    I find this very amusing?

    I know the guy is a bit of a loud mouth and talks too much but am a bit surprised by claims he has a bad chin?

    The only time i have seen him go down is in the Thompson fight but lets face it, he had punched himself out and was so badly out of Gas that it was more a case of Fatigue putting him on the canvas rather than anything else.

    In all his other fights, i have seen him take plenty of big shots to the face but have never seen him go down let alone be staggered. So how can people claim he has a bad chin?

    Lolenga Mock and Jean-Marc Mormeck both dropped Haye at Cruiser.

    Mock dropped Haye in the second round, and Mormeck dropped Haye in the fourth round. Haye subsequently won both fights, so any suggestions of Haye only being dropped because of having stamina issues or having punched himself out in those fights are purely moot.

    One of the signs of a good chin is the ability to quickly recover, get back up and even win the fight. This is what the likes of Ali, Holmes were well renowned for. Anyone can get dropped in this sport.

    Who says Wilder has a bad chin?

    Every heavy weight fight, i see him get him on the face at one time or the other but he manages to keep still.

    Haye has an average chin at the least. Never one punch KO'd in his life. Dropped yes but so what? He was only stopped once. Wladimir landed a few decent shots and Haye took them. A guy with a glass chin would have been stopped by Mormeck,Wladimir,Chisora,Enzo Mac etc etc

    Exactly right! Wilder was dropped early in his career like many fighters. In his recent fights he wasn't dropped at all and he faced a few guys who could punch a bit.

    To say he has a glass jaw is BS. There is no evidence to support that claim. We even saw him stay upright when taking a flush David Haye counter punch right on the chin in that famous sparring video.

    I would back Haye to get him out of there but not by just one shot but through an accumulation of shots.

    Hard to tell much from the sparring video, he was wearing protective head gear which would neutralize any head shots.

    Lenni will have to lose the chin battle here, he was starched twice by single shots which cost him the fight, both legitimate stoppages. Haye atleast got up and won the fights he was stopped in.

    Heck Tyson Fury got up like a man after being hit by that shot from Cunningham and won the fight like a boss something that Lenni cant lay a claim too.
