Does Wilder have a good chin?

[leeroy84]

He's yet to fight anybody who can really test it (YES that' 43 fights!!! the WBC champ for 5 years!!) yet he's danced like a chicken and been dropped by lesser men.

Make's Wedgwoods of Stoke-on-Trent look like the purest diamond.

Wilder is protected for a reason.

Although noone has landed a really very powerful shot or a combo of very powerful shots on Wilder's chin so far, some solid shots reached his chin and it seems it is decent. He was seriously rocked by Molina and Ortiz but not enough to be floored. Certainly Wilder's chin is good enough for Fury, who would not be able to KO Wilder.

Watch his legs as he walks back to his corner



I thought he was ****ed when I watched it live. When I watched it the second time, I realized he wasn't hurt. Forget what Wilder says, Fury says, fans say, etc. The legs don't lie.

King Kong Ortiz landed 27 punches (including 22 power shots) on Wilder in the 7th round of their first fight. He got nailed square on the chin and then the barrage started. I was on BoxingScene when it happened and everyone in the RbR thread was saying it's over. Pretty much everyone was against him. He proved you all wrong and you still question his chin and heart. I mean, what more does he have to do.

HAHAH King Kong!!! Yeh, that monster!!!

Wilder calls Fury "Pillow Fists" but the big bad boogeyman monster can't even finish Hammer like "Pillow Fists" did... Hahahah

Love it! Thanks

Try to think of a fighter with his body type who had a great chin. I’ll wait.

Those Rafael Marquez, Bob Foster, Tommy Hearns types generally can’t take a heavy shot because they are too skinny. Wilders chin hasn’t been seriously tested yet but if I’m a betting man then I’d say he’s not very tough.

He’s definitely got a solid chin, combined with a lot of mental fortitude. He’s almost always outweighed and taken solid shots from many heavyweights.

Your argument is "Wilder has a bad chin because a few other guys had a bad chin several decades ago?"

History supports my observation. Tall skinny guys aren’t tough while shorter stockier guys are.

His chin seems good, certainly better than Joshua's, probably not on Ruiz's level or Parker's.

He has a good chin.
