    Default Fighters you suspect have a GLASS JAW 100%

    IMO and many will disagree, I think Floyd Mayweather cant take a punch and he knows it, like Roy Jones and Fernando Vargas and Lennox Lewis, all really REALLY EXAGGERATEDLY RAN LIKE ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE away from punches.

    Well yes, a boxer SHOULD run the hell away from punches, but the way THEY ran their little tails off at the slightest feint or punch, it always seemed to me that they knew they couldn't take too good a shot.

    Now ODLH can REALLY take a good shot. So could Larry Holmes, and so could Mike Tyson, Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali. I would say they were the OPPOSITE of the Glass Jaw crew above.

    this just goes to show that you know jackshit about boxing, glass jaw crew to me would be, Amir Khan, Tommy Hearns, Wlad Klitschko, etc.
    Jones' losses by KO were more from dropping to light heavy, he really hasn't been hurt after the 3rd fight with Tarver, a fight he could have won, Vargas didn't really have a glass jaw, he took a vicious beating by Trinidad and after 5 knockdowns was finally stopped in the 12th after giving Tito fits, Lewis i always ragged him on having a glass chin, but although it was far from being Iron it was half decent WHEN he came in fully focused, Mayweather has taken flush shots and although has been rocked never has gone down, and recouperates quickly, next we'll hear that Whitaker, Hopkins, and Wright were so defensive cause they can't take a punch

    best chins in boxing IMO
    Vitali Klitschko
    Erik Morales
    George Chuvalo
    and others

    I totally disagree about Lewis,he only lost to fighters he did not take seriously first time out but got payback in the rematch with both fighters. So ok,McCall had a breakdown,but he would have lost if he was at his best,and "the Rock" was exposed in the rematch that he lost. How many heavyweights have beaten every man they have faced? not many.
    The best pound for pound fighter in the world right now,Pacquiao,has 3 losses on his record,so when People are still writing Amir Khan off right now,i have to laugh. They both have the best trainer in the world,and where the packman is right now,at the top,that could be Amir in 3 years time. Feel free to disagree??

    Also,why is Chris Eubank not mentioned as a solid chin? Now that really WAS the toughest chin i saw on any boxer. He maybe carried on too long,as he never did recover from the brutal second meeting with Michael Watson,but man,through his showmanship,or confidence/arrogance (call it what you will) he was one tough dude!
    Sad though,as both Eubank and Nigel Benn,(Benn V Gerald McCllelan) after almost killing people in the ring,they were never the same fighter afterwards,and it is very understandable why.

    did you not read what i wrote about Lewis?!? i said he had a good chin, and that the only times he was sparked was when he wasn't fully prepared or took the fight seriously...

    You know nothing about boxing.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4SQmxIP5Bk

    Lewis was KO'd by shots he didn't see coming from BIG fighters... Heavyweights... if 240 pounds hits you on the chin and you don't see it coming then you're going down.

    Roy Jones... find me one instance where Jones was heart by anything other than a massive punch right on his chin...

    It's a common misconception that Jones was never hit until Tarver managed to transfer 100% of himself into Roy's Chin. He was elusive but he could be hit.

    The only other knockdowns he's had are after taking a sustained beating for what?... 9 rounds from Johnson and a flash knock down from another lighty heavy that he bounced back up from unaffected.

    All Light Heavyweights (they don't fuck about... these boys can punch).. Ruiz hit Jones flush a few times, he's not a punch but he's a legit heavy weight and Jones started off as a LIGHT MIDDLE WEIGHT.

    there are obviously fighters with better chins out there but to say that somebody who started his career as a 154lb fighter who went on to win titles in every weight class upwards from there a GLASS JAW shows that you don't know shit.

    Great post Adam.

    And as for PBF, he took some good shots off a very game ODLH and came out on top.

    Also if he is anything like his father he will have a great punch resistance, see the Leonard fight!

    I didn't say Floyd has a glass jaw, I stated that I suspect him, which I always do; He didn't get landed that flush by power punch by oscar but look at the Judah and Hatton's fights, a good jab and a good straight flush sent him reeling, perhaps it is just coincidence but in my own opinion, it is enough to raise suspicions

    I dont think any of the three had glass jaws really.It Blows me away when people point to Lewis having a china chin off of his two KO losses,basically boiling his career down to just two shots....both that were avenged with exclamation marks.I think those defeats had much more to do with a soggy state of mind and lack of preparedness.

    In no way was he a runner but a calculating boxer who knew how to use his size,when the shite hit the fan,he could explode on the inside or outside.He's soaked up and faced some very respectable punchers from the better known Razor Ruddock,Holyfield,Ray Mercer,Mike Tyson,Frank Bruno,Tommy Morrison,David Tua,Briggs,Klitschko,Rahman save for ONE.....to the not so huge players but good hitters in Butler,Phil Jackson,Michael Grant,Tucker.He may have been moved and effected in spots but He deserves a little prospective.He wasn't exactly being iced by jabs,nor facing lightweights.

    I don't just "suspect" Khan has glass chin. Imo, he is guilty, convicted, and sentenced in that category.
