    That literally no or 99.8% of chins in boxing history would have crumped under.

    For me, Wladimir Klitschko against Ray Mercer comes to mind. An absolute slaughter where Wladimir put together pin point perfect combinations again and again and again against Mercer. Incredibly brutal fight.

    Dempsey/Willard comes to mind as well.

    Except he did take it! :p

    Always found it funny that Jackson beat him into far, FAR worse shape then Jones did.

    I think the Lockridge/Barry Micheal fight was a brutal one sided ass kicking. Micheal ended up with a broken nose and smashed eardrum.

    He was trying to decapitate LaPorte in their shootout. Shame about LaPorte's ATG chin and him connecting first huh? :lol:

    Cobb/Holmes...had it been any other HW at the time, or possibly in history, nobody could have taken the beating that Cobb did
