His chin is GRADE A china, and Wlad is gonna shatter that glass, just like Tua, Lewis, Maskaev (twice) have. Wlad's been knocked down, but he's always gotten up. When Rahman gets knocked out, he gets knocked out cold. That's a glass jaw, folks!!:yep
Yeah, just like it's gonna be funny to see glass-jawed Rahman do a Judah chicken dance before he falls out of the ring again!
i don't know where this glass jaw myth comes from... he wasn't knocked down against tua in 23 rounds, at the time of the stoppage he was avoiding punches and moving. he was on the way to his feet after one of the best 1-2's in hw history against lewis. he survived hard punches and slugged it out against sanders, which is impossible if you have a glass jaw. he had an embarrassing ko loss against maskaev in 99, but when a big puncher catches you with the perfect shot it can be over. it's not like his jaw is as weak as maskaev's, who dropped like he was shot after whitaker's arm punch. face it, his chin is average, he can be knocked out but you need a hell of a punch to do it. that said, wlad is the man to knock him out again, but he shouldn't trade punches with him...
Rahman's chin isn't just weaker than Maskaev's, it's PROVEN weaker. Who knocked who the f*ck out?? Rahman specializes in getting knocked unconscious - a talent he will display yet again when he faces Wlad. At least we are in agreement on that.
Oleg got KTFO by T Rex Sanders and Wlad has been on his ass about a dozen times all 3 have Glass Jaws and can be KTFO.
I don't agree. Klitchko always gets up because he falls down after barely being hit. Rahman stays on his feet and gets bombed out of there. Watch the Maskaev fights again. He never got koed with one punch he took several hard right hands before going down. In the first fight he took some heavy punishment before going through the ropes. More than I have ever seen Klitchko take. In the second how many shots did he take before getting koed. At least 10 hard shots. About 9 more that it would take for Wald to hit the deck. Take a close look at how easy Klitchko goes down and tell again how solid his chin is. Rahman is way more durable than Wald. Just watch what happens if Rahman is lucky enough to land something solid against the frail Klitchko.
If Wlad were as frail as you suggest he wouldn't be a long-term champion who has defeated multiple top ten opponents for years now. Does he have a Chuvalo chin. No but he got tagged and knocked down by very heavy hitters. He gets hit by average punchers like Byrd, Thompson, Calvin Brock, Monte Barrett, Mcline, etc. and he shows no effect. He has an average chin for a heavy and he will make Rahman look "frail" in six weeks and you and your ilk will give him no credit.
:rofl :rofl :rofl This by far is The WORSE ERA of HW boxing in history, guys like Ibragimov, Austin and Thompson would be top 50 fighters in any decent era.
Let's see who gets KOd in this fight. I'd bet the farm that Rahman's glass jaw gets shattered yet again. Wlad has never been KTFO, he's always gotten to his feet. You have no way of knowing how hard the shots were that put him down vs. the shots that took out Rahman - all you can do is speculate. What we do know is that when Rahman hits the deck, he usually doesn't get up, and sometimes he literally falls right outa the ring. That's a GRADE A china chin.:yep
With that logic Lennox Lewis has a stronger chin than Tyson. You cannot evaluate chin based on who knocked who out. There are way more variables than that.
that fight against maskaev was the only time he got knocked unconscious. you just keep ignoring my examples: he took wicked shots from tua and sanders and kept fighting back. wlad, though i'm a huge fan, couldn't have taken those shots. of course he will ko rahman, but not because he has the better chin, it's because he won't let rahman land his best punch on him while he himself will connect sooner or later.
Preach it Zak. I do not understand why people try to defend Rahman and his Glass Jaw. The guy has been not only knocked out cold but also out of the ring. Rahman specializes in the highlight reel KO. Rahman has a top 5 Glass Jaw in Boxing and nothing anyone says will change that.
Check the last knockdown against Sam Peter. The punch that knocked Wald down hardly made contact. TOS had him on his ass with one shot. One punch from Sanders had Wald hurt and out of the fight. See Rahman vs Sanders and observe the punishment Rahman took before comming back for a huge win. Klitchko has not been in the ring with Lewis, Tua or Maskaev but he has been in with a few decient punchers even though his managemant has done their best to keep him away from anyone with punching power. Would Wald have survived Lewis? Not likely considering what Lewis did to his brother who most believe is a lot more durable than Wald. Brewster had Wald out of the fight with a couple of solid shots. No way Klitchko has a better chin than Rahman. As for the matchup of course Klitchko will be the favorate due to his boxing skills not his chin. But watch what happens to Klitchko if he gets hit with a solid shot. He will be on the deck again only this time he will be put down by a very washed up Rahman.
