Oh yeah, the bookies will not forget him. I remember them getting stung big time with Thaxton/Ryan, that tip was steaming hot.
In a similar vein to Ryan, a mention to Pele Reid is needed, I think. ;D

Ahh Michael Grant. I remember being on the verge of convincing myself he was the next Great Heavyweight. I told everyone Grant is gonna be the next big thing.
F**ked that one up!

Yeah agree with you about Patterson, look @ the amount of times he went down against Johansson, @ don't even mention Liston.

Yeah bigrgu your right on Morrison's was more Fatigue after 3 or 4 rounds rather than weak chin. I was thinking back when Micheal Bent and Ray Mercer waxed the floor with him but that was really the only occasions. He validated his chin against Joe Hipp when he fought with the Broken Jaw and Ko'ed Hipp. Great Fight that was ! My Bad ! CC for bringing it to my attention

Never saw the hipp fight but would love to... If anyone has a link?????? Good point, though.... But broken Jaw and glass one r 2 different things.... U can break your jaw on just a strange angled punch but a glass jaw is pure force of impact and what your nogin can take.. or how thick the sack filled with fluid, around the brain is.

That punch he took against Kosta did not look that hard to me, and when you try to get up because you have all the energy and determination you need but your legs don't cooperate that means you have a glass chin.
No it doesn't, it means your body is reacting to the punch, it doesn't mean you have a glass chin
