He is an a great fighter but his chin always does him in. Lets brainstorm and come up with ideas.
 
Luke has a bad chin is a myth blown out of proportion, he has bad defense in the pocket, but thats it
 
His chin is average. If it were as bad as people make out, Branch would have KO'd him with the shots that he was able to land.

The issue is that his defense is horrible. There's also a problem with his timing. He's really fast, but he throws everything at the exact same speed, so it's easy for guys to predict his rhythm and land.

Bisping dropped Silva multiple times and absolutely mutilated Cung Le's face. He improved his technique as his career progressed and has decent pop if he sits down on shots.
 
he needs to keep his hands up he doesn't protect his chin. His hands are always low. End thread

Silva used to have a chin, not anymore.

It's diminished, but it's not glass.

Brunson, who has power despite his horrible technique, didn't drop him in spite of the fact that he landed several times.
 
Buy him one of these?

Not standing in punching range the whole time.
 
Just get him to keep his hands up and tuck his chin.
 
Don't have him fight anybody in the top 5 and his chin should be protected.

I noticed that many MMA fighters do that. I believe it is because of the takedown problem.
