    Yes he did. But I've never believed Shavers could hit harder than Liston or Foreman.

    He's out of his damn mind. I'll edit a quick video of Ali taking flush shots. Hopefully it'll convince him, if that still couldn't do it... I don't know what will

    I'm waiting for Zakman's thread "Ali had a glass jaw".

    Foreman Vs Frazier 1 ... what is a chin.
    Who would endure that?
    Frazier got up 6 times, and didn't count to 10.
    So I would always put Frazier's chin above Foreman's chin.
    So if Foreman goes to the top 10, Frazier should also be in the top 10, but ahead of Foreman.

    Heart v chin.

    Frazier had one of the biggest hearts ever. You could hurt him (chin) but you couldn’t break him (heart).

    I completely agree with this; 101%.

    But the heart can't help you not go to the realm of dreams, from such punches and knockdowns (and not once, but 6 times).
    Chin...

    I agree with this it's kind of like Marquez in a way, his chin isn't granite he's been floored quite a few times. But he's never been stopped due to his amazing heart, many fighters would of gave up after 3rd knockdown vs Pacquiao with a broken nose, but Marquez like a true warrior carried on and almost comeback to win.

    Juan Laporte stood up to Sal Sanchez, Wilfredo Gomez (at feather, but still), JC Chavez and Kostya Tszyu among several other notables.

    Any list for me starts with him.

    Hector Camacho isn’t a bad shout to crack this 10, either.
