Anyone else agree that Roy Jones always had a glass chin?

[Vadrigar.]

That's true, but he also landed some great punches on roy's chin. In round 9 and i believe, he almost knock roy out.

If you view the video I posted it explains how a fighter can loose his chin while fighting weight drained:


5:11 onwards

Jones fought the last 7 rounds of the fight by heart and desire.

Haters will ask "How does losing weights effect the chin?"
Well, here is an explaination by a guy who fought jones in his prime, Vinnie Paz:

Obviously Abraham is the harder puncher. That still gives you no idea how hard Jones was hit during his career. Are you trying to say he never took any flush hard shots before finally getting stretched?

I figured I wouldn't get an answer to this.

so did terry norris and floyd patterson and that doesnt stop anyone saying they had glass chins.having a suspect chin doesnt mean you get rocked or knocked out as soon someone hits you.

You're still not answering the question. Was Jones or was he not ever hit flush in his prime? Both Patterson and Norris were put down in their primes (Patterson can be excused), Jones was not.

the odd clean shot but nothing that stood out and made you think wow how did he take that.he rarely got hit clean.roy jones was in his prime against del valle too.

why can patterson be excuses and not norris?

So you're saying Jones was never hit even though he fought many top fighters? Lol, you need to go review some film before making baseless claims.

Patterson was a natural light heavy who moved to heavyweight for the money. Big difference from fighting in you natural division.

no he was a heavyweight and he was getting put down by guys who were similar size to him.

NO, just because he fought at heavyweight doesn't make him a natural heavyweight. Was Jones a natural heavyweight when he fought Ruiz?

If he always had a glass jaw he should have been stopped sooner, no?
