    The Baby Faced Assassin didn't. Ali didn't. Neither did Valuev.

    Small head in proportion to their body yes....

    David Price is a classic.

    No it's exact opposite. The chiseled faced guys are more likely to cut up. Arturo Gatti was cut from steel. Same with guys like Morales, Kessler, Linares. These guys are prone to cut and bruise more because they have sharper facial features. It's tough having cheekbones close to the eye or having a strong brow in boxing. You don't want cuts close to the eye.

    there is no formula to having a good chin
    baby faced/hard faced/old faced / makes no difference

    golovkin looks like average man in the street great chin
    an old trialhorse i liked peter buckley looked like a strong wind would knock him over / 300 fights had a chin of iron
    marvin hagler lanterned jawed great chin

    just like punchers / huge muscles and no power and yet colin jones / who never had any muscle could hit a ton if he could land
