Does Vitali really have a granite chin?

[kill the body]

You can't really compare chins form the different weight divisions.
Chin durability doesn't scale linearly with the weight - it doesn't mean if you have an average 130 lbs and 250lbs fighter that the last takes punches twice as better or that he punches twice as stronger..
In the heavyweight it normally takes much less punches for the KO. Usually one clean power punch.

Vitali's chin is nothing less than granite - name one guy who would stay on his feet after that Lennox's uppercut.

I remember Chisora telling Vitali (in their face off) how he can't believe how he could took that punch.

Vitali doesn't need to be hit like that every second fight to be proved. That's ridiculous. Lennox, for example, didn't take too many heavy punches but he went straight down from that Rahman's one punch.

Tyson took a beating for 8 rounds and took the same uppercut and he was far from prime

[New England]

yes. his chin was cast iron in his prime. coupled with how high off of the ground it was, and how big he is, he takes punches up there with the greats.

he defense is also very good when he is / was at his best. he was a very underrated ring general.

[Pad83]

There's no one around to test his chin.

Outside of him and his brother there's no half-way decent heavyweights in the world.

Sure he has solid defense and good reflexes so his chin rarely gets tested.The 2 times i have seen him hit flush he either ran and flopped around the ring(against sanders) or held on for dear life(against Lewis).He may have a average or solid chin but i think it is very overrated

LOL, someone who doesn't have a clue.

Probably have not seen Vitali fight Lennox or Sanders.

And yes those to are big punchers.

And Vitali is willing to trade, he fights with his hands down and throws big punches.

Held against Lewis??? Lewis was doing more of the holding.

Lennox Lewis is one of the biggest punches in the history of the sport and Vitali took them and never went down.

If Vitali doesn't have a granite chin then no one does.


Got to be a wind up thread, no one can be this ******.

[Jack Napier]

if Sanders best lefts and that uppercut from Lennox didn't KO him, it's safe to say Vit's chin is fucking beastly

Apparently you missed rounds five and six where Vitali was hanging onto Lennox like he was his mommy's titty.

So let me get this straight: You just posted a video where Vitali is grabbing Lewis by the shoulders 10 seconds into the clip? Do you even watch what you post?
