marciano chuvalo basilio lamotta all had truly a great chin and recognized as such..one fighter also had a great chin thats never mentioned.hector macho camacho.yes thats correct.his last fight number 88 in his career and still never was stoped and he was 48 years old..add to that 100 amatuer fights and i come to the conclution this guy has a great chin..the shame of it all is the what if.what if he didnt get distracted stayed focused how great could he have been...the chin has no what ifs.the record speaks for itself.during his career he fought some terricfic punchers.ramierez rosario trinidad delahoya chavez duran twice ray leanord ray mancini vinny paz bozo edwards and a few others.yes they all hit him and several hit him often but the guy was never stoped.hell he was hard to knock down let alone getting koed.
he had guts also and thats rarely mentioned also..he had unlimited potential was one beautifull fighter dispite the what ifs..the chin.theres no what ifs.he had a great one.

Oliver McCall's atomic chin is legendary. Too bad it get's overshadowed because he was a mental case

Ill never forget how Lewis was STILL petrified of McCall even while Oliver made no move to defend himself. Lewis had a man in front of him making ZERO effort to defend himself and couldnt even make McCall BLINK at Lewis best punches.

That fight was one of the most bizarre things you will ever see in sports.
