    For all this talk of “Ingo/Patterson lose because of their chins lolz”, Baer has went the distance or even lost to fighters with less than stellar chins. An iron chin definitely wasn’t a requirement to beat him, which again goes back to his relative inability to put his power to use at world-class level.

    Baer was much more durable, far stronger and Ingo was a pro man's Schmeling ...
