    Wow, just wow! Biggest upset in a while. I thought Thompson was a dead man walking after the way he looked against Klitschko.

      Not to UK BoxingFans: When we state a fighter "Does not have a Chin", we simply mean that he cannot take a punch.

            Almost no one can take a perfect equilibrium punch so chin is not the operative word.

              You must be familiar with the phrase, so stop trying to argue it now you know you are wrong.

                Again, there is a big difference when you say a fighter cannot take a shot, chin or otherwise if a fighter has only been stopped once due to an equilibrium shot.

                  Dont be an idiot. One KO loss from an equilibrium or chin shot does not mean he has a bad chin, especially if it was an equilibrium shot.

                    ONE KO loss does not equal a bad chin. That claim can be made when a fighter wobbles everytime he is hit clean or has a few KO losses. Time will tell.

                      Actually it's you that's being the idiot. The phrase '...doesn't have a good chin' is a general term for not being able to cope with a clean shot. How many fighters have been KO'd by shots that are flush to the face, but don't actually connect with the chin? Loads. How many clean KO shots do you see that actually connect right on the chin? not many. You can argue it all you like, but Price was KTFO because he cannot take a 'clean shot', to the chin or anywhere else for that matter.
