Best glass-jaws

[Stoppage]

Can you name any good boxers who had glass-jaws? In other words, couldn't take punches well.

Floyd Patterson was knocked down more than any other heavyweight champion, but Patterson also got up more than any other heavyweight champ. So I guess where his chin gave up, his heart took over.

Damn right Mr Patterson takes this one. Other notables follow:

Thomas Hearns
Lennox Lewis
Wlad Klitschko
Nigel Benn
Herol Graham
Joe Louis
Jersey Joe Walcott
Meldrick Taylor
Felix Trinidad
POST HEAVYWEIGHT Roy Jones

Punchers like shavers,hearns,jackson and benn usually get thrown into the mix,Somewhat unfairly in my opinion.Stamina and endurance usually play a huge part in most stoppages and punchers usually suffer from these

Herol Graham ?

i cannot recall his chin letting him down, only when he got poleaxed by a Julian Jackson bomb, but if thats the case against Herol Graham then you would have to add Terry Norris & Buster Drayton to the list

Yea the Julian Jackson fight jumped to mind first, he collapsed like a sack of spuds, but the Brewer fight jumps to mind too. Granted he was past his best...........maybe I'm being a bit harsh, damn the man was hard to hit though!

Yes Terry Norris could be included too.

Terry Norris should be included. His first fight against Simon Brown was one of the worst displays of punch resistance that I've ever seen. He was wobbled in numerous other fights as well but this was pretty much at the peak of his boxing career.

Apparently Graham was also knocked cold by Howard Eastman in training for that Brewer fight, and its pretty much common knowledge that Eubank put him on his back in sparring to.

Late in his career against Charles Brewer but then again he was washed up at nearly 40 years of age.

He was also upset by Frank Grant in a 9th round stoppage loss but in his prime he was only stopped by Julian Jackson which is no shame really.
