    What fighters in your opinion were chinny, but never got a loss by KO or TKO...

    Maybe Johnny Famechon. He was down numerous times via slips but some were debatable in his title winning bout with Jose Legra..and decked in both fights with Fighting Harada, and in losing the crown to Vincente Saldivar, yet he was never stopped in his career. Another candidate, certainly in his last couple of fights, which may not be fair, is Joe Calzaghe.

    Tough to call but Joe Louis was down a bunch of times.

    As you know, Joe was stopped a couple of times....however your answer may be correct, but I thought the thread title implied fighters who were on the deck fairly frequently but never suffer a tko orko loss in their careers.

    Yes that's what I meant, no losses at all by T/KO at all.:bbb

    I agree with you somewhat about Calzaghe being somewhat chinny.

    But Louis was BOTH ko and TKO


    He took the full ten count in his first lost, and the ref stop the bout in his 3rd lost.

    Juan Manuel Marquez maybe? He does not seem to have an especially solid chin, but does possess remarkable powers of recovery and grace under pressure. He goes down pretty easily, but cannot be kept down.

    DLH as a lightweight. He used to get dropped on his ass in every fight.

    Ike Quartey. Rocked and knocked down quite a few times, but always managed to survive.
