    i know the wlad guys say he always gets up but he gets hurt.

    even holyfield and bowe who had great chins is only a 8 because they got hurt a lot too.
    I think Holyfield and Bowe have a great chin for HW.

    the problem most people when looking at chin they see of the lighter weight class.

    in the HW every punch is a KO punch

      not in this era it seems......i see a lot of arm punches in most heavyweight fights.

      god , would i give anything for an aggressive , young fighter who stays in good shape with a good chin , great stamina , a crisp right cross and properly thrown left hook.

      i don't care the nationality , race or whatever........

        in this era the drug test are better there mafia influence is less and the money and public mainstream is lower.

        Everybody in those day knew who was Ali, or Jack Dempsy, Frazier, Walcott...etc

        The HW was the pride of boxing on that time.

        But now the Eastern European are taking over and people are trying to make the HW look bad.

            I'll rate his chin a 3. His toughest keeps me from giving him a 1 becuase he always wants to get back up. He just can't take a punch.

              I'd say a solid 7....Yes he gets knocked down but he always gets up and has never been lights out KOed.....And he's really only been put down by heavy handed guys.

                    i don't mind the eastern europeans.

                    i liked lyakhovich and maskaev. i like the klitschkos too but vitali's health problems and wlad's overcompensation for his chin really hurt the division.

                    valuev i don't like because i consider his fights a circus freak show. chagaev is good but same as vitali he's always pulling out of fights.

                      I choose 8. Vladimir has won 8 fights consecutive. When he wins 9 consecutive, then I will choose 9. When he wins ten consecutive, I will choose 10.
