Same its an accumulative effect because he gets caught a lot out of step and out of position. If anything, he showed and has shown remarkable punch resistance. I remember when people used to say the same thing about Tito and that was also a head scratcher. Knockdowns are often said to be signs of having a bad chin and yet in many cases it has nothing to do with chin. Lewis also while he stood there and took bombs by the biggest puncher in the sport. Somehow the knockouts by Oliver and Rahman equated to a bad chin when both shots would have most likely ko'd Chuvalo and quite possibly a large four legged animal.
