    Richard Towers - Worst chin of all times?

    I knew his chin was dodgy, but didn't know it was this bad.

    Can you think of anyone who's got a worse chin than this guy?

      Haha he looked like a strand of spaghetti. Has he not got any bones in his body or something?

      Can't help but laugh at that stoppage it was like he was belly dancing.

        I was thinking HW, but Crumble's record is pretty damn awful.

        Something tells me he should have probably chosen another sport.

          He got stopped by a bloke weighing 250 pounds with 15 KOs in 17 fights.

          Towers is not very good but hardly worth a mention as worst chin of all time. I'm sure it's better than yours & mine combined.

            He was so awful.

            Never felt Richard Towers was special. You can see his chin was made of china. Oh well.. Retirement anyone?

              But I would LOVE to see Browne vs Price.

                In his defense, Lucas Browne is a beast. Not everyone can have a HW chin like Oliver McCall.

                  that's fine and normally I'm not one to call any heavyweight's chin dodgy because they are fighting such big guys. However, after the first right hand you could see Towers jab was slower, he had no confidence and was shook every time he was touched. Even from a jab.

                  I was never stopped in 28 amateur fights, don't know if your record will bring us down in the combined score! jk, in all seriousness, his chin is bad.

                    It's not hard to look like a beast when you have the human edition of the leaning tower of pisa standing in front of you.

                    He may become something decent, but he's not special in any way. He's slow too.
