    Not yet.

    If he goes on long enough though, you have to figure sheer accumulation will mean someone might topple him.

    TOS rocked him a tiny bit from memory.

    Dems whiskers have taken some pretty massive bombs...if he keeps going eventually someone will probably stop him..but he will probably just give up from age or something.

    Still one of the ATG chins Ive seen.

    I think Frank Bruno came closest to stopping him legitimately - and in truth he wasn't that close at all.

    all time great chin
     
  6. He has the best chin ever, and I feel only Vitali Klitschko would be able to crack it.

    While McCall was crying and standing in the middle of the ring, Lennox Lewis clocked him flush..and Oliver didn't seem to notice, he just kept on blubbering. the way Lennox can punch, McCall must have one of the best chins in history.

    He had all kinds of problems outside of the fight during and before training camp, multiple arrest, was having trouble with Crack abuse, was in rehab during training camp~

    McCall was not mentally prepaired to win the title again that night and it showed.

    That was pretty crazy. That sparring session told me that he did not let it all out against DLH.

    His beard is fading a bit at this point though. JC Gomez had him stunned at one point.
