oh i thought he was going down from being punched. thanks for clearing things up.
In my opinion he was never seriously hurt, unlike vs Sanders. And if we say he was hurt bad then he still survived to win clear and had Peter rocked in the 12th. Wlad did extremely well in that fight given the loss to Brewster and everybody saying he was done. Steward takes a lot of credit also.
IMO Wlads chin is indeed weak. This was brought out early in his career. Then he hooked up with Manny and developed a style that put that beard at a minimum risk.
lol 20 posters and counting have exposed themselves as Klitlickers. Only deranged nutters would defend Grabimir on chin discussions.
Every time this guy gets hit with a semi decent punch he staggers like a drunk sailor and immediately has to revert into a greco roman wrestler.
Even a featherfisted Pulev Rocked him with a jab lol.

wlad walked right into a straight left from pulev who I agree isnt a big puncher but he is a 240 lb heavyweight. anyone over 200 lbs can hurt you espescially if you get caught walking in. wlads chin obviously isnt granite but its certainly not glass either or he wouldnt have achieved what he has achieved. the poll is accurate imo. some of you hating morons just seriously lack boxing iq
His chin is glass, he uses illegal tactics to drain his opponent of energy and neutralize their inside fighting. His height make him hard to punch, the angle at which you must throw that punch that high is hard to both land and gain power as you must be within a reachable distance.
He holds and lays his 250lb body on the opponent, which in turn drains them of both energy and punching power. The fact that he's forced to this against the garbage that is the HW division is pretty sad. Shows how untalented he is. At least when guys like Hopkins are holding they're fighting world class competition, not Wlad though.

well,,,unlike slopkins wlad knocks them out almost every time. Id rather watch some mauling followed by a kayo than ugly foul filled decisions
Being able to take a punch is the MOST important attribute for a boxer. Without a doubt Grabimir has one of the WEAKEST chins of any HW champion in history. This among other reason why Grabimir can't beat 37 year old retirees, has to lean and hold over mediocre opponents and why he is such a weak H2H fighter.
So you disagree that Grabimir has a terrible mandible that cracks whenever it gets tagged? Why does Grabimir totter like a baby giraffe ever time he is hit? He couldn't survive the punches from the obese south african retiree golfer and ran away from the rematch so the better brother could take revenge.
He has only made it this long because of the terrible era he is fighting in and the refs in Germany allow him to hug onto to his opponents.
