magny puts those myths to rest

even though magny wasnt able to use his reach effectively against lombard, his chin and cardio put him in the position to be a future champ, i would like to see magny take 6 months off after getting rocked twice that fight not worth losing that god given ability to recover and withstand punishment.
 
I wouldnt say he has a good chin, he does have excellent recovery and a huge heart and cardio

might be true, it's tough to judge. He got dropped and rocked but not put out cold.


His chin has to be at least average - above average IMO.

if magny doesnt have a good chin who does?
magny was never out, he got wobbled but those punches would have put most people out.
 
magny vs diaz no time limit match would result in everyone falling asleep before it was over
 
People can dismiss his effort because Lombard was gassed, but what I saw was amazing. I saw a man lose one round 10-8 and win the next 10-7 before finishing the fight.

that needs to be booked nick diaz vs magny would be epic they would both not be able to read after they were done pitter pattering each other in the head.
steel heart
heart can only take you so far, its magnys chin that kept him from going out cold.
 
Magny's chin is average. It's his RECOVERY which is really great.

There's a difference between having a good chin and having good recovery.

It was only 10-7 under my own relative scoring system., the details of which I posted here, which I think is a much better scoring system.

In the scoring system actually in play, however, that round is a 10-8. There's really no justification for that being the first 10-7 in history. The only possible way you get 10-7 is by comparing it to the first round, which is not how MMA's current scoring system works.

average chins fold under hector lombards power its happen time and time again, magny never got kod then recovered he got wobbled there is a difference.
i dont see how you can say his chin is average when hes never been kod, and only gets wobbled by one of the hardest if not the hardest hitter in the welterweight division.
 
Great fight. Amazing recovery, I didn't think it was possible for Magny to come back the way it was looking.

he did get koed by mike ricci
 
There is also a myth that you can't even get rocked, because your chin will be done in your next fight.

As long as you are young and have a good chin, doesn't matter it you get finished or rocked. Magny has been either many times and it still solid if not even better than before.
 
eh tuf fight long time ago, lawler got kod by diaz doesn't mean his chin isn't good.
average chins dont take those shots.
i wasnt saying that he doesn't have a amazing chin, i concur with you. just pointing that he did get koed

cumulative brain damage, and brain recovery is not a myth

I'm talking about your chin being done after you get hurt, not that. There are some threads talking about Conor chin not being the same because he got hurt.

Well, Magny not only got hurt lots of time before but Ricci put him to sleep.

The talk about a chin being done after a war is also not true. Robbie Lawler has been in a lot of those.
