If your punch resistance is evidently fragile - as in you get hurt by NON-punchers when getting hit anywhere above the neck - that means you have a glass/weak/china chin, right?
There's not such a thing as a glass/weak/china TEMPLE fighter, right?
If you can't take a shot you can't take shot. And that's all she wrote. Fact.

There's something to be said about how/where the punch lands though. Look at Mundine, badly ko'd by Ottke on a punch to the temple that didn't look all that impressive, yet he was able to withstand flush shots from a guy like Kessler, who has way more power than Ottke.
Yea but how do you explain this Fenster Anthony Mundine was KO'ed witha temple shot from a light hitter like Sven Ottke but managed to survive a 12 round wat against a big puncher in Mikkel Kessler.........Quote:

Even Antonio Margarito was staggered from a temple shot from Daniel Santos............
Lol CFH just looked at your post and you was thinking the same as me thats exactly how i feel aswell.
Yeah.. there's probably "freak" shots that have a marked effect on iron-chinned fighters - Gatti put Ward on queer street with a punch around the ear area - if i remember right.
Mundine turned into a very defensive minded fighter though. Did Kessler really cream him throughout their fight? Mundine fights like a "scared to get hit" fighter.
Tell me of some iron-chinned fighters that have been visibly shaken by temple shots?
Kessler didn't "cream" him, but he hit him with some flush right hands that would've dropped/stopped a glass-chinned fighter.Quote:

That is Interesting. :scratchchin:
Never under estimate a solid temple/ear shot :fight:.Seems your mind is still right but the system shorts out.
Antonio Margarito against Daniel Santos, Marvin Hagler against Thomas Hearns.Quote:

Yeah - Margarito like Hagler wasn't hurt to point of falling all over the shop.. and they were BOTH being hit by tremendous punchers.Quote:

;D nice vid......Im possibly in the minority here but I really think Tony was on his way to inflicting serious hurt on Santos as it was going down the stretch.I had him up by 2 points when it was stopped :-XQuote:
