Favorite Rising Star?

As for Lewis, I wouldn't say he had a glass chin, but it wasn't that great, either.

But he was poleaxed and dazed for a week by Oliver McCall in 2 and Rahman in 5 off of one hit.

Those were not big KO punchers - They were C class fighters, actually.

I never believed Lewis to have a glass jaw but by your logic I would say he does.

And your 9 out of 10 fights thing I don't understand, because he has only lost one fight in his career.

You're just riding the bandwagon. Once he has 40 fights under his belt I think we'll have a better idea.

Both Rahman and McCall were good enough punchers, to pull an upset. You might be the only one that thinks otherwise.

He was taking some good shots from Rahman, before the knockout. Not to mention that he was under-trained, as well. So I wouldn't classify that as having a glass chin. But I did admit that he doesn't have a good chin, as evidenced by those two knockout losses.

Where did I mention something about 9 out of 10 fights? I never used anything like that, as an example.

I'm not a band-wagoner. I'm a fan of Khan's, but I just tell it like it is. You can believe whatever you want, though. Go ahead and think his chin is made of iron. I don't care.

I did not say it was made of Iron, I just don't believe we've seen enough to assume it is made of glass, as you believe.

Its stronger at 140 no doubt

So carlos' contribution of the day is Khan's chin is iron and Lennox Lewis' chin is glass. That and Breidis Prescott belongs right up there with Mike Tyson in terms of punching power and accuracy. :thinking1:

Anyhow, I haven't given up on Danny Jacobs yet, but he's certainly shown some chnks in the armor and has a very talented young crop of middleweights to compete with.
