    Hagler never got clattered by Foster. That is literally the only difference between them as far as punch resistance goes.

    Bad shout. Down about 5 times, which explains why it's not a 'good shout'


    Great chin, just not GREAT.

    If you're gonna say someone or something they said isn't bright, you should just make sure that you have the correct words for the sentence.

    Jus' sayin.

    he got knocked down a fair amount though, bell, lamotta, levine and graziano off the top of my head knocked him down in his prime, like i say he had a great chin i just don't think in the history of the sport its top 20 and certainly not top 10

    Chuvalo. No contest. Not even close.

    McCall has a good argument. And let's not forget Max Baer, he should at least be in the discussion.

    Wayne McCollough, Andrade, and McCall are good mentions.

    Are you sure about this ?

    I didn't see the fight, but Chuvalo told me he'd never been knocked off his feet.

    marvin hagler i believe has the best chin, only knocked down once in his career (i believe).

    Plus chris eubank deserves a mention - he was never knocked out in his career.
