    Khan has been hurt more times so his chin appears to be worse but then I rarely recall seeing Kovalev get hit with a decent punch so maybe his chin could be terrible. I'm voting for Kovalev.

    Kovalev has a much better Chin than Khan. 98% of boxers have a better Chin than Khan. Look at the KO rates of Khan's opponents. It is embarrassing.

    No .

    Chino can BANG with either hand . His power is LEGIT .

    Hes just a poor finisher , he can seriously hurt his opponents and but he just cant put em away .

    A lot of people say hes knocks Broner out in a rematch , I disagree .

    It will be the exact same result .

    Stop right there. Savage punchers don't have to 'finish' people because they are usually stopped by the first punch they land flush. Saying someone is a 'poor finisher' isn't an excuse for them not being able to KO someone.

    Disagree .

    Foreman was a savage puncher himself , yet he had to hit his opponents with way more than 1 punch to get the job done .

    He would bring kovalevs chin up yes...but he'd be saying it was rock solid titanium plated Kevlar that's been pressurised under the earth for 1000s of years to form the strongest substance known to man.

    " We also know that he has been knocked spark out by Attoev in the amateurs with headgear on." This comment shows exactly how much you know about boxing .

    Well tbf top fighters usually don't get KO'd, especially by slow, crude fighters.
