This is what you call granite chins...

[gratz_the_king]

ill say a few things:

1.) im sure thats "entertaining" to a bunch of drunken rednecks, but it was actually quite sloppy and a huge mess. i prefer real skill and technique (that only boxing can provide) over that crap
2.) both guys gassed 1 minute into the fight
3.) most of those punches have no steam on them due to the fighters being gassed, and the fighters also having poor boxing technique. they might have "granite chins" by muay thai/kick boxing standards, but in a boxing match they would get sparked out in under 20 seconds

those guys have a hell of a chin

but what about 200lb+ samoans known to be huge punchers?

just to prove my point i made above...watch this video:

there is your "granite chinned" fighter getting sparked out by a top 200 boxer in 40 seconds. in K-1, he is a legend, and has an IRON chin...but when he steps into a boxing ring, his chin is exposed as glass...

see what i mean?

kickboxing and mma are a joke compared to boxing

[gratz_the_king]

oh and for the record, the blonde haired guy from that kickboxing video whos fighting ray sefo is named mark hunt. hes considered to have an iron chin in MMA and K-1

rumor has it though that he got sparked out and got a concussion from sparring with his countryman david tua.

yea david tua hits hard, but i dont recall him giving out concussions to LEGIT boxers who have sparred with him in the past...did he give holyfield a concussion? nope... only the glass jaw mma fighter

lmaoooo

Don't they show these foos how to clinch, jab, use angles and movements, etc.? It was good for entertainment value, though.

They've both paid the price for that sort of bravado though.

Mercer was done after one kick in K1. It was an old Mercer, but he could still take a punch or two in boxing.

hmmm, well Sefo's chin wasnt so hot here...



I hate being a negative nancy, but if those guys in the opening video had proper punching technique and really had their bodies behind each shot, they wouldve gone down pretty quick.

They still have fantastic chins, of course, but...Im just sayin...

Damn that was insane..
