Who was closest to being 'unknockoutable'?

I was just scouring for Laporte right this second!

 

Speaking of great chins are Laporte fights with Sanchez and Chavez
worth wtaching

 

Hagler had the best chin ever

 

Fair calls. He was never massively concussed tho, as you definitely would agree. If he does get sat on his ass hard, and i mean hard, how does he react. Ali, Robinson, Leonard, Holmes, Whitaker, all showed they could get thru the severe fog and debilitating conditions and still survive or win. Could Hagler avoid like an Ali/Whitaker under this? Would or could he fight his way out like a Holmes (a saver is that Larry didn't get thru this against great opponents)? I'm not saying Hagler can't, but one could spin this and say Hagler, in some extreme ways, wasn't quite as proven. I'm sure many might question my question, but i think it's a legitimate comment.

 

How do you think Hagler would fare against Frazier ?
Or against Foreman ?

 

Hagler's customary level of physical conditioning essentially answers this question in my mind. Despite having a glass jaw, Marv's idol Floyd Patterson was never laid out cold, the way Braddock was against Louis, or Liston against Leotis Martin, or Johansson against Patterson himself. Even in his two losses to Liston, Floyd was getting up as the referee finished tolling the count. This was because Patterson always maintained a high degree of fitness. Rapid recovery is one of the payoffs of a disciplined training regimen.

 

I think it speaks volumns about Hagler that this question could even be asked.

 

Ali proved he was unknockoutable cuz it's a fact, it never happened against the biggest heavyweight hitters in history. So i don't know how you can't include him.

 

:good

 

i agree,2 tough heavies indeed

 

just 1 point,hagler never had to handle heavyweight punches.seems to me if were talking about the toughest the heavies rule unless you mean p4p

 

Because they knocked him down and hurt him real bad.

 

Lots of guys have fought past their primes and didn't get knocked out. Its not unheard of in the least bit.
