Spoiler alert!!!!!!

And Joshua has a glass jaw. He's a big time KO waiting to happen. Everyone he's faced so far has either been old and/or out of shape, with the exception of Whyte and he rocked Joshua's world.

Glass jaw or not, he's still the best heavyweight prospect (undefeated, Olympic gold medal) we've had in a long time. It's looking like Joseph Parker is next so we're about to find out just how good he is.

I agree he hasn't fought anyone yet except for Whyte but he took 2 good shots from Whyte, got stunned, quickly recovered and proceeded to beat the piss out of Whyte. From this you've determined he has a glass jaw. Really? This guy is dangerous, can fight, can punch, and will be champion.

He got KTFO by Whyte in the amateurs. And the first time he got hit solid as a pro, he was in la la land.

That's how I know he has a glass jaw.

He's certainly a talented fighter and can end the fight at any moment with his punching power, but the problem is he hasn't proven he can take a clean punch. He's either gonna knock out his opponent or get knocked out.

No he did not. That's a complete falsehood.

Knocked down, I mean. I'm telling you, he has an extremely suspect chin.

Said on here before the Whyte fight the winner would be the next great heavyweight champion

When David Haye beats Shannon Briggs there will be a "battle of Britain"

So he has never been knocked out yet you say he has a glass jaw? What great fighter in the history of the world in any combat sport hasn't been knocked down and wobbled at one point?

He's only had 17 fights and all but one were bums. And the one that wasn't a bum rocked his world the first time he landed a clean shot. He's playing it safe right now and I think that's why. You know who else has a suspect chin? Wilder. He's done the chicken dance more than once after getting hit clean.

And yeah, all fighters are wobbled/hurt at some point. But it's usually against other elite fighters, not dudes you fight on the way up.

Wilder is fun to watch but with his wide open style it's a matter of time before he gets KOed.

The guy leaves himself wide open on most punches he throws and that's why neither have fought anyone of merit yet.

Joshua and wilders camps both are taking small steps with their cash cows and haven't tested either yet.

Both have a bit to go before you should be getting pumped up for greatness
