    All were very good/ great punchers
    Each one only pissed off Marvin Hagler when they landed cleanly, with Full force on him.

    Holmes-Ali.

    No, Holmes wasn't a great puncher, but he was no Howard Davis Jr, either. Pretty sure Ali got caught flush more times in that fight than in his entire pro career, and he walked away.

    I really don't understand your picks

    Ribalta was eventually ground down to a ko defeat

    Holmes collapsed as if shot. His recuperative powers allowed him to survive after his chin failed.

    To me a better example would be where a guy gets hit repeatedly and nothing happens

    Saad v. Marvin Johnson Ii
    Mustafa Hamsho v. Hagler I
    Dwight Pratchett v. JC Chavez
    Cobb v. Shavers
    Bonecrusher v. Tyson

    Wayne McCullough vs anyone but in particular Erik Morales. He ate repeated flush shots from a good puncher and excellent boxer and didn’t blink.

    Foreman vs Holyfield. Evander landed about 15 flush head shots, big George stumbled a bit, recovered about half a second later and stood in his corner between rounds not even dazed. Incredible chin.
