You may be right, he may have a great chin even though Tarver and Johnson might disagree with that.

85.71% of Boxingscene members don't know a thing about chins.
How is the guy who was knocked out for the first time in his mid 30s, past his best and coming down 1 fight removed from HW at LHW, the one with the worst chin of those 3?
Erik Morales shouldn't even be on the poll.
Mike Tyson has the worst chin of the 3. Dude got knocked out at 24 years old, and was knocked out twice by age 30. His chin gave out on him way faster than Roy's did. Roy was like 35 when he first lost by TKO.

I wouldn't say he has a bad chin but I think it's fair to say that he's not known for having a great one either and maybe because he never went through those wars.
You may be right, he may have a great chin even though Tarver and Johnson might disagree with that.
In his 1-3minute TKO's, you could not see how good Tyson's chin was. Douglas was the first fighter to take to deep waters and he knocked him out.
Tyson's never really been in a "war". He either knocked out quickly or he gets knocked out. I mean 5 of his 6 losses were TKO's. And the only loss that wasn't a TKO was a DQ. Roy has more losses than Tyson, yet he has fewer losses by stoppage. And he racked up those TKO losses while being PAST prime. Tyson started at an early age, 24 yeas old.
