    Let's examine the last Glass Jaw Prospect Watch thread shall we

    Change of opponent, but Rivera went the distance against a guy who won half his fights by tko. Maybe Sakara hits harder, so you can use that excuse if you want, but you did say Rivera ''has a glass jaw''

    0-1

    Lytle subs Dan after Hardy eats countless hooks to the face

    0-2

    In a stroke of genius, MM correctly predicts that the guy who's been ko'ed by Keith Jardine and Jeremy Horn wont go the distance with Shogun. Genius like this cant be bought, any chance of this weeks lotto numbers MM?

    1-2


    Guess that formula is wrong as the veteran pulls out the win

    So in your last thread you are 1-3

    Cue the excuses, but you suck at Chinchecking

    It's irrefutable

    Sakara would have KOed Rivera. Not because he hits harder but because he actually has some boxing ability and would have been able to land something other than the occasional winging shot. Still, the guy nearly got the job done despite being utter trash on the feet.

    Schaub/Nog was a ridiculous upset. If the fight was made again, I would probably still pick Schaub regardless of how shitty his Chin is because Nogueira is still shot for all intents and purposes and he also possesses a Glass Mandible.

    Lytle/Hardy, yes, I was simply wrong on that one as Lytle was too feather fisted to badly hurt him and Hardy's Chin wasn't as glassy as I once thought. He still got dropped and rocked by a BLOCKED kick, however, so I'm sure he'll redeem my pick for this one in the future.

    Cruz and Shields have glass jaws? Wow, they're really successful mma fighters in spite of this, huh? Looks like you can go far with a glass jaw.

    I think someone needs to PM Zakman for some moral support

    Unless that intent and purpose if kicking Schaub's ass. Good thing Nog's beard can still stand up to Schaub's clean landing cross. I did tell you who was going to win, right?

    I've been giving the kid lessons on this. Maybe they'll sink in.

    What's your fight pick record, hmmm? I seem to remember it being about .500, kiddo. These guys also have plenty of time to prove me right, as well because one fight result isn't enough to prove anything. Hardy, Nogueira, Schaub, AND Rivera all have Glass Jaws regardless of the last result. It's irrefutable.

    I never said you couldn't but you have to be extremely talented which is the case for Cruz, while the case for Shields is careful matchmaking. The two guys that he fought who could wrestle AND crack failed because Hendo gassed and GSP fought like a cowardly disgrace. Ellenberger could very well smash the silica.

    Actually, Scurlar looks more like this.

    How much do you weigh, Scurlar, 260?

    Isn't GSP one of your prospects?

    Well in the 5 events you've picked you have scored 144 and I have scored 134. So that an average of 2 pts an event you are outscoring me. Well done

    And I didnt make a thread saying ''bank on it'' or ''he's British'' did I?

    And let me understand this correctly, if any of the fighters you picked get knocked out any time in the future, it will prove you right. Even though you picked them to get ko'd in these specific fights?

    1-3

    No, GSP is elite and if he does have a Glass Jaw, which I'm not sure of, he hides it well. Circumstantial evidence does lead me to believe that his Chin is suspect, however.

    If they get KOed by less-than-spectacular punches or punchers, then yes, it will. Khan barely escaped getting flatlined by Maidana but that doesn't mean his Mandible is cured. He's still a Glass Jawed Joke and he'll be exposed in a future fight, as well.
