      i can't see anyone getting hit with those shots from Rahman and McCall and not going down. both are strong guys, and rahman's shot came from left feild, he really loaded up on that shot, no one would stand after that one.

        he only lost when inexperienced and with a **** trainer or under-trained and not focused

        i think his chin is very underated
        Morrison never got started i hate watching that fight it almost seemed as evertime Morrison hit him Morrison went down

              i haven't seen to many of Tommy's fights, i saw remember when he fought Mercer, i was pissed cause the ref let him take such a long beating, he was clearly out on his feet. and the foreman fight i was also pissed because i expected Tommy to try to go head up with foreman, but he decided to dance around. I like and respect boxers that can do that but when u get 2 guys like that in the ring, i expect a slugfest

                Those guys(Tyson never hit him flush, Oldyfield barely but didnt have the same power, dunno about the Duke) didn't hit him enough, and they were unlucky. Cause you can crack this ******* if you catch him like Rahman or Oliver.
                The shot that the Rock hit him with would have KOed 90% of the HW out there including Tyson.

                    I agree Rock threw that from the bleachers. The McCall shot on the other hand was fast and right on the button. He has an average chin. He skills stopped him from being knock out more. Bad recovery ability. I do think he was rocked in the Mercer fight though and still won. I don't know of any other times but these he has been hurt.

                      But Bentt was a great amatuer fighter who didn't reach his potential as a pro.
