No Oliver mccall was never dropped either

You beat me to it. McCall & i guess you could add Usyk but he only fought 3 HWs so far. I’m not sure if he was ever down at CW but I don’t think he has been…

Is Vitali really the only HW champ to never be knocked down? Interesting stat.

McCall never dropped in fights or sparring. Vitali was laid out by Raphael Butler sparring…

Good call. Valuev is possibly another one but reading online somebody claims he was dropped in an early fight. Thinking about it now, has Joseph Parker ever been down?

Yeah, Whyte had him down twice officially, though the 1st was a clear headbutt

Different sport, but also got KTFO in a European championship kickboxing bout in the 90s (I think)

Don’t know what this guy’s been smoking because he’s obviously forgotten that AJ hasn’t been down either; not even in the bedroom, apart from one time with the wife of that other great granite chin our era, Mr. Khan.

No you're right valuev was never knocked down either was wobbled against haye but never down but the guy was just basically a refrigerator on legs lool so not surprising. And Yes Parker has been down against derek chisora and dillian whyte

Mccall did hundreds of rounds of sparring with tyson aswell was his chief sparring partner for years and apparently he was never dropped there either. Guys chin was unreal yeah he's got the TKO on his record but we all know that's when he had a bit of a breakdown against Lewis in the rematch and just quit mid round

Yeah mccalls chin was unreal he was in with huge puncher over the years aswell. and usyk hasn't been dropped as a pro so far but he was down against beterbiev in a amateur bout from a body shot you can see on YouTube but beterbiev is a monster the punching power is scary with him and it was a few years ago now

I want Usyk to test his chin against Deontay wilder

If he's still never been down after fighting him that'll be an achievement.

The best part of that fight is the post fight press conference with McCall. It is unreal the stuff he said… lol!
