    Joseph Parker. He got up from Whyte, he could get up from Shavers.

    Ali
    90s Foreman (who probably wouldn't have gotten knocked down but instead more rocked than by anyone)
    ...I think 70s George might have been knocked out.
    Chuvalo
    (prime) Holyfield
    It's possible Cobb would have taken the shot (he didn't get hit with anything like that in his own fight with Shavers, though banged hard several times nothing on that level).

    But I think you might agree: he would get up.

    The uppercut Bowe hit Holy with in the 10th round of I was nearly as hard as anything Shavers ever threw, and Holy didn't go down.

    Old foreman
    Holyfield
    chuvalo
    Shannon Briggs (possibly)

    I agree with most of these with the exception of Briggs, Chuvalo and McCall.
    The latter two because the weren't going down unless hit by an actual truck.

    True. A chin like McCall’s breaks the laws of physics

    I'm convinced he's a direct descendant of the easter island heads.
