    My sister named her cat Richard Dunn after watching the Dunn vs Ali fight in 1976, the cat would fall a lot, Lol.

    Bruce Seldon.

    He was once dropped by a single right hand from Tony Tubbs

    Bonecrusher and Witherspoon both felled him for the full count.

    Lewis and Tyson had him out on his feet

    Seldon had no chin whatsoever.

    Are we including champions AND challengers in the weakest chins in a heavyweight title fight?

    With 12 losses, 11 by knockout, he would certainly qualify.

    It's funny, you always hear these stories about what a feared puncher Roy "Tiger" Williams was, but Dunn went the distance with him and won.

    Maybe, he did fall apart from one punch by Lewis though, but then again Lewis was a banger, but he also fell apart from one punch v Jumbo Cummings, and was just saved by the bell in that bout.

    In his prime he was only knocked out by Schmeling.

    Douglas quit v Holy, his head was clear while he was on the floor, he even checked his glove for blood while lying down on the job, the uppercut Tyson floored him with hurt him far worse.

    Bruno's chin was fine, his survival skills when hurt left something to be desired.

    Maybe one of the WBO challengers from the 90s? Either in Hides reign(s) or Morrisons.
