Wlad's chin

[gmc_rfc_06]

Well when you are hit with a big punch you have a few options. Either to hold, or to protect yourself or to try to trade. The last is the most dangerous and not very clever (Chisorra is the latest proof of that).

Wlad took that Haye punch and was still coordinated enough to hold (same what Lennox did when Vitali landed that direct - he was holding till Vitali pushed him - nothing wrong with it).

Wlad doesn't have a POOR chin it is an average chin when you compare it to all HW champions and very good when you compare it to top contender fighters. Of course if you compare it to Vitali's chin it is poor, but so is Lennox's compared to Vitali's.

He's been floored 12 times, he has a poor chin.

He's big enough and skilled enough at this stage to not get caught completely clean, but quite like Amir Khan, if he gets caught by a puncher, he'll be in some trouble.

In how many fights he was floored that many times?! He got up 4 times in Sanders fight, 3 times in Peters fight, 3 times in Brewster fight. Actually he never was KOed, he was TKOed.

You compare him to Khan so it really lost the purpose to discuss it with you anymore...

You said he took a 'huge' punch....from a guy with a 50% KO ratio against bums.

You said his chin was 'very good' compared to contenders.

You compared Wach's power to Rahman's because they landed a similar type of shot....

That's not much of a discussion.

The Amir Khan comparison fits for one reason; Khan took big shots from Maidana (an actual big puncher), he must not have a terrible chin then...eh, no.
