    The same ones Fury been ducking. If you don't know by now, no one in the world can educate you.

    And if you are insinuating Fury has only been dropped by big punchers... then you're even more clueless then I thought.

    Liver is non-negotiable. How you handle the shots to the sides and ribs is up to your pain tolerance and composure unless the latter crack.

    Ali took monstrous shots to the body I just don't see majority of other heavyweights taking.

    That being said, Usyk handles shots from top punchers extremely well.

    Couldn’t have said it better myself. There is no such thing as a Glass Body. A well placed body shot to the liver area will debilitate anyone. Same can’t be said for The Chin. Shots that knock out Glass Jawed fighters are eaten up and laughed at by Iron Chinned Warriors. We’ve seen this over and over. There is no such thing as “that punch would have KOed anyone” when it is to the head. We know that’s a lie perpetrated by fanboys of Glass Jawed fighters.

    Hmm let me think Anthony Joshua ? Who recently dismantled two opponents who took Fury the distance in close fights ?

    Do glass testicles exists too?

    Every part of the human body becomes more ''glassy'' when you're fighting huge punchers and murderous punching KO artists, let alone ones who are way bigger than you and Usyk has fought more legit bangers and KO artists than any other current champ in the sport.

    In fact, he's fought many of the biggest punchers in the entire sport when many of his celebrated peers have barely fought any legit punchers their own size, let alone a whole bunch of the biggest punchers in the sport and huge punchers who are way bigger than them.

    Glass jaws are a thing. A truly disgusting thing and glass-jawed freaks are a gigantic black stain on the sport.

    And yes, we must never relent in our pursuit of weeding these repulsive defective gene freaks and embarrassments out of the sport and mocking and ridiculing them mercilessly every chance we get.

    And we should also weed out these gutless sneaky glass-jawed frauds who attempt to keep their glass hidden by navigating their careers by avoiding big punchers

    Hand on heart, there's nothing in this world that fills me with more disgust than a fighter with below average punch resistance.

    But glass bodies are not a thing

    It's very hard to take Fury fans seriously and try to engage in an intelligent debate with them if you're trolling this badly. There's pretty much a consensus that Usyk has fought the most hard punchers out of any active boxers, and in the two heaviest weight classes, no less.

    He fought and beat Briedis, who broke Opetaia's jaw. He fought and beat Gassiev, who has a 77% KO ratio. He fought and beat Joshua, who has an 89% KO ratio and knocked out Ngannou, Wallin, and Klitschko—fighters whom Fury didn't even come close to hurting, let alone knocking out. He fought and beat Dubois, who has a 95% KO ratio.

    A good body shot can take all you have to not fold to. The idea that the spectrum of toughness in which to endure that shot is all within roughly the same range across all fighters, seems like a stretch. More likely, theres a percentage that wont take body shots well and a percentage that will take them better, due to factors like pain tolerance and intrinsic toughness.

    If you spend time in gyms and hear people talk you can sometimes hear things like 'he cant take it to the body'... many fighters know glass bodies exist, imo, from experience.

    First time I hear this term I swear, but, unlike glass jaws, shouldn't this be avoidable with great conditioning in theory?

    :lol: There have been several cards where the B side Filipinos loose via body shot KO one by one. Such an odd thing because they are usually super though.

    Oh indeed. I usually watch two or three cards from Japan every week and when I see a Filipino fighter there I already know it's gonna end with them losing via bodyshot KO.
