Heavyweights with Admantium chins

[Anomalocaris]

McCall - not even hurt when he had a nervous breakdown against Lewis who could punch like hell.

Ali - the left that Joe landed in the FOTC was simply obscene.

Chuvalo - took an obscene amount of punishment.

Foreman - stopped once due more to exhaustion than anything in the Rumble.

Holmes - stopped once when well past his prime and everyone has seen the Shavers punch.

Vitali - that uppercut from Lewis should have decapitated him.

Honourable mentions, Liston and Holyfield whom in their prime had rock solid chins.

This topic must have been done so many times before! Lol.

I think Holyfield is too low. Honorable mention an actual insult. He could also take grossly extended punishment. Did Holmes ever do that? I would chuck Holmes for Holy and give Larry the honorable mention.

[Anomalocaris]

Hardly an insult but I take your point.

However how many heavies cpuld have got up from Shaver's atomic bomb?

Not many.

Ali got knocked down by 1 punch from Henry Cooper a natural 180 pound guy. Joe Fraziers punches also had zero effect on Foreman.

Lennox Lewis landed uppercuts on people like Ray Mercer and Mercer didn't go either. Also Lewis was past his prime and out of shape and still hurt Vitali with jabs in that bout. Vitali because of his running style and his hand picked opponents (Besides him facing a old Lewis) meant Vitali was rarely hit clean but when he was he was hurt and hurt badly. A 38 year old Corrie Sanders hurt Vitali badly and had him staggering around the ring.

Besides overrated Cleveland Williams name another 200 pound plus power puncher Liston faced.

George Foreman and Larry Holmes had great chins but McCall had the best chin of any heavyweight I ever saw. But if you really want to have honorable mentions you could of had Marion Wilson. He wasn't a good fighter and was never stopped though. I think he was only down 1 or 2 times as well.

"Vitali because of his running style" lol! Vitali was one of the most static of heavyweight champions! LOL

Cooper never scaled 180lbs for a professional fight.

David Tua's up there, too.

- - Not a fair comparison since Field was operating at 80% after Big George had him wrecked him enough the last couple of rounds to him hanging on like a cheap suit.
