Vitali....hell no. You have to fight people that can hurt you to know if you have a good chin. Replace him with Lamottta

man did you see the upper cut he took from Lennox Lewis? that would have KO'd almost any heavyweight i guarantee that. he took several bombs in that fight actually and walked through them. he has never been knocked down in his career. i think it has been tested.

Its all relative to body size, dont look past us 'little' guys. While heavyweights can punch alot harder, they are also better suited for taking harder punches by being bigger. Body size doesnt make too much a difference imo. Within each division, if a guy can crack, then he can crack. Chins are tested in every division.
