Are the most durable heavyweights through history large heavyweights?

These guys were all pretty durable and Cobb was tested by the likes of Shavers but Randall was also pretty easy to hit so to his credit he took em well but there have been quite a few smaller guys that fought some bangers and took quite a bit of punishment

5"9 George"Scrap Iron"Johnson was in there with some real bangers of the late 60'and 70's but was a strong little fireplug

Marion Wilson was a little over 6" but was durable and rugged

5"11 Everett"Big Foot Martin pretty durable

5"11 Sherman"the Tank" Williams tough guy ad it was he that staggered the 6"7 young contender Robert Helinius in there recent fight

5"7 Dwight Quawi took some of Big Georges best and fought pretty well against Spinks and Holyfield etc.

 

McCall was large for the 90's. just not gianatic
Cobb was quite large for the 80's
Chuvalo was only 6' but well over 210 or so of solid muscle. That was good sized for the 70's
Us was a block of granite but Max Baer was pretty large and had a terrific chin.

Perhaps you should phrase your question more accurate to the point you are trying to ask which is if fighters carry their punch up in weight which history proves to be rare and multifaceted.

 

These are a gaggle of paid survivors not guys trying to win. Guys like Scrap Iron, Marion and Bigfoot are PAID LOSERS.

How corrupt and intellectually dishonest is this board that these non-entities are dragged out as proof of durability in a contest when then they very rarely tried to win a contest? We are supposed to be speaking of elite heavies here not trailhorses.

And having rewatched the Foreman Qawi (how it is really spelled) contest last weekend, it was nothing more than the over-celebrated sparks of a tiny fighter against the conflagration of the more talented, more suited for the division fighter. I might have given a single round to Qawi before the inevitable conclusion.
