    Glass jaw is a phrase that ******ed boxing fans who can't breakdown a fighter hang onto to make themselves seem intelligent.

    Next to exposed, it's easily the most over used term in the history of boxing.

    A Ray of hope in the ignorance of boxing darkness.

    Drinking too much tea, Green Tea in particular, weakens the jaw i heard.

    I bet you're a Brit living in America, no? :hey

    You're right about that though... Brits are more fit and sophisticated.. They're more educated.

    I think a lot of them have had that straight up style, making them easier to catch on jaw. Some have had great jaws, Henry Cooper and Don Cockell are two. Frank Bruno had better chin than he's given creidit for.

    Hatton is so damn overated. I don't even care to se him and Pacquino. Mayweather is on a bereak, calling it a retirement. When he fights Pacquino it will be worth seeing.

    You are what you eat. It seems that the Brits like to eat glasses and jaws.

    You hit it right on their pommy heads...

    And they are ignorant of the art of slipping, sliding and rolling with punches, let alone getting under the shots. It's usually their tried and true pulling back that gets them KTFO... :nut
