    Junior Jones deserves a mention. He is a pure banger like some of the guy mentioned here but he had SICK power at his best and he definitely fits the definition of chinny.

    But the thing is he wasn't really a banger at heavyweight..his ko of Botha was a most laborious affair..compared to how Lennox Lewis and Mike tyson finished off Botha.

    Yeah but Moorer brought his pop up to heavyweight. I think he could bang pretty hard at heavy. but i guess he was more of a technician.


    Nahh... Guy always got up from the canvas. Maybe at heavy. But even then he rarely got KO'd. just floored a lot. makes me think he has a better chin then he was given credit for

    Gotta disagree on this one man, Moorer could really crack.

    Ask Cooper, or Stewart. Or Jirov.

    Anyway, I like watching Haye fight...one of my favorites at the moment.

    I liked Norris, he could get reckless but was very exciting to watch overall and had good pop.

    Hearns' durability gets downplayed way too much but he was always looking for a scrap when possible and is one of my favorite fighters to watch. Not in the Hagler/Duran/Ezzard/Hopkins(my favs) but right below them.

    Except he really was a natural light heavyweight, was old/past it by the time he got stopped, and he just was rarely clean knocked out.
