I do not think they are chinny. Power does not come from the weight.


Exactly! And because power does not come from weight, we can't automatically assume today's behemoths (Wlad, Fury) punch harder than the Lennoxes and the Mike Tysons just because they're bigger. And yet my point remains, which is that we used to see more meaningful exchanges between the heavyweights of that era (Lewis, Tyson, Vitali, etc) than we do now..... at least where Wladimir and maybe now Fury are concerned.

It's like now they're more conscious of their size and power... and more afraid of taking a decent shot on the chin. This all started with Wlad, of course, who was the King of fighting like a scared deer protecting that fragile chin of his.
