    Best jaws I can think of:

    Marvin Hagler
    Julio Cesar Chavez
    George Chuvalo
    Jess Willard
    Muhammad Ali
    among others who I cant think of right now

    Margarito has shown pretty good punch resistance through his career.

    The trouble is, that when a fighter just 'goes' ...... their punch resistance seems to just disappear. We've even seen this from great fighters!

    I'd like to see the Internet Warriors who are so quick to sit on a computer and call fighters fake, cowards, cheats, glass jaw etc take a couple of shots from a professional fighter to just 'recalibrate' their grading systems.

    Did Ali have a fight once where his jaw got broke? Just goes to show you. An all time great,a true legend,but even the greatest boxers were human!

    Yes - he had his jaw broken during the first Norton fight. Lasted through to the end, but he lost the decision quite fairly.

    Joe Frazier got up 6 times afrter George Foreman nearly took his head off in Jamaica.

    Jess Willard had his jaw broken in four places, 7 teeth knocked out, two broken ribs, liver and kidney damage and a fractured eye socket in the FIRST ROUND against Jack Dempsey.

    Unbelievably, he gutted through, absorbed a horrific beating and was finally pulled out in the third or fourth.

    You're right, everybody's human ........ it's how people respond that differentiates the greats from mere mortals!

    How the fuck has Vargas even been mentioned in this thread??

    If fighters take some big shots then have to run a bit that's clever, they need to clear their heads before getting stuck back in.

    Any fighter who goes down from massive shots do not have a glass chin and anyone who gets knocked out from big shots does not have a glass chin. Anyone can be knocked out if caught right.

    Lewis had a good chin the 2 times he was knocked out those shots would have sparked anyone.

    A glass chin to me means a fighter who goes down from a punch that he should be able to take and isn't particularly hard. If he gets up then sweet try not to get caught again lol

    Same fight where people accuse him of loaded gloves right??
    I didn't know all the specifics to Willard's injuries, this makes me wonder...
    Considering how small Jack was compared to the giant.

    I've read Dempsey had his gloves checked before the fight BUT, so did Margarito against Cotto in a MUCH more secure manner.

    Yes he had plaster of paris
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    No, allegedly, he had plaster of paris against against others, but the rumour is that he was holding a coachbolt in his right hand against Willard. Willard swore blind in his autoboigraphy that he felt Dempsey hitting him with the bolt, and claims his corner found it drooped in the corner afterwards.

    look at the video, and Jack was 'slapping' sideways!!
