Rate Kabayel’s chin on a scale from 1-10

So what ? The '88 version of mike tyson beats every current heavyweight comfortably .

 

Against a better opponent with better finishing abilities it may not work out quite the same.

Also Kabayel was going down and the referee kind of saved him from that barrage with a standing 8 count kind of like the Usyk/Fury 1 situation.

Maybe you can give Kabayel the benefit of the doubt since Smakici has a high KO ratio even if it is against complete nobodies.

But a poster in this thread suggested Kabayel's chin was a 9 and I don't think I'd rate his chin that high based on his career so far.

 

Question is : who,s chin would be a 10 for reference ?

 

I've no idea what Mike Tyson has to do with this thread. But no chance does he beat Oleksandr Usyk 'comfortably', I doubt he'd win for a start.

''88 Tyson'' lol Never known a guys prime be so short. C/D Level Buster Douglas just months later destroyed him.

 

Nah , i just commented because mike was mentioned. That said you must be really childish if you doubt for a second that pre prison prime mike would not just beat but annihilate usyk . The same is true for every other guy currently active .

But its indeed not the theme

 

That sounds childish what you wrote, ironically. The fact you can't even cope with someone else's opinion on a forum.

And yes I think Usyk would defeat the man who lost to Buster ****ing Douglas. Usyk is a far more complete all rounder.

Tyson only looked great crushing cans. His best wins are grandads and a light heavyweight. He lost every single fight when he faced elite competition. And Usyk is as elite as it gets, he's completed the entire boxing game.

Usyk, Holyfield, Lewis, Ali, Louis, Marciano, Vitali (and a few others) all defeat any version of Tyson. He's not this mythical, unbeatable monster you claim he is. As seen by his many losses.

 

He was never really hit by Big Mac, and the only clean power punch landed by Zhang put him on his arse, though he recovered very well.

I would say his chin is sturdy and solid, but likely not a Hrgovic level chin as Hrgovic took multiple power punches from Zhang and even weirdly looked away and let him have at it at times, and did not even look phased. (The flash knockdown was behind the head, not the chin, so I’m not counting that from a chin perspective.)

Hrgovic and Miller are likely the only two guys at around world level who have something close to iron jaws.

 

It looks pretty sturdy to me. He got hurt once and dropped, and the Zhang KD didn't look like it hurt him too much. But he can be hurt, and he can be dropped. Judging by the first KD he suffered, it seems the best way to get him out is with accumulation rather than looking for a perfect shot. Even Zhang's big bang attack couldn't finish him. His recovering abilities just seem too good for just one shot.
The problem is, a lot of heavyweights have horrible stamina and can't throw a combo without their hearts bursting, so it's a tall order. Usyk vs Kabayel would be kino.
