this was a forehead shot. Has anyone in boxing history got 1 punch forehead shotted? Essentially Ortiz's defense was sound. He was basically in Tyson's peakaboo defense that guard protects his chin and one side of the temple. They leave the forehead open to take punishment.
Forehead is the hardest part of the skull. Ear, temple and chin shots are aplenty. Forehead shots are rare.
GGG has one

Any others?
That GGG one is more of lateral shot though and almost in temple range. Getting your head rocked that way is a lot worse than straight on which makes that Wilder punch all the more impressive.
If anything, Ortiz was hit closer to the temple. Watch the video again and you'll see Ortiz turned his head just before the shot landed.
His defence was sound...other than he inexplicably moved right into wilder’s right hand. There was no benefit to moving to his left in that spot.
It's just another example of how apt that quotes about having to be perfect for twelve rounds vs. being perfect for one second is. It was probably just a small lapse in judgement on Ortiz's part that normally wouldn't cost him much, if anything at all. Against Wilder it cost him everything.

Wilder’s power all time is definitely top 10!
If he can KO the rest of his peers like Fury, Ruiz, AJ, Kownacki, and Parker then it’s top 5 all time!
Funny thing is he could believably knock them all out but the results is what matter!
Can’t wait to see him try!

- -Half forehead/half temple.
Forehead shots just as common as others but not the desired Ko target because of hand breakage.
Kov was tapping Canelo forehead all night for points.
Time to study up!

Forget the technicalities. I want for everyone to feel the side of ure head (a little meaty with bone right) now feel directly in the center of your forehead. (Very Hard and very little meat) I get what they are saying. That ggg punch landed on the side where it's not as hard as the center of your forehead.

No clue what you're even getting at. Probably something racial. I'm a business owner and you are a dude who spams a forum with a lot of low IQ threads. No one is fooled.
you're delusional.
having the glove there automatically would make the punch whiff.
can you hit someone's chin if their glove is there?
think about it in terms of physics
That's why he throws that shot cause it's hard to block that trajectory. Seems like an equilibrium destroying shot to me but if you just wanna call me delusional and be arrogant then that's cool too.
Was just trying to contribute discussion to your thread....
You found the only skull anatomy diagram that's not segmented. :lol1:
If you gotta make stuff up so you can pretend GG punched a forehead, go for it.
Fighters who punch foreheads are doing something extremely stupid so it's better if he didn't.
