Juan Urango's Chin

:huh How do you figure that when Hatton never came remotely close to hurting Urango? Hatton was on the only one hurt in that fight. Ricky was visibly affected by a series of body punches in the fifth round, and after that began to clinch with more and more frequency.

 

that straight right he took from Bailey would've ended careers. And he had that big ol ball under his eye to prove it. Dude is as tough as nails and he hits just as hard. Only problem is he simply isn't a skilled fighter. He doesn't have many punches in his arsenal, he just swing wild hooks at the body and head....hey its been workin alright for him.

 

exactly the only guy I think has really hurt him is Randall Bailey. And Bailey's straight right hits like a dumptruck. I mean class fighters, like Berto and Hatton, can win pretty easily over him, but you aren't going to stop him.

 

urango and paulie have the best chins at 140 IMO

 

It's good, but he ain't the great iron chinned brute everyone makes him out to be. He can be hurt like everyone else.

 

You know I thought that same thing. Urango's head was snapping around a lot more in the later rounds of that fight than it the opening rounds. It looked to me like fatigue was setting in with Urango as well and if Ricky just had the gas those clean hooks he was landing on Juan would've knocked him out eventually. Lucky for Urango, Hatton was running on empty by the end of that fight and decided to hold more than punch.
