David Price and now Juanma Lopez, people who say Khan are hilarious. He's chin may be just below average but he ate a lot from Maidana and stayed on his feet. Khan's problem is he fights with his chin in the air. That's just asking to be knocked out.
Do glass jaws exist in boxing? Post examples of what exemplifies a glassy mandible.

Not saying these guys disintegrate when they get hit but when they do they're doing the stanky leg.Last edited by silentscoper; 08-09-2015, 03:58 PM.Comment

I say jones had a bad chin. was so good hardly got hit. I don't think ruiz barely an average puncher even landed on himDavid Price & Seth Mitchell are both great examples imo.
I think Amir Khan has a glass jaw to, in particular because his chin is like "eff this maaaaaan" while his body is still like "wtf bruh I didn't hear no bell".
I don't think RJJ can be thrown into the glass jaw category. He didn't really start to put down with ease until late in his career. If RJJ had a glass jaw he woulda got KO'd by Ruiz which was 30-35lbs from his peak weight if not others.
I don't see Andre Ward or Manny Pacquiao can be defined as having a glass jaw either. Sure Ward has been down & Pacquiao even has some KO L's, but overall they've both been in with harder punching, more dangerous guys than most of the guys who knocked them down or KO'd Pacquiao.Comment

J'leon Love too. I think the stanky leg is one of the main signs of glass jaw syndrome.Comment

A solid chin keeps you up. Doesn't matter if you're lights out or not. If you go down and you lose, it makes no difference.
It doesn't make Wlad's chin better, that just means Lewis' is worse.Comment

very good conditioning keeps your legs under you when hammered. if you are in bad condition with a good chin you will go down. chin is half of itComment
