He's the closest thing to James Toney since prime James Toney. I don't understand why he doesn't have a bigger fan base. For years I've maintained, he's about the most naturally talented prospect out there, just he doesn't put in the work and really has major major mental problems. If he can focus and not get into trouble for drugs and gangbanging and whatever else, he'll be something special. I remain skeptical though.
He only got knocked down once and his glove touched the canvas... He's pretty good.. He performed well!
Brickhaus, he's well known in boxing circles in Detroit and has a decent fan base here. The reason he's not bigger in the Motor City is that he's had some inconsistent performances and long layoffs. He got booed in Detroit (actually Pontiac) we he fought Augustus on the Bradley/Alexander undercard. The potential is there, though. This was the best I have seen him look and I've watched him fight several times, including a handful of times live.
He needs a lot of work defensively from what I saw. He threw nice combinations on the inside and threw some serious body shots, but while throwing, his hands were down and his chin was up. He's open for a counter left hook when he jabs too. This was only my second/third time watching him fight, but I like what I see. Hopefully he can improve and stop being such a head case.
No, what's pathetic is that modern "boxing fans" can't spot a Glass Jaw when it's thrust into their faces. The guy got shook on multiple occasions by a feather fister with 5 KOs. If you don't have the deductive ability to ascertain what's going to happen when that Fragile Glass Mandible meets a left hook from a fighter with some pop who knows what he's doing on the inside, then you're obviously in denial about the existence of Glass Jaws in boxing!:deal
Line 'em up for me and I'll shatter them all with a single blow. :bbb I guarantee you they're all crystalline pussies.
QFT...what pisses me off is that these guys fought their asses off and the punk ass TS ignores that to make a claim of some glass jaw joke...Its really pisses me off man! Spot on post!
Explain why my opinion is worthless rather than just being the typical denier and saying, "waaaa! no he doesn't have a China Chin!!!!". Oh, that's right, you can't because the guy is obviously lacking proper punch resistance and when you add that into the fact that he likes to fight inside and lacks the defense to do so you should be able to see that he's a KO waiting to happen.
It's not a Glass Jaw Joke but an educational message to boxing fans who, by the looks of this thread, can't spot a China Chinned Hype Job when it's blatantly obvious. The point of this thread was to tell you that the guy can't take a punch so that you won't be surprised when he fights a legit puncher and wakes up staring at the doctor's penlight. If this Glass Jawed Joke fights somebody who can crack go on and toss some money on it because he's going to get sparked out and violently.:rofl:hi:
