    He doesn't have a glass jaw, but he is a glass cannon and he isn't defensibly responsible most of the time.

    That is how you create a preferable environment for a KO, the opponent sees an opening that he can't pass & it drives him to take a risk he doesn't usually take.

    Kudra distinguished himself as an exciting fighter, he should just work on become more of on his offensive arsenal to make the fights more exciting

    No doubt. Fighters with a big punch and a fragile jaw are the most entertaining in the sport. I look forward to more Kud fights, as KO is guaranteed in each.

    The Khan -esque remark is way too harsh. He stood toe to toe with Duradola in two fights and ate some bombs. His chin may not be the greatest, but it's clearly farther from one of the glassiest either - when your defense is lacking as much as he is you're only going to get away with it against savage punchers if you've got a caste iron chin.

    Okay, so maybe "Khan level" is overstating, but this guy doesn't seem to have a particularly solid chin, and based on this performance, deserves to be ranked in the upper reaches of the top ten at this point in time.

    I expect, by the way, that we will see Kud hitting the canvas with some regularity should be continue his career, which will bolster the evidence regarding his mandibular fragility.

    Wilder - Kudryashov would be epic, two mandibularly challenged power punchers. During the first 30 seconds of the round 1 both could easily be booking a one-way ticket to the ***** street.

    Khan is in a league of his own when it comes to brittle chins

    Kudra could be the boxer who can make Cruiser an entertaining division, 4 big fights a year will do it

    He might well be the slowest boxer I've ever seen.

    He is heavy handed but slow, he stabilizes his victims with some body punches (any punch by Kudra landing anywhere will slow down the body). Dotricos tastes some power in round 1, thats why he came out in Round 2 like it was the last round, anymore of those body punches & Dorticos will be the one catching punches.

    Kudra power is the same class as:
    George Foreman, Yory Boy Campas, Rocky Marciano...
    If you don't have long range straight hands to stop the guys above, they will walk thru you & bulldoze you...regardless of your speed advantage

    Kudryashov - Chakhkiev would have been fire. Too bad Chak retired!
