    Lewis does. I rate him as having about an average chin and his two one-punch KO's simply came from being reckless and getting caught by two good punchers.

    Wlad on the other hand has a prety glassy chin. Basically every good shot he's ever been hit with he's been knocked down by. I'm prety sure that good punches that Lewis has stood up to in the past would floor Wlad.

    okay letz all admit that itz impossible to know without a doubt who really had the BETTER-CHIN due to infinite factorz that are very tricky to JUDGE PERFECTLY FAIRLY

    that said, i would confidently have no hesitation stating that lewis had the BETTER-CHIN of the two of them hands down

    Lewis

    The punch that Rahman landed would have knocked Chuvalo out. Human physiology has its limits.

    The problem with this post is that it is biased right off the bat.

    I wouldn't consider either one of the 2 fighters
    as having a better chin. Neither have A+ chins. Both have lost by TKO/KO.

    One thing to consider.
    I feel that in Wlads last 2 loses he was suffering from Hepatitis C. If you watch Hollyfield's fights during the time he suffered from this STD you will see that he is fine then inexplicably exhausted. Same thing for Wlad. He was AOk then slumped like the he ran out of gas. His eyes were clear and his legs werent wobbly. Like Hollyfield.
    Lewis on the other hand just got to
    cocky and thought Rahman was nothing.

    None of thier loses came from a single
    punch. Both have gotten up from knock downs to win.

    Funny thing.
    If Wlad had fought Lewis instead of his brother I would have bet on him to win by UD. He is one of the best boxers in the sport. But since he is a heavy weight people don't respect that fact.

    With a fight like this past Saturday.
    Where you controlled a guy so dominately. You should be fighting more often. Least 4 times a years. Not like you got hurt and need to recover.
    But that isn't how money works it...

    You get hit by a haymaker in africa by a hungry fighter that bench presses 5 #45 plates on each side of the bar and your going to hell just as quick
