        To be fair, he was basically a LHW and I could forgive him the destructions from Liston. But Johanssen?

        I think Hearn's chin is underrated, Leonard, Hagler and Barkley were big punchers and the only other time he was stopped was at 41, as a fricken cruiser.

        Edit: I could've sworn the title said "Chinese" boxers. Damn.

          hearns didnt have the best chin(although his was not glass), neither did norris


          moorer didnt have a great one


          corrales was chinny but he had so much heart

          JMM goes down and gets wobbled but has great recovery skills and is like a cornered wild animal when you hurt him, even more dangerous, in fact i think wobbling JMM seems to kind of wake him up and get him going

            I'd say it's fair to say that now. The guy has heart, he showed it in the Calzaghe fight, so if he could have gotten up from those knockouts he would have.

            Tarver did the same thing RJ did, but he went up to 210 and a lot of it was muscle for the Rocky role. He came back and showed that he still had a good chin after the weight loss.

                So who was the most successful "chinless warrior" ever?
                Jones hands down!

                    Wladimir Klitschko, Floyd Patterson and Michael Moorer had great careers. For Vargas, i really don't know if he had a terrible chin. He could take punches from Quartey and only got hurt by ATG punchers like DLH and Trinidad.
