything i believe AJ has a more suspect jaw given the fact he was dropped numerous times in sparring, in the amateurs and the fact he went down so quickly from Wlad's right hand when so many opponents have taken it.

    Where is the proof Wilder has a glass jaw given that he has only been knocked down in the amateurs once (that also was not like he was put to sleep, he just took a knee) and has never ever been knocked down in his professional career ever?

    He's got a decent jaw. He was dropped by Sconiers, but has taken some decent shots from decent punchers without being hurt.

    Oh, and in before some calls the Nichols slip a kd.

    Joshua has taken shots by much harder punchers..how can he have a more suspect jaw after fighting Wlad who hits harder than wilder? Joshua also ran into the right hand which makes bigger impact on force. do you really think Wlad only connected flush once? come on...lmao

    Wilder has been buckled and DROPPED before by that fat guy??? Hes been hit off balance and stunned with jabs in numerous fights maybe bc he has no base? He doesnt react well to shots thats what i see and not even hard ones.

    i would say he doesnt take a good shot bc he doesnt react well.Joshua maintains focus and composure hes even laughed /smiled at Breazeale shots as well as whyte who connected well and flush on him.Nichols was a knock down i think a slip wouldnt drive you into the ropes like that and his knee hit.?

    Also didnt Washington stun him with a jab? I only saw that fight once.

    Romanov,Nichols,Sconiers,Molina,Firtha,Washington all dropped, mangled or buzzed him badly.

    Wlad destroyed him, and I mean humiliated Wilder in sparring.

    The guy who knocked him out in the amateurs was a former LHW.

    You mention AJ sparring, but Wilder was knocked out in sparring with Wlad and that's not just some random rumour doing the runs like the AJ stuff.

    Wilder also hit the deck by a Dustin Nichols check-jab, he was also down and almost out and saved by the bell vs Sconiers. So your claim that he hasn't been knocked down in the pro ranks is untrue.

    He was also rocked heavily by a Firtha jab and also a Molina right hand.

    The last and one of the most compelling pieces of evidence is that his handlers have completely avoided matching him with any sort of puncher what so ever, a sure sign that they don't have confidence in their fighters chin.

    Exactly , Wladimir hits harder than Wilder , he has that one punch knockout power , i can't understand how
    people can think that Wilder hits harder , only because he is knocking out cab drivers.

    Wladimir has a better punching technique and is heavier , he is definitely the harder puncher.

    Chris Byrd would look like a KO artist if he had faced the lineup of cans that Wilder has.

    Wilder hits hard no doubt,one of my sparring partners from time to time actually fought Wilder early in his career,he tells me all about it...lol

    Everything you said was correct! Wilder gets alot of leverage punching down with that over hand right because he swings it from left field and the guy has speed and is 6'7...Wlad is the better/stronger puncher.

    Wilder is the third strongest puncher in the division at the moment after Wlad and AJ in my opinion.
    I think AJ and Wlad have the same punching power but AJ a better workrate with his power punches.

    Joshua is more heavy handed than Wlad but wlad has a bit more speed and accuracy,he shoots from more straight punches besides the left hook. Joshua's uppercut COULD be stronger if he gets more leverage on it like he did in that vicious uppercut he landed.i believe Joshua could hurt you easier ,from what i see you can make an argument for either guy. Joshua uses more back and torgue in his shots, wlad uses more direct arm power/fast snapping......hard to call.

    The issue with Wilder is he has been rocked in fights by sub par opposition.

    I think once he finally gets in there with a quality player then we will find out once an all if his chin is any good..

    AJ ad Wlad were also mocked for their chins until the last fight (and some still are)..
