    Joe Louis in 1935 met Paolino Uzcudun 2 months after Louis destroyed the concrete chinned Max Baer...Uzcudun was the George Chuvalo of his era ,a bullish man who "couldn't be kod ". Well in the 4th round Louis unloaded a right hand on
    Paolino's jaw that drove his front teeth and his mouthpiece out and rendered the
    powerful Basque helpless...Anyone can get kod if hit on the button....And to think that an Ali could withstand the devasting combinations of a Joe Louis in his prime is foolish...
    Ali had a good chin but no one who ever lived could survive a Joe Louis attack once he
    fuzzied your mind...His record proves that...

    Flop job by Mercer, it was a rabbit/near rabbit punch and he was looking to milk it for a DQ win. Didn't work out that however. :lol:

    Iron Chinned fighters don't get KOed. :nono

    That is what makes them Iron Chinned Warriors. Fighters like LaMotta, Hagler, George Chuvalo, Vitali Klitschko, Floyd Mayweather, etc.

    You can have a damn good Chin and get KOed no shame in that. But, a real Iron Chinned fighter doesn't get KOed. Ever. That is what separates them from the rest.

    You put Floyd's chin up there with Hagler's, Chuvalo's or LaMotta's?

    Randy Cobb got nailed by Dee Collier in the first, probably just going through the motions
    at this stage and ripe for a sudden ambush.
    '
    Sonny Liston was creaking badly through age when Leotis Martin ended his successful post Ali Run.

    Pretty sure Cobb admitted that the Collier fight wasn't on the up and up.

    Rocky Lockridge got cold****ed by Juan LaPorte, but I guess that may not make it.
