    One fluke knockout in his entire career, and you question his chin? The guy never went down before, or after that fight.

    Another case of an ESB sheep basing his entire opinion on the status quo. Think objectively.

    Not bad, but the Ruiz knockout was much more of a "flash" KO. With the McCall loss you could argue that the accumulative punches through 4 rounds lead tot he TKO.

    Against Tua, Ruiz was simply caught off guard, he wasn't expecting Tuz to charge in like that. They could fight 100 times more and I would wager that would never happen again.

    you're talking about mccall-lewis right?

    you don't think being dragged out of rehab and being forced to fight when mentally unstable had anything to do with his breakdown then?

    Well if we're talking the conditions leading into the fight, then I suppose you have a point. All i'm saying is that the KO itself was a little more earned by Lewis. Tua got **** lucky.

    lewis was bouncing punches off oliver's face and he wasn't even blinking, just crying and breaking down mentally in the middle of the ring but still lennox's punches weren't having any impact.

    ruiz got KTFO brutally.

    ruiz has got a good chin, mccall's is just on it's own freakish level.

    It was bassicly1 left hook throw and landed, that just happened to catch Ruiz, who wasn't expecting such a wild punch so early in the fight. Like I said before, they could fight 100 times and that would never happen again, it was a fluke.

    Put Joe Calzaghe on there as well if you want, but Mayweather never gets tired. Just because they have high output styles does not tell a thing about them being more conditioned than Mayweather.

    Ya, going undefeated as long as he has at the top level without ever showing signs of fatigue down the stretch does tell me quite a bit. You don't believe Mayweather has proven himself? Give me a break.

    How about "Head Butt" --- Ricky Hatton.
