    Vitali and canelo I don't see as massive punchers but very good punchers

    The others I agree with and prime Tyson and foreman

    Old Foreman had a better chin than young Foreman, bizarrely.

    Another problem for Mike was that he would gas after 5 rounds especially the second half of his career . I remember clearly in my younger days if I was rooting for his opponent in my mind I was like ' just hold for the first 5 ' :risas3: . Not David Price level gas but still fade .

    Golovkin based on what?. Wasn't he rocked against a tomato can recently?, didn't a blown up Welterweight stun him with a single shot in the first round?. Having Golovkin in the same list as the likes of Tua, Vitali, SRR is an alarming sign of serious mental illness.

    Canelo is not a massive puncher.

    I also used to find it bizarre but it makes sense when you consider the fact that he was heavier in his old days combined with being stronger mentally.
