    Bob Fitzsimmons, depending upon how you feel about the Hall loss, could have a case for being p4p #1 in both chin and power. Extraordinary.

    P4P Juan Laporte, McCullough, LaMotta, Hagler and Toney given he's never been stopped from Middle all the way up to Heavy.

    Edit: Also add Manuel Ortiz, Keed Gavilan, Greb and although he's been decked a number of times Britton.

    McCullough's chin is over8ed . If it was all that then he would have walked Hamed down but he fought wearily with spurts of measured aggression .

    It was very good , just not a candid8 4 AT P4P .

    overall McCall's chin was de best and p4p it is between Toney , McCall , LaPorte , Lujan (whose defense was also very gud) and very much possibly some1 else , just not McCullough , Chuvalo or Ali .

    Regarding Hagler 1 has 2 question his quality of opposition which i think was far from gr8 in terms of AT 160lbs h2h .

    He went the distance with both Hamed and Morales, theres not many that can brag that. I think his chin is certified

    I never argued against his chin's being certified , just that it is not certified enough 2b considered de best ever .

    Tex Cobb
    McCall
    Eurobum bread hustler Mavrovic.

    McCall probably the best tested of those three.
    Mavrovic "ate" clean shots from Lewis and didn't go down

    Ben Tackie, Juan Laporte, and Gerry Penalosa all deserve mentions.

    The amount of flush, full gong power shots Tackie took from Tsyu without backing up, wobbling or going down was downright scary.

    That's how I feel. The man just walked through everything.

    A great defense helped him, though.
