Joe wasn't the champ yet in 1935.
Don't all defensive masters with great chins pretty much fit into this category? Many of my choices are already named so I'll mention Jersey Joe...

Braddock was smart and durable but Max is too good for him and wins a UD. Not impossible that Schmeling knocks him out but Jim had a granite chin...
