The fights i've seen of Tito's he didn't have an extraordinary chin either.. But he was able to get back up and recover.

taking the chance of being redundant.. as i didn't read pages 1-4.. i think Diego Corrales was a bit chinny.. i mean, it kind of depends on how you look at it.. the man was a warrior and a machine, but he has to be the guy who has the most 1 punch knock downs i've ever seen.. he may not have been KO'd/TKO'd but he still went down A LOT.. vs mayweather at least 4 times, casamayor at least twice in the first two fights, castillo in the first fight 3 times i think? plus i'm sure more that i'm missing, but he went down A LOT..
not to take anyhting away from him.. he was great, he just got knocked down a lot.. thankfully he was courageous enough to get back up and keep going and thats why he was a champ.
Lennox Lewis. It took a single punch from 2 journeymen. No accumulation, nothing, just a punch and down he goes.
I'm going with Vlad Klitschko, Tommy Hearns, and Lennox Lewis...
I noticed a few people mentioned Roy Jones and I may have to agree. Roy's reflexes were so extraordinary that he almost never even took a clean head shot for the first 40 or so fights of his career. I get the feeling that if in his prime he had the reflexes of a mere mortal, he would have been knocked around the ring like Zab, Wlad, and other glass jawed fighters.
Primo Carnera didn't have the best of chins and he was a "title holder"
Andrew Golota gets KO'd his fair share of times
No way did Lewis have a glass chin! Just watch this.

I thought Lewis simply couldn't get up from both. Got counted to 10 and that was it. His legs simply couldn't hold him. When Lewis faced Tyson I don't even think Tyson connected. I just wanted Tyson to connect that left hook to Lewis' jaw for him to crumble but Tyson, I dunno, just didn't had what he needed (past his prime, intimidation, etc.). When he faced Klitschko and got hit on the jaw before the fight was stopped he was fazed easily, same thing with Kltitschko.
Duane Bobick
Carl "The Truth" Williams
Gerry Cooney
Michael Moorer
Wlad Klitschko
"Big" John Tate
Fernando Vargas
Tommy Hearns
Some of the biggest names that had the worst chins... imo
Majority of all his knockdowns were flash knockdowns, i think all these bad chins rumors would have been erased when he fought a much bigger man in Bernard Hopkins and took a pasting and was still there. It took a monster right hand from Hopkins to stop Tito and even then Tito still got up from it.
