    :patsch

    I'm sure Frank Bruno, Mike Tyson, David Tua, Vitaly Klitshcko, Evander Holyfield, Shannon Briggs, Ray Mercer and a few others are all wondering why they hit the glass-jawed Limey, Cannuck, ****** with their best shots and didn't even manage to floor him.

    Tyson didnt have any of his best shot's in him when the two met in what was nothing but a huge payday for lewis courteousy of a shot iron mike tyson..

    But even though im not a lewis fan i have to admit that he had a solid chin..

    stopped only twice against so many huge hitters aint exactly glass chin material..

    Though i doubt he had the chin to handle a mike tyson pre jail left hook.

    I don't think sweet pea was weak chinned. It wasn't granite but it wasn't terrible.

    Strange he got up from a insane flush shot from Jackson on one occasion and on another is dropped by a nothing jab. Maybe Julian ruined that chin? :think

    I wouldn't say Morrison he took some big shots from big heavyweights who were punchers like Ruddock who Tyson named as the hardest puncher he ever fought and Foreman who Holyfield called the hardest puncher he ever fought. His open defense and stamina problems exaggerated his chin IMO.

    Cooney for his size would have to be up there...

    Thing about Louis tho is he was decked and taken out multiple times by people SMALLER than him, Patterson was only taken out by Liston which speaks for itself and Ingo who might've had the hardest right hand at that weight ever. Certainly the most underrated.

    Wonderful head of hair though...
