Re: What major boxer had the worst chin ever
How do you figure? Jones was not stopped until long after his best days and he had went all the way up to HW then down again....Before that he never faltered...and he has been stopped twice...I don't consider that a bad chin....I consider that old age catching up with him and his body taking too much abuse from the gain and loss of so much muscle mass.Originally Posted by Pacstraightleft

Re: What major boxer had the worst chin ever
I figured you guys would jump all over Gerry Cooney so far I've only seen one put him down.I actually am defending him in this one.All I can say is look he was down against.Larry Holmes one of the greatest heavyweight champions,George Foreman again one of the greatest,Michael Spinks one of the best lightheavyweight champions.I would be glad to be knocked down by any of those fighters.LOL. Anyway you guys pretty much named all the Glass Joe's.

Re: What major boxer had the worst chin ever
Ugh, Cooney took MASSIVE accumlation punishment from both Spinks and Holmes before going down.
He was coked out and way past his best weight when ATG great hitter Foreman nearly decapitated him.

Re: What major boxer had the worst chin ever
I probably agree with that one... Plus everyone can get caught with a good shot that you're body is not prepared for and you'll go down... Some could say Hatton because he got decked by Mayweather in that case..How do you figure? Jones was not stopped until long after his best days and he had went all the way up to HW then down again....Before that he never faltered...and he has been stopped twice...I don't consider that a bad chin....I consider that old age catching up with him and his body taking too much abuse from the gain and loss of so much muscle mass.
I think Roy handled punches pretty well, as age and split second lapses in concentration eventually caught up with him, so did the canvas..
But THEN, we hasn't hit much either..

He got stopped twice BIG TIME. And he does have a bad chin.
Do you know who owns the best chin? Try looking up Gerry Penalosa's record. He's 36, reigning champ, and has never been down. Just to let ya know, he went toe to toe with DPDL too and he shoulda won that fight.

WHat about Lennox Lewis? He was sparked cold from a few shots.

Re: What major boxer had the worst chin ever
Lennox Lewis i put in the same boat as i do zab with a lot more.
Because Lewis was great at getting hit with shots you don't see coming. But he was able to take bombs off of people where he saw everything. Anyone's chin can be glass when its not a shot you see. I remember watching Larios and Vasquez fight I think that was the two and one of them got hit with a hard shot that he just fell to the canvas in a heap, and they both had iron chins. I dont remember which one was KO'd badly, but i do remember the thud on the mat
