    Can you do anything about a glass chin?

    I was just wondering if you can do anything about a weak chin? Here are a couple of views from two great trainers:

    Goody Petronelli, the only trainer Marvelous Marvin Hagler ever knew, always used to say, “You can’t train a chin.’’

    Angelo Dundee, who guided the great Muhammad Ali, sees no great mystery. “You can't train a chin,” he said, simply.

    Thoughts anyone?

      Increase your neck's agility. It will only help a little, there is no absolute cure for a porcelain mandible.

              there is really nothing you can do, you can get better, or train you neck til it's as thick as an ox's, but there is always the sweet spot.

              it's more about nerves and how your brain rattles around in your head. there is a nerve ending at the chin on both sides right down from the corner of your mouth called the mental foremen, and when it's hit hard you'll go out or be doing the chicken dance.
