[Marko Polo]

O’Malley

 

[GeneTunney7]

Not on roster but the greatest glass cannon of all time is Melvin Manhoef.

 

[Patman]

They all end up glass cannon eventually.
Just look the cream of the MW division 6 years ago: Weirdman, Luke, Jacare, Anderson. GranpaPing, Vitor, Cheeta, all PURE GLASS now.
They you have suspects like Till, Urial, Derek, Costa, Bobby, suspect chins to say at least.
The iron chin belongs to Izzy, that's why he is the champ. Gastelum pummeled that head for 4 rounds, Izzy wouldn't go down.

Izzy took some shots but that was a clear decision win

 

[El Fernas]

Omalley, got KO'd or injured in half his UFC fights.

 

[DoctorsStoppage]

Izzy took some shots but that was a clear decision win

Some? The guy was swollen.

That chin held on though.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

How are you fuckers forgetting rockhold?

Rockhold smashes people on the ground, he's more like a glass pneumatic drill.

Hell of a cannon. He slept Hunt FFS. Granted,

Some? The guy was swollen.

That chin held on though.

He bruises easily like Fedor. Can’t judge damage by swelling. Eye pokes and grazing shots can cause cuts and swelling.

Hell of a cannon. He slept Hunt FFS. Granted, Hunt thought he could just mow him down but Melvin’s hands were too heavy.

Who would you say is the current biggest glass cannons of the roster? Fighters who have insane power but also suspect chins.

You got Buckley who has insane power and underrated cardio, but can be slept with half the power he throws at you.

Spann was wobbling from shots that Smith barely grazed him with, and was shaking from jabs. Walker also KOed him with weaker looking elbows after being dropped twice.

Derrick Lewis can absolutely throw, but his KO losses looked pretty pathetic. Look at the hook kick that Shawn Jordan landed on him and it barely boops his nose, and his latest TKO losses he just turtles up from people willing to pressure him a little.

You could give a good argument for Cody as well, throws missiles but gets clocked by them and downed just as easy

How can you leave Conor off the list?

 

[ultra321]

How are you fuckers forgetting rockhold?

yup captain check hook...lol

 

[DestinedAussie]

Lewis has been beaten for numerous rounds only to come back right before the time runs out. Most of his big wins are him losing until he won. So I don't think it's right to call him a glass cannon.

Yeah Lewis is tough. He takes a lot of punishment to deal punishment. His KO losses have been fatigue/not being able to get out of position rather than be ko'd clean.

 

[Red Dragoniop]

hope to see this woman beater get ktfo again

 

[thelovacluka]

Conor, has to be named. Not specifically his chin, but mostly his heart and motivation once the fight doesn't go his way.

yep

 

[Ballsaque]

AA

He has no power and a good chin at this point, if anything.

 

[blaseblah]

Derek Brunson has a questionable chin but it doesn't get tested the most considering he's a great grappler

He's not really a threat on the feet

 

[TheMessiah]

Conor, Julian Erosa, Weidman, Cowboy, Walker (has good recovery though)

 

[OverhandRightKayo]

Who are you?

Yeah, I think calling Derrick Lewis a glass cannon is a stretch here. He's been stopped with strikes 3 times in the last six years. And that's by Mark Hunt, JDS, and Gane. Hell, I'd probably be TKOed by at least two of those guys.

 

[OverhandRightKayo]

He's not really a threat on the feet

He has a PhD in bum rush.

 

[Mavrilicious]

Conor, has to be named. Not specifically his chin, but mostly his heart and motivation once the fight doesn't go his way.

Got no moxy in comparison to his peers
