    Baer knocks out leapso and pianetta early

    Baer vs Wach is a good fight. Wach can hit and had an iron chin.

    With modern training and nutrition, Baer would be so large he may miss seeing any of these guys. Perhaps, he later discovers them and s****es them from his shoe.

    Yeah he might go to 8 foot! Any guy who can break the neck of a bull MOIDERS Wach.

    Baer beats them all. He knocks out Pianeta and Leapai, and decisions Wach

    Apart from Wlad and Fields at a lower level, has he met any big punchers? Wach landed on significant shot one Wlad and had him visibly disconcerted.

    Really? Because I thought Wlad handled it fine. He wasn't on shaky legs, he wasn't glassy eyes, your exaggerating here. Wlad was fine. By the way, Wach could really crack with that right hand, he's had a lot of one punch knockouts.

    Wach taking flush punches from one of the greatest punchers of all time in Wlad is enough for me to rate his chin high

    I see Wach as a lumbering oaf with no skill, no speed , no defence , no footwork, and only a right hand that
    he sends post cards with. All his wins are over journeymen level opponents.

    Very solid, but not at the McCall-Chuvalo level. He hasn't fought the level of competition for the length of time those guys fought them to attain that kind of ranking.

    In short, he could have a "granite" chin, but he hasn't proven it at the level necessary to make that assessment.

    Oh, and he wouldn't have been a contender in any other era!
