best fighter with the worst chin

[dan_cov]

Willie Pep most certainly didn't have a glass jaw, are you insane?


I'd say Lennox Lewis was pretty chinny though many will disagree.


Amir Khan, Tommy Morrison, Tommy Hearns, Nigel Benn though he had the heart of a lion.

I think don't Hearns chin was that bad, it was more due to his stamina IMO. He took a lot of bombs against Hagler and a few crisp counters from Leonard early in their fight.

The first person that comes to mind is Norris. A chin is the only thing that he didn't have.

Floyd Patterson was chinny. He had the tools but his chin let him down & my god was fast, his handspeed is up there with ANY heavyweight to ever live, exceptionally quick hands & feet.

Not saying he didn't fight big punchers, just about every heavyweight has K.O power. Simply saying he was pretty chinny.
Everytime he got tagged he was hurt or knocked out by mainly lesser guys.

Good, clever boxer that used his size well but the guys chin wasn't exactly fantastic.

all range from very good punchers to flat out bombers, and all range from good sized to very large.

obviously there are two L's in there by kayo
but a flush bomb from a HW with power will put you on your butt. that's the allure of the division.


you don't get W's over each of these guys being "chinny"
especially being so chinny as to be called "the best fighter with the worst chin"

[The_Demon]

Norris and Moorer instantly spring too mind

[fitefanSHO]

I was 19.

Tyson was "unbeatable"

And Carl Williams had a china chin for the ages!

There were some big punchers there,.... but I wouldn't say many of them were very good at getting through,....... you know,,,, the Very fast and Hard punchers with precision & accuracy... I rarely ever saw Lewis get hit flush..... His ability level was always far in excess than that of his opponents.
