    There's no way Rahman's chin is better than Wlads. No possible way.

    On the contrary, Rahman's chin is MUCH worse than Wlad's. Rahman's been KOd more often, more brutally, than Wlad ever has. Wlad has never been knocked out cold, let alone out of the ring. Rahman has been put to sleep several times.

    Hasim is probably going to get lucky...just because nobody thinks he can do it. It might be some freak thing.


    There is no way Rock should win...but Pac said something about being the lucky fighter after the win over DLH...and that's sticking with me.

    Rock can get lucky...and put WLAD on ***** street.

    ...get lucky, Wlad, and ***** street shouldn't be said together. This isn't HBO and I'm not Larry Merchant.

    He'll only get lucky if Wlad is bored and unmotivated and if truth be told both fighters looked bored as hell in the pre-fight press conferences. I still figure Wlad to win because Rachman is so damn fat but he has that big punch. Anything can happen when the heavweights start swinging.

    No one is trying to say that young Klitschko has an ironclad jaw.

    So Klitschko would deserve little credit if he does stop or knock Rahman out then? :think

    Rahman has a Glass Jaw. Anyone that says different is clueless.

    How many more times does he have to brutally KOed before people realize this? :rofl

    Are you F serious? Of course Cunnigham gas a glass jaw. He was rocked every time Adamek touched him.

    In order to have a glass jaw you must be put out by light punchers...

    A glass jaw is not someone who is only KOd by the most powerful punchers...failure to realize this makes you clueless.

    PUh-leez. Maskaev's rep as a "puncher" is made almost exclusively off his knockouts of who?? Glass-Jawed Rahman, that's who!! Who else of note has he starched? He couldn't even rock Peter who was put on ***** street by light-hitting McCline.

    Boxing history is riddled with many fighters who knock out glass-jawed opponents to make a rep. Rahman is just another china-chinned fighter who makes a useful foil to provide spectacular knockouts, as he will tonight.

    The key to identifying a glass jaw is the QUALITY of the knockout. Rahman doesn't just get stopped, he gets annihilated. Short of Herbie Hide and Fraudley, he has probably the worst chin among rated fighters in the HW division in the last 20 years - FAR worse than Wlad, who has never been knocked out cold like Rahman has, multiple times!
