Is it safe to say Wladimir got the worst chin of the top 10 heavyweights?

Yea, liver shots can really be terrible.
Even if you can still think, your legs will simply say "no **** you"

In a highlight video I saw Tommy Morisson livershot some poor guy.

Really terrifying.

 

So then I must assume two possible things... Either A) You believe Johnson n Jeffries among many others were lying about the man's power or B) You must think Wlad had a superior chin to Jeffries or Johnson (care to back up that stance if so?)

 

Bollox. Sanders put those same shots on Rahman and he came back to knock him out.

 

I think talking about hardest hitters is meaningless.

Lots of guys have hit really, really hard.

If you don't factor in approach and finishing ability, what purpose does it serve? Why are we debating who can generate the most raw force? A. We're probably wrong, B. It's like looking at the world's strongest man competition and going, "Yeah, but who is the best ARM WRESTLER amongst them? That will really tell us what we need to know."

You can't talk about Joe Louis' power without talking about his immaculate method of delivering it. You can't talk about Shavers without pointing out it often didn't do what he needed it to do. You can't discuss Foreman's without his savage two-fisted deliveries, as George was NOT a tremendous one punch destroyer in the mold of an Earnie Shavers, but he was a killer in there.

 

One got knocked out by a middleweight the other is Rahman.

 

Do you REALLY believe Johnson was truly hurt or KD by that punch? I mean really you do? I think that was about a big a stage KD as there could've been.. for God's sake he was falling down before the punch. If it wasn't staged that had everything to do with Johnson being off balance and nothing to do with his chin. Yet, you didn't mention Jeffries who also made the claim and has a granite chin... So I'm guessing you believe Wlad chin is superior to that of Wlad's?

So if Joe hit Wlad flush... it's your assertion that Wlad would.. what.. just shrug it off as if it was nothing?

 

He'd probably get incredibly uncomfortable and start making mistakes. It would be the follow up that mattered.
