your a bigger cop out than I imagined,you do nothing to counter anyones points without exposing yourself to a complete fool who knows nothing about boxing,Then again you probably think sonny liston had a glass jaw too huh?

Originally posted by princemanspoper View PostWell there you go then,it's not like his chin had taken a pounding over the years was it? Some fighters take so many shots to the chin that their chin gradually wears out and cannot take anymore
there's no real argument joe louis had a very weak chin,even his staunchest supporters have admitted as much
you can either take a punch or you can't,neither men could
If he couldn't take a shot he would have lost more than two times...with only 1 coming before he was shot.
His chin just wasn't granite.Last edited by Benny Leonard; 07-17-2009, 05:52 AM.

[QUOTE=JAB5239;5703648]
Jones chin was never tested till he was past his prime but was not only stopped by two guys who'll never be in the Hall of fame, but put to sleep by one punch ko's.
Louis on the other hand was stopped twice. Once past his prime, the other before it. Both times against HOF fighters, and the first time he took
bomb after bomb before finally succumbing. Little bit of a difference there. If you can't understand that its time to re-take boxing 101.
Don't make excuses now lad. If you're right then Tyson was past his prime vs Douglass, Foreman vs Young etc. Nuthugging arse.
