    He was 41 when he stopped Charr. Lets see Fury beat any young guys when he is old.

    Learned to box in Canada and had to have been a Canadian citizen to represent them in the Olympics.

    Well firstly he was confused regarding his nationality. So what standard are we judging his mandibular fortitude by here? Obviously it's going to be a much harsher one if we're judging him by British standards because what we consider glass is often considered iron by the vast majority of the rest of the world.

    Not glass maybe, but definitely below average for a 'great'. Weak-chinned for his size absolutely.

    Vitali wasn't a big puncher for his size, that's why using him to prove Lewis' chin credentials is flimsy.
    Watch Vitali punch Sanders flush in the face for over half a fight and still not KD him, watch him punch Arreola flush in the face for almost a full fight and still not KD him, watch him punch Briggs flush in the face for a whole fight and still not KD him.
    How many flush shots does he need to even get a TKO?
    It's ridiculous how little power he had for his size.

    Lewis HIMSELF even called Vitali an attrition puncher on air during a fight commentary.

    There is no way Lewis takes the shots Fury did from Wilder (not just RH's btw, numerous LHs too). There is no way Lewis takes the shots Wlad did from Joshua (Wlad was still upright at the end). There is no way Lewis takes the shots Wilder did from Fury in the second and third fights and lasts that long.

    Lewis is weak-chinned for a SHW, absolutely.

    No, but it wasn’t granite.

    Rahman hit Holyfield with a hellacious right hand when they fought, Holyfield took it really well.

    Lewis took a bigger right hand and was in la la land.

    That’s my evidence.

    Not exactly glass as he was dropped twice only and that is only one more time than the steel-jawed Salvador Sanchez. But suspect, I'd say. We could say he was the Joe Louis of the 90s in that respect.

    I feel sooo embarrassed.
    I'd say that it's the blind Vitali fans that have been embarrassing themselves for decades. It's quite shameful.
