If you get knocked out by a fighter like Lemeiux it's not really because you're chinny it's because he's a sicko puncher. If he catches you right he could chin anyone. Just like the sicko middleweight punchers from back in the day - Jackson, Hearns, G-Man, Benn etc.
Can't subscribe! If you get caught with a perfect shot by any decent fighter you can get chinned, and obviously GGG has fought guys with enough power and delivery, in the ams and pros. Lemieux definitely has a great punch, but I don't see him as a guy who hides his shots very well or has a lot of variety. N'dam got caught with absolutely everything Lemiuex could have hit him with and he IS chinny, yet imo he still came on stronger and won the 12th round of their fight doing some damage of his own. On the flip side.... Lemieux is not a great boxer, doesn't have a great chin, and has been stopped before by a guy who was fodder for GGG. Don't buy that he's that improved nearly enough to make this interesting myself.
