Glover Teixeira's Chin

[king56]

his chin looks solid. he ate some of rampages hooks.


and didn't flinch

Glover has been knocked out so many times in his career, pf course his chin is made of porcelain.

 

[LORDASVP]

Seems pretty suspect to me

 

[crewman]

solid as rock.

in a fight dont be surprised if you take a few shots to the face, in the same way dont be surprised if you get water in your ears if you go swimming.

Is Glovers chin as bad as sherdog tries to make it seem? He was clipped by Fabio when he had his hands down and was staggered, but he recovered quickly (even though Joe Rogan was saying he was still hurt). And in the Bader fight he was dropped, but Bader has huge power. Quickly afterwards Glover knocks Bader out after recovering quickly. In the Rampage fight Glover also ate some big shots, so why is his chin questioned?

Bader fight could have gone either way, Glover can see himself lucky to go out of there with a win.
I wont say he has a glass chin, let's see against Jones.

He has a suspect chin, just remember the Fabio fight, he was dead tired,destroyed and still got that left hook on his chin and stunned him. From that moment on, I knew his chin was suspect.

Well considering he has 24 fights and only 1 tko loss that was in his first fight ever, it's at least pretty good.

Get got clipped twice by big hitters but recovered instantly.

Those are the kind of shots that hurt the most. The ones you don't see coming at all.

Where Glover lacks is in the striking defence department. His chin is pretty solid.

 

[BORCAT]

His chin is better then Hendo's

 

[Dutchbawz]

He gets rocked kinda easy but he has shown good recovery everytime.

 

[SherdogGoat]

His chin is pretty solid imo.

 

[Reel Box Fen**]

He has great recovery but his chin is definitely quesitonable.

 

[BGDDYKWL]

The first response hit the nail on the head. It's suspect. My gut tells me it's not very good, but time will tell.

 

[Enganacious]

Glover's tendency to get wobbled is why I don't see him beating Gus if they ever match up.

Gus won't get taken down, I'd imagine, and despite Glover's power, I'd imagine Gus would be tagging his face up pretty good.

 

[AllHailKrull**]

Great chin.

 

[servel20]

Jon Jones doesn't have enough KO power anyway

This, at least not with punches.

 

[fearoth]

It's fine as long as he doesn't get knocked out. His style means he will get hit a few times going forward.

If youre a nuthugger his chin is made of titanium and if youre not, his chin is an eggshell. Take your pick!

 

[FlameBallKid]

Who at Light Heavy has Heavier Hands then Bader ? You could say Jimmi I guess but his victories have all been injuries to his Opponent rather then pure KO's .

Shogun - Still has the power in his Knee's and Kicks but I don't think his hands are particularly heavy anymore .

Wut?

 

[Ruv]

Glover chin will hold up fine and he will finish JJ.
