Roy Jones Chin

[Max Power]

If there's one thing I have noticed over the years it's that all of the most elite boxers who hardly ever get hit, like Jones, are all accused of 2 things..

- They lack chin, and "hide" behind "skills" and/or "range" and/or "speed" and/or "strength"

AND

- They lack fundamental boxing skills, and "hide" behind "speed" and "reflexes" and "movement"

Therefore anybody who encapsulates the ideal boxing form, to beat the hell out of your opponent whilst barely getting hit back, automatically becomes WORSE than a guy who can barely box but takes a lot of punches.

Something is wrong with this picture I think.

It's actually ridiculous to think that Roy had a "weak" chin. Sure, he did not have a chin of iron or anything but he had to have "decent" chin. Otherwise he could not have been as successful as he was despite his skillset, championship level boxing demands your chin is atleast decent with regards to the calibre of your opposition.

And individual attributes are of only minor importance anyhow. Win/loss, and KO/non-KO and quality of opposition is what ultimately matters.

Roy Jones is among the best boxers lb for lb of all time. That counts for more than anything regarding his chin.
