    Everyone brings up Wlad Klitschko but defends Lennox Lewis. This seems to be another case of trying to make a legend out of a fighter that is retired.

    Are we talking about chins or stamina? Most of Wlad's problems come from stamina problems/punching himself out and not being chinny. I have never seen Wlad sparked out cold like Lennox Lewis.

    People that mention Roy Jones must have just started watching boxing around the time he fought Tarver. They obviously havent seen much else of his career, Jones fought Toney, Hopkins, Virgil Hill, Montell Griffin all in primes and was never down or hurt.

    Good points about Lewis but wrong in the Wlad explanation though. Wlad was sparked by Corrie Sanders. Sanders who career was based off knocking out Wlad. None of the punches he landed were earth shattering but they were good enough to blow Wlad out of the water. If Sanders would of never fought Wlad he could be considered a nobody but to defend Wlad people act like Sanders was one of the most skilled and hardest punchers in the last 30 years. In Reality Sanders was nothing more than a C level fighter at best

    Wlad was hurt by DaVarryl Williamson another glass chin fighter who got starched in one round by the overrated Joe Mesi. Yet he was able to take Wlads punches and hurt him with a grazing blow. If you can touch Wlad with a half way decent punch you can hurt him not matter who you are. His chin is even worse than Lennox Lewis.

    "El Toro Salvaje De Las Pampas" Firpo anyone?

    He hit the canvas 7 times in the 1st round vs. Demps.
    He also hit the canvas 4 times in the 1st round vs. Angel Rodriguez.

    GeorgeForeman8 and brocktonbluckbust....while you guys try to explain your points of view you just come up lacking in your arguements.

    Yes Lennox Lewis did have a decent chin, getting KO'd twice out of 44 fight isn't that bad considering who he fought and who he beat...he was never hurt by David Tua or Mike Tyson.

    Wladimir Klitschko doesn't have the greatest of chins, however, he doesn't stay down...also Corrie Sanders wasn't just a power puncher he is also a southpaw which not many people see at heavyweight. Wlad doesn't have the worst chin...not even close. Tommy Morrison got railed by MICHAEL BENNT!

    Michael Moorer doesn't even have that bad of a chin....he was KO'd 3 times: George Foreman...refresh my memory, was Big George a power puncher David Tua, definently a power puncher, also caught Moorer at the tail end of his career. Also Evander Holyfield, a guy who has underrated power and a heavy workrate...he KO'd Tyson a guy with a seemingly good chin.


    I say Primo Carnera, Andrew Golota, Ken Norton, and Michael Grant have worse chins.
