    Derry Mathews? How many times did Choi banjo him in the first fight and he kept trying.

    Brilliant shout!

    The first Bassa fight was amazing, and if only it had been a 12 rounder, like the rematch...

    He survived the odd scare against the then unknown Baby Jake.

    Then we had the two Blanco fights.

    Robbed blind in the rematch, and perhaps a little lucky in the first, but in both showed a ton of heart, rising from seemingly numerous knockdowns.

    Khan is definitely still chinny but I agree, he's got a great heart.

    does chinny just refer to getting put down? Howabout staggered and wobbled easily?

    Tommy Morrison.

    The Joe Hipp fight is the most famous examples (broken hand and broken jaw) but he also came back from bad moments and knockdowns to beat Carl Williams, Razor Ruddock and scrape the draw with Puritty.

    Morrison showed a lot of heart against Lewis too. He was really put through the ringer in that one.

    Most fighters who got hit by Maidana shots in the Khan fight, it would have had the same effect on them and they wouldn't have been accused of being chinny.

    Don't like the phrase chinny, but Herbie Hide.

    He was up and down against Bowe and even when poleaxed against Vitali he was trying to get up

    agree with all this,

    Scrap Iron Ryan was great, but did have shocker of a chin, but brave as F**k
