Lennox v Tua
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

Whoops, forgot the title said "chinny fighters", apologies.

Hatton was chinny? That's ridiculous. He was peppered by a million punches before being stopped by one of the greatest fighters in history - and anyone on Earth that fought Pacquiao like they'd just stepped out of a nightclub at 4am would get wiped out. Fact.

Hatton's chin was fine until after Tszyu.
I think his lifestyle degenerated after that fight and I feel his punch resistance was ruined.
Mayweather was the one to really break his chin for him, but he was hurt by Collazo, Lazcano and even Paulie Mallignaggi before Pac ended him.

In Hattons fight with Lazcano (a career lightweight), I was really shocked at how many times he got wobbled and had to fight through. I was almost in disbelief about the way Lazcano fought and how easily he hurt him with short shots. I think he was very resilient around the waste, but he has a spark zone that is a little light for a world class fighter. He had no lack of heart or recovery ability either.

- and I quote from some random guy on the internet
Markus Beyer vs Danny Green
Anthony Mundine vs Danny Green
Junior Jones vs Orlando Canizales = I wouldn't say Orlando Canizales is a 1 hit KO puncher, but i think he has the type of power, to turn a fight around with 1 punch.
Junior Jones vs Jorge Aliecer Julio = Another respectful puncher.

Mundine verses Okkte .
Sorry, I just find the paradox really funny.

He was noticeably buzzed twice in that fight. He never went down. He never stumbled around like a drunk. He carried on coming forward. It was coming to the end of his career. And hardly a fighter in history hasn't been buzzed.
His style meant he always took a ton of shots. If he was chinny he would have never made it through 40 odd fights without getting stopped.
Did he have a granite chin? No. Did he have a weak chin? No. He had a solid chin that allowed him to only ever be stopped by two greats. That don't make him chinny. Fact.

Lennox was considered chinny during his day, but looking back at when he was actually hurt and KO'd I think he has a far better chin than he's given credit for. The flaw in Lennox's game that I think is the biggest is that at times he was LAZY...he apparently wasn't often lazy in training but in the ring, during the fight....look at the Bruno fight, it's like he wasn't even trying until he touched Frank and hurt him, then he tasted blood and went for the kill. He was lazy vs Shannon Briggs and should have had a knockdown scored against him, but he got his mind right and just blasted Shannon all night.

Chris Byrd Vs. David Tua
Chris Byrd was NOT chinny! I mean he took some hellacious shots in his career and was still standing, he lasted 11 with Vitali, 12 with Wlad the first time, got BLASTED by Ibeabuchi, took big punches from Tua, etc etc.....he didn't have a glass chin, he just couldn't punch worth shit

Well if Lennox Lewis is chinny than Chris Byrd is Glass Joe.... He looked like a 2 dollar suitcase flapping in the wind vs George. Povetkin slapped him around pretty good too.
