    I think that Johnson's chin was pretty darn good to be honest.

    He went fifteen years without sustaining a knockout at world level, while fighting a ridiculous number of elite fighters.

    He arguably fought more punchers than any heavyweight champion before the 1970s.

    If Ring Magazine had ranked fighters back then, I think that the data would have made for very interesting reading!

    Ketchell did drop him, but the film clearly shows that the punch hit Johnson's ear.

    It was basically a balance issue.

    I don't really care who stopped Johnson back when he was living off kitchen scraps.

    I think that it clipped the nerve bundle under Johnson's ear, and he wend down.

    Not an issue in terms of his chin IMHO.

    Fergy is a man in his 40s on this website who adores big, strong tough guys. He adores Mike Tyson and sometimes he gets an idea for a Tyson thread but thinks it will be so qu33r that it may effect his reputation so he makes new accounts to leave the thread.
