    By a Tua right hand. Had Tua knocked anybody out with his right? Where heavyweight champions are concerned, I can't think of a worse chin than Moorer. He's at that bottom tier when chins are discussed. If not glass than it's pretty close.

    Well he ate enough Foreman right hands to know he was far from glass chinned.

    Did Ruiz have a glass chin too then??

    Moorer did not eat enough Foreman right hands. He ate 2, one that set up the KO and the KO. Did Ruiz get sparked by a Tua right hand?

    Go watch the fight and you'll see Foreman was landing that right pretty often, did Ruiz have a glass chin??

    Bean could whack, no question. However, the low quality of his selected opponents tells me he was not confident enough in his one and only asset to test it against better class opponents.

    I'm not talking about class of opponents or who was the better fighter, I'm talking about pure one punch power.

    Fairplay, Butterbean could have been very handy I feel if he got into shape.
