    Lubin has a weak chin.

    I think Lubin might have a weak chin. He got brutally KOed by Jermell, who isn't that hard of a puncher, and rocked by Gausha.

          OP contradicted himself twice in one thread. I think the jury's still out on his chin. I can't say it's weak, but it's questionable right now. He still the most skilled currently at 154.

            How does Lubin have a weak chin when he got rocked by a temple shot in the Gausha fight? A temple shot.

            Who wouldn't wobble from a temple shot??? He got hit with several big shots after getting rocked and he still kept his footing.

            I'd hardly say his chin is weak, regardless of what happened in the Charlo fight. He's been hurt and stopped by shots that would stop most fighters.

                Unfortunately I think you are correct, I've been a big Lubin fan for a while now, but his chin is going to be his downfall imo

                  Is he the most skilled? I saw flashes of it but nothing that consistent. Also his chin is not that good clearly.

                    Naw Lubin is OK, he kinda "Fell Asleep" vs Gausha and lost respect for his power and got sloppy and Gausha clipped him on the top of his head not even on his Chin and it threw off his Equilibrium but he recovered well. Before that, he was boxing well and dominating. Hell even after that shot he recovered and hurt Guasha multiple times in the 12 and finished strong

                    Vs better opponents you will see him tighten things up more. Cunningham is the perfect trainer for him, he was telling him all fight "Don't Fall Asleep" and he did and Gausha made him pay for it. Lucky for him Gausha is not a big puncher but where he landed that shot it doesn't take much Power to knock off someone Equilibrium when you hit that Temple Area and all of a sudden they have Vertigo

                    So whatever, also heard people say "Lennox Lewis Has A Weak Chin" "Wlad Has A Weak Chin" yet years and Decades Later both are All Time Greats. Not comparing Lubin to those Legends BUT, you can overcome a Suspect or Shaky Chin in Boxing...Try not to get it in it as much and certainly not with big shots. That is why Lennox used his Jab more as well as Wlad used his jab an also wasn't too prideful to Clinch to avoid getting hit with something he didn't see coming
