Why is Roy Jones Jr chin considered so terrible?

Castro caught him w/ some looping overhand rights that appeared to land flush, & Toney nailed him w/ a flush right while he was in the midst of a flurry (I believe it was this 1 here):

Because his chin was terrible. Duh.

 

Thanks man, I'll take a look at these later.

 

Does not prove anything. Hopkins was never a big hitter. Toney was weight drained and had no power. I am not even going into Castro.

 

As a fan of Roy im glad he has the first Tarver fight. That was a tough nite. He dug deep and got the W.

 

He was in his youth. He was also the only fighter for many years to stop Glen Johnson & the only ever to stop Tito.

You should.

Jones always had a glass jaw. He just hid it well mostly by fighting poor opposition. But when you finally saw it in the pros, boy oh boy it was a bad chin.

Even in the amateurs he was known for packing glass, he was knocked out in the amateurs by an Irish fighter called John Reid, and dropped numerous times.

 

I don't get it either tbh. Never thought about it before but you're right. Maybe people speculating he couldn't handle HW? Thats pretty fair. Don't know why anyone would expect a Bivol to stop RJJ. Beterbievs one thing but Bivol?

 

That is such an untrue post I'm not even going to begin to address it.

 

Because people do not like perfection they have to find SOMETHING wrong.
So now its Roy HID his chin for a DECADE in the pros and was sooooo fast that nobody could lay a glove on him and the minute he slowed down his chin was exposed lol.

 

Your case is weak.
early on Bhop knocked out bums.. against Trinidad p, that stoppage came after an accumulation of punishment in the later rounds.not too mention that Tito did not have a good chin either.the truth is Bhop was never regarded as a big hitter

 

lit

homestly I do not see anything wrong with that suggestion.Glen Johnson who did not even hit that hard knocked him the **** out cold. Enough said.

 

How old was Roy when that happened?

 

Right so for over a decade not one boxer at the top level was ever able to land one Soild punch on Jones.
Think how stupid that sounds.

 

It is not stupid. In which fight do you think Roy's chin was proven?
