    Ali got knocked down by Henry Cooper so not the PERFECT example.

    PERFECT example would be Jake LaMotta who took SRR best hits and wasnt knocked down until late on his carrear.

      He was looking at liz taylor from ringside with his private parts erupting, you idiot.

      DOn't make false assuptions until you know the facts.

      ALI is the PERFECT example of a DIAMOND chin.

      You........................are.................... ......a.....................joke


      It's funny how you ignored my earnie shavers video. Also how many DIFFERENT punchers did lamota fight?

      Lets see if you can answer this question.

        Great chin? Perfect Example, Shane Mosley.

        A good chin, Paul Williams or Margarito.


        In short, people who can take flush bombs and not die.

          A criminally over looked fact, in addition to him showing an excellent ability to recover from a KD.

            LaMotta is recognized as having one of the best chins in boxing. In the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre, his sixth bout with Robinson, LaMotta suffered numerous sickening blows to the head. Commentators could be heard saying "No man can take this kind of punishment!" But LaMotta did not go down. The fight was stopped by the referee in the 13th round, declaring it a TKO victory for Robinson.

            Only went down when he was shot and way past his prime. Ali has a great chin but he had way more skills than LaMotta to avoid taking such big blows.

              Agreed, people overlook a fighter's chin due to one TKO/KO loss. ANYONE can be knocked out or stopped. Not a Cotto fan and not defending him but his losses came to a questionable Margarito and Pacquiao.....what do you expect? Sure Cotto has a chin! it's just not an ATG chin.

                Ok fair enough. Ray robinson was a ferocius puncher. Sorry I went over the top there. But please just have a look at my earnie shavers video.

                sorry for the outrage.

                EDIT: yes I do agree with the comment about Ali's skills.

                  James Toney took hard shots from MW-HW. Only been knocked down three times. By Roy Jones, Reggie Johnson and Sam Peter. He was clowning against Roy and knocked off-balance by Peter, he went down hard against Johnson though. Never stopped in 83 professional fights. That's a GREAT chin.

                    Cotto does not have a great chin. At 140 he was vey chinny and some of the shots Pacquiao downed him with were not that big. An alright chin does not mean GREAT chin.
