Why is Jorge Linares champion?

[SugarRayCurtain]

Hes terrible and having title defenses against bums
The moment he steps up with a C+ level opponent (like Antonio De Marco) he'll get flattened.

Hes a slapper with no power and defence, and a bad chin.
Just shows how weak the division is if he is even a title holder

[Rahat]

Hes a good fighter with tremendous handspeed but a crap chin reminds me of khan a bit

[FinitoxDinamita]

You dont know sht about boxing , literally.

[gmc_rfc_06]

Linares is a tremendous fighter.

He's got a vulnerable chin, that's the only real flaw.

[FinitoxDinamita]

Chin and durability are different traits. Linares has taken many big shots and has absorbed it well. Maybe he cuts too easily.. it is his skin, not the chin.

Glass chin is misused by too many casuals.

[Kaspa9t9]

Jorge Linares is class. He has beautiful fluid technique, with his thin skin being one of his weaknesses.

I think he's great to watch when he's on form.

That's like describing Jacobs. Yet no one ****s on Mikey. GGG takes these types of chinny fighters, hell breaks loose.
