Does Vitali really have a granite chin?

[dan_cov]

Who in the hell has Sanders beaten besides Wlad??no 1 he was a fat ass golfer a damn bum.Vitali's chin is so damn overrated it's ridiculous

How is his chin overrated when its been clapped many times & hes never been down or knocked out?

Let me tell you if it was you that got hit with that Lewis uppercut you'd of been going into space.

Vitali's has a solid chin (he should do - he's much bigger than basically everyone he fights) but it's definitely overrated as it hasn't been tested much. People talk as if he has one of the best chins in boxing pound for pound which is laughable because he hasn't been hit enough times by big punchers to verify that that is the case.

On a related note, Vitali's power is unbelievably overrated - even more than his chin. Simply put, Vitali is an arm puncher. Someone like Haye who weight a LOT less than Vitali punches harder than him because he is faster and actually gets some of his body behind the punches. I can't think of many one punch knockouts by Vitali. Most of his knockouts have been stoppages due to sympathetic referees or guys out on their feet. Not that many brutal knockdowns or KOs.

Yes it is overrated.

Granite chin = hit by a monster bomb & keep coming forward
Strong chin = hit by a monster shot legs wobble but ok
Average chin = Knocked Down / Hanging on for dear life
**** Chin = KTFO Game Over

Granite chin is what you class vitali as when this simply is not true, making him overrated because he belongs in a lower class.

His chin is bad because it hasn't been tested much? Are you serious?
He maybe an arm puncher but he still hits very hard as 40 of 44 men have found out.
George Foreman wasn't always a textbook puncher does that mean big George didn't hit like a truck?
Accumulation or not, he dominates guys and 85% of the time gets hit opponent out of there.
Do you think he has one of the highest heavyweight K.O ratios ever by fluke?

Go watch his fights because you'll only say they was fat & milkmen etc anyway
Pointless debating with a sheer hater, especially one has an avi of a guy who was KTFO by a jab.

KO% does not directly relate to punching power.

Mistake no1

Why doesn't that even matter?

Point is sanders was a hard puncher. Randell bailey hasnt really Beatin anyone as well but that doesn't take away that he hits hard

Yes Vitali has an iron chin.

He may very well have an iron chin but there is little evidence to suggest this as he has rarely got hit big and when he has he has wobbled a bit or looked hurt. Compare this with someone like Margarito who in his prime was hit with bombs and just laughed them off. IMO Vitali has a solid chin but it's not like he's George Chuvalo or Marvin Hagler.
