    There's very little evidence Hamed had a weak chin. His knockdowns were because of his poor balance.

            Asian....

            Frank Tate ?

            He was only stopped by Nunn....& that was on a body shot.....on a body that was totally weight-drained....& exhausted by being completely smacked silly by Nunn.

                You'd be thinking quite right there !
                What about Big John's loss to Berbick ?
                John got tapped...& went staggerig forward as Berbick bopped his dome.

                Tate was a very big guy for that time period, but had a flyweight's chin.

                  The Mike Weaver KO was also brutal. I saw him in the Olympics getting bombed out on a not too particularly hard right hand from Teofilo Stevenson that was pretty embarrassing.

                    The weaver shot was at least potent....the Berbick punches were kind of half-assed.
