Best chin ever?

Six fights out of his career doesn't account for everything. Not too mention, Ray isn't really the hardest hitter during that era either (a hard hitter, not the hardest). I don't understand where you're coming from anymore. There are men that survived against Ray, and yes six times is a lot, but that doesn't automatically qualify you as the best.

You're too busy looking for a one punch KO against me. You're gonna have to take some research and a real hard angled approach.

 

Yeah, you'd have to hit that guy with a bus before he'd go down. Also, Cobb has the distinction of fighting in a match where both fighters tested positive for cocaine. Don't see that every day.

 

ALI - that left hook frazier hit him with in their first fight.......and ALI got up in 3 seconds. I bet 90% of heavy weights would have to be stretchered out of the ring

 

hagler deffnately, but i havent seen much of toney. has he ever been caught with a good punch flush? is so do you know who did it?

 

Eubank deserves a mention in these threads.

 

For me it has to be Marvin Hagler. The two guys he fought in 1985 (Hearns) and 1986 (Mugabi) were two of the hardest punching middleweights in the last 20 years. With Hearns he was rocked and wobbled slightly but did not go down, and with Mugabi he was not even rocked. Both times he was hit with uppercuts and then hooks and crosses. and he did not go down. Only Roldan knocked him down when he pulled him down.

 

I think Toney is a case more that he was not caught flush. He has such good head and shoulder movement.

 

Sorry but I have to say it, Antonio Margarito!!!!!!!!!


:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

It is George Chuvalo end of discussion. LaMotta is up there also.

 

Of the fighters that I've seen...

Toney, Mcullough and Holyfield come to mind.

I say Holyfield because, Lewis landed this awsome uppercut on him, and Holy didn't even blink. Whereas most fighters would have been counting z's.

 

THE Bronx bull without doubt Lamotta:good

The man had a chin of iron he had about 150-200 fights and was only knocked down, once in his career:hat
Hagler, Toney, forgetaboutit, those guy's didn't have that many fights, maybe only half that...

 

:-( Holyfield was also KO'D by Bowe, and Toney...
And was falling all over the ring against club fighter Bert Cooper..
Holy had a better Heart than Chin..

 

LaMotta took like a 20 punch combination with each punch being flush and did not go down against Robinson. LaMotta was in over 100 fights and only down once. His Chin is about as Iron as it gets.

 

I think the thread is more about who could take a punch best, not who had the longest career. If you think LaMotta could take the best punch then fair enough, but whether he had 80 fights or 200 fights or 350 fights is irrelevant. A fighter could prove to have an amazing chin in 40 fights as it is what happens in the fights that is important, not the number of them. Hector Camacho was never stopped in 80 fights, whereas Antonio Margarito has been stopped and he's had under 50 fights. Does Camacho therefore have a better chin?? That would be no.

 

Eubank had a granite chin.
