I think youy yourself raised the most important counterpoint there.
Patterson was the most knocked down heavyweight champ. But you mentioned the reson, because he was so small. It wasn't that he had a bad chin, a guy with a bad chin would get knocked out. Patterson was merely knocked over and got right back up.
His take on it was "Sure I was the most knockd down Heavyweight cahmp, but I was also the haevyweight champ that got up the most."
