Best fighter with the worst chin

i like where BOSS is going with these threads, so I’ll jump on the bandwagon.

Terry Norris for 1000! Going once...going twice....

 

Norris is the runaway answer here. I can't think of another elite/HOF caliber guy who had a chin as bad.

 

Roy Jones. I win.

 

Roy got hit with some solid shots in his prime and took them well.

Now, I won't pretend like the guy ever had the chin of Ali... but the drastic weight loss definitely contributed to his overall downfall. The guy should have never gone back to 175 after the Ruiz fight.

Roy in his prime had a decent chin, but chances are it was never great.

 

Wladerina. But I think it was more of a heart problem than a chin problem

 

Wlad had a bad chin HOWEVER he always kept getting up. I don't think it was THAT bad. Also I think he had heart. The only time I'd question his heart was in the Fury fight.

 

Felix Trinidad's chin was pretty suspect...how many times he get dropped?

 

Trinidad didn't have the greatest chin but his recuperative powers offset that.

Norris definitely takes this one.

 

Lol, he quit against brewster for almost nothing, amd flopped to the floor whenever cromagnon Peter landed on his gloves. Not to mention his extreme reluctance even against guy that couldn't beat my grandma on their best nights. Guy was a coward. He showed some heart against AJ, but it doesn't excuse the rest of his shameful carreer

 

Quit against Brewster? Cmon now. Dude was on deaths door from exhaustion

 

I've posted the video numerous times. Guys make no with his head while getting up. Yeah he was exhausted, but quitters always have a reason

 

Many of Tito's KD's were a product of his poor balance/foot positioning. His chin itself wasn't bad. He definitely he didn't have an excellent chin... but he doesn't belong in this discussion. He took a brutal beating against Hopkins... if his chin was poor he wouldn't have lasted til the 12th.

 

"Quit against Brewster"


Hilarious

 

I hated it when Benny Paret quit against Emile Griffith

 

He would not have always kept getting up if he didn’t have heart.

Suspect chin and horrible survival instincts sure, but the guy had heart.

 

He did not motion no. You are seeing things.

 

The guy could barely stand up against Brewster.

 

Only if you're an autist who don't understand non-verbal language

 

Yeah but Brewster's left hook to his chin made his head spin, which means that he made a no-gesture

 

man I've posted the video specifically for you a few months ago. If you insist on being deliberately blind, I can't do nothing for you

 

You are the only one who sees it.

 

That's bull, especially snce most of the times he went down, he flopped to the canvas for no good reason. Hassam N'dam is similar. Simpletons praise his heart, but those who know the game understand that the guy has a weak heart, cause he goes down whenever someone connect with a decent punch, even if he isn't hurt.

 

So to use an analogy a soldier who panicks and is petrified during combat but one who pushes through is a coward?

But the one who doesn't fear death and is ready to die is brave?

No. They're both brave and actually the former one even more so because he has instincts to flight but chooses to stay and fight.

I don't care for him but Wlad is not a quitter.

 

but that's the thing with WLad, he doesn't push through (at least he didin't against Brewster). He made gay eyes at the ref and was doing everything to make him stop the fight. It was an obvious quit job.
He did it against Sanders to a lesser extent. COmpletely stopped figting after getting nailed the first time.
