Good one.... also, another Kostya victim whos been in with everybody, Ben Tackie.
What surprises me about Tszyu was that he was a massive puncher, yet weak chinned Roger Mayweather went the full 12 rounds with him.

He would be in my All Time list his opposition was amazing.
Kostya Tszyu
Azumah Nelson
John John Molina
Salvador Sanchez
Julio Cesar Chavez
Wilfredo Gomez
Ruben Castillo
Eusebio Pedroza
Rocky Lockridge
Barry McGuigan
And the only time he was stopped was when his corner pulled him out while he was on his stool. Juan La Porte has one of the most underrated chins in boxing history IMO.
Top notch Ice,ZAck Padilla put him out with volume and work rate as much as anything.Laporte last fight.All out guy and now an all around "ambassador" type for the sport.
I think its a credit to Laportes chin that he went 10 with a young Kostya even tho he was obviously well past his use by date.
No doubt,Kostya landed some bombs on him,Those seering rights,...............Bramble as well.Bramble was thrashed against Huge power house Edwin Rosario like Ive never seen waaaay back but has always shown solid chin.Kostya dropped him early but Ras-I other wise held up.

Yeh ICE,You got me thinking about that a couple of weeks ago with the Mention of Mayweather Vs, Chavez 1 &2 (pretty sure it was u?).Mayweather always struck me as one of those "He'll get you or you get him " Fighters.Chin made of popscicle sticks and sand but a Tremendous right hand that could effect the best of chins.That was a suprise Kostya couldn't dent him badly.I expected Roger to go relive Pineda or chavez meltdowns.Those old legs held up and He had his moments.
Something about that Kostya fight stands out but I cannot place it Have to dig it up again.

just to name a couple
EDIT: to clarify, i'm not saying that Mosley and Pavlik should be at the top of their divisions.. those were just two names off of the top of my head that should at least be considered.
IMO Miranda's power is overrated as a one punch ko artist. Taylor couldn't even ko a 147 titlist with a solid shot and rocked Pavlik more than his previous three opponents who all fight naturally under 160 pounds, Pavlik IMO has a weak chin if anything.
I guess Abraham is weak boned then. Pavlik has a great chin IMO, it kept him going after getting nailed multiple times by big punchers. Most fighters would love to have a "weak" chin like that.

Aren't we talking about Chins?
Re: The Best Chins In Each Divison
The guy is saying they both stopped him
Trinidad had to go the body, however Oscar was able to hurt Mayorga with head shots.

The first KD in the 1st round Oscar caught Mayorga out of balance with a perct hook. but through the whole fight Oscar as well as Tito they got him with great punches and the guy kept coming for more it was crazy
