    Foreman weathering the assaults of Ron Lyle. First time George went down I thought he was dead.

    Paul Williams VS Antonio Margarito

    Margarito likely had plaster in his gloves. Williams deserves more credit , punch stats are out of bounds

    I’m sure he broke his jaw too. Wouldn’t be surprised if the eye socket went. What an idiot after the first 20 right hands you would think to put your left hand up, guy did the same thing over an over again. I found it hard to feel sorry for someone who does that.

    However the referee and the corner should ashamed of themselves for not ending that fight by the 7th or 8th.

    I would have to give Holyfield credit against Bowe in the 10th round, how he stayed up was beyond me.

    True but Lyle also, that was a old school slugfest.

    Wladimir Klitschko vs Mariusz Wach. That was the greatest display of punch resistance I've ever seen in an ABSOLUTE sense by any boxer that Mariusz Wach showed that night. Shame that he got popped though!

    I just watched it, oh man Tyson's combination punching was off the charts. Ribalta's mouth guard was sent to outer space a few times.

    I watch a damn lot of Unstoppable Force vs Immovable Object type fights becuz I love watching courageous boxers who won't go down. Here's some more if you want to see more display of chin:

    Sugar Ray Leonard vs Marcos Geraldo
    Samuel Peter vs Wladimir Klitschko 1
    Julian Jackson vs Thomas Tate
    Roy Jones Jr. vs Jorge Castro
    Deontay Wilder vs Johann Duhaupas (highly recommended)

    You should watch Joe Louis vs Max Baer too! One million punches that Louis need just for Baer to take a knee.

    Especially that one huge shot Barkley landed which spun Duran around and had him out on his feet momentarily, but he didn't go down from.

    One of my favourite fights.

    Holmes who came up from that Shavers punch is also another good display of chin.

    Honorable mention: Pinkston Thomas.

    Took a beating in the first round from a prime Tyson and absorbed another twenty or so flush punches at the end of the fight and still tried to get up.
