    Foreman had s titanium chin

    foreman gets recognition for being 1 of the hardest hitters,
    however I rarely see people praising him for his steel chin.
    he got hit with opponents biggest punchers, from hooks to uppercuts to overhand rights, and HE STILL KEPT coming forward, like nothing had happend.
    incredible , like a brick wall.

      The older Foreman actually had a better chin than the young one, but both versions had very good chins.

        Nobody who's lost by KO should be praised for the chin.

                  Foreman does have an iron chin.

                  Most only remember his KO loss to Ali (even though it was obviously by exhaustion and he got up at 8) and his slugfest with Ron Lyle where he was dropped twice (got up both times).

                  Foreman had NO defense in his early career aside from slipping a punch or two, he took punches flush from Frazier, Norton, Ali, Lyle and others.
                  I never saw him hurt by anyone else except Lyle and Lyle was a hard puncher.

                  When Foreman came back from retirement he took vicious beatings from Holyfield, Moorer and others and simply refused to go down, he was like a rock.

                  Foreman's neck was actually as big as Tyson's, he had a huge head too.
