    Sorry bro, but you are indeed wrong. When referring to 'chin' or 'beard' one is speaking about neck and above. Temple is indeed included. While it is true that the temple is a switch, fighters have different degrees of tolerance.

                Don't forget Wayne Martel the "indian warrior" (quote from Zab) who fought Judah in the Garden and was knocked down five times in the first round before the fight was stopped. That should also be considered an all time great beard.

                  Fact isn't that he was knocked out, he could have been knocked out 15 times and still have a good chin. Watch the fights again, Tyson gets wailed on by tons of punches before falling. Knocked down or out isn't what makes a chin, its how much it takes for you to be knocked down or out.
