Vitali has a very good chin. He's never been down and has always taken a good punch. It's interesting that he has a good chin while his brother Wladimir doesn't, something to do with genetics in either the mother or father's side on that one.
You must not watch much boxing. Ever hear of Lennox Lewis and Corrie Sanders? Both got flush shots on Klitschko. He stayed up.
The ref called it a slip... in any case, look what happened to Sanders after that. VK took a shot that was the closest ever to knocking him down (or did knock him down, though the ref disagrees, and he is the guy who makes that decision), and he came back and beat the man senseless.
what exactly do you guys want from him to prove his chin.... sanders landed the type of punches that puts most guys down and vitali took them, same with lewis.... the guys got a beard, its not hard to see.
So Lewis was only able to hit him with one heavy shot, then? What caused the multiple cuts, a couple of pawing jabs to the eye socket and mouth? :think
