    This is so dumb. Povetkin punches nothing like he used to and fury never gets hit flush because he is to busy running away. In my mind the worst fighter the world has ever seen on tv.

    You either love Povetkin or your drunk.

    You are wrong about Tex Cobb. Dee Collier knocked him out in the first round. Eddie Greg also knocked him down. But you are right on Hughie Fury.

    He really does have a decent chin, I have been impressed at what he has taken so far from some decent punchers.

    There’s nothing wrong in stating that Hughie has a good chin.
    Asking is it the best in heavyweight history though ffs.

    He has good feet so even if you land on him he's going to be moving sideways or back, and Pov just doesn't have the snap of a few years ago. Good chin for sure but other aspects of his game are lacking.

    Parker and Pulev ain't known for their punching power

    Guess Ruiz has super duper, adamantium, reinforced with kevlar and carbon fibre chin

    Since Ruiz Jr soaked up way more clean, flush shots against Parker than Hughie who was running around the ring looking for the exit sign.

    Watch the two or three right hands that parker lands. They arent too shabby and Hury seemingly handles them ok. Solid chin id say

    lol Parker came within a whisker of sparking your boy Whyte and he 100% would've had the ref not allowed Whyte to foul the Jesus out of him all night and sap his energy reserves.

    Pulev has scored more JTFO KOs than any other HW in history lol

    A Povetkin left or right hook would spark Obese Squad Ruiz out cold.

    A puny 218lb Hughie took savage right hand bombs launched from the bowels of hell from a 260lb + Samuel Peter.
