No, anybody can get knocked out. That's not it.

It's getting 1-punch KO'd that really separates Lewis from the pack. Sure, there are plenty of bums who get 1-punch KO'd all the time (Fraudley Harrison), but not many 'all-timers' who have twice been 1-punch KO'd in their prime. That's where the china chin comes in. And the same goes for RJJ (although some would argue he was no longer in his prime when he got twice 1-punch KO'd).

Lewis was a very good champion, once Manny Steward taught him how to hide his chin and clinch. Before that, he was a 1-punch KO loss waiting to happen. Fortunately for him, most of the guys he fought before getting with Steward couldn't take his punches, so they never got to land anything good of their own on Sir Glass Chin. When they did (Briggs, Bruno), they shook Lewis. It wasn't the hardest thing in the world to do.

Oh, and McCall's trainer when he KO'd Lewis?

Manny Steward.

Plenty of guys landed plenty of big shots before and after steward, you need to watch some of his fights. Watch this video and weep my friend.

Thanks! That one made the 'favorites' list.

I wonder why someone felt they needed to make a "Lennox Lewis had an iron chin" video. LOL!!! :bbb

because of haters like you, a bit foolish I agree, but still its great to watch the haters responses even though boxing fans are the worst for bias.
