George had a good chin remember he took about 20 unanswered blows from Holyfield.

But remember Holyfield wasnt what you would call a power puncher at heavyweight. I think it was more his work rate and accumulation that did the damage for him.

Oh no doubt, not saying he couldnt punch but I wouldnt class him as a pure power puncher like tyson. He didnt often knock guys out cold with one punch was more my point.

My point was even being over 40 years old he could still take the many unanswered blows of an undefeated prime heavyweight like Holyfield.
