But never forget things could be worse. I could be a Kilt Nasty.!!!! There used to be a horrible football chant that went along the lines of " I'd rather be a Paki than a Jock " personally I thought that was a bit out of order, but then again, as I said earlier, what the hell do I know?

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
To be fair to Kalan, he didn't claim to have seen any Greb footage. He did however claim to have seen Graziano-Zale 1 and 2, which, of course, is equally stupid. Caught in a bald faced lie but not man enough to own up to it, so it lives on.golden oldie wrote: I have no intention of searching through past threads regarding what footage you claim to have watched of Harry Greb in a cinema.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
I wouldn't beat my self up over it. The likelihood of existing Greb footage is roughly the same as Graziano-Zale 1&2 footage, about zero. Kalan lied, but then again he also claim to have a professional record, a secret record it seems.golden oldie wrote:Then it is MY mistake and I owe him an apology.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
Apology accepted...
The 3 Graziano-Zale fights were all recorded and all existed at one time. Those fights were too important not to be filmed for posterity and they all were -- and distributed for viewing. But like so many movies and historical documentaries that have been lost, stolen, destroyed, or were not properly maintained and deteriorated beyond repair -- viewable copies of 2 of the 3 Graziano-Zale fights can no longer be found.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
Name me one single person who claims to have seen professional footage of Graziano-Zale 1 or 2. It's a well known fact that they were not professionally filmed.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
Not anymore. At least nobody can find it. What I saw as a youngster seemed to be professionally shot footage with voice over commentary. It was ringside.. Not 50 rows back in the cheap seats.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
Marvelous had the greatest boxing chin pound per pound of all time.
I imagine if he fought these guys:
Florentino Fernandez
Julian Jackson
Gerald McClellan
Nigel Benn
Iran Barkley

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
Hagler had a strong chin, but not on the order of a Gennady Golovkin who's had many more World Title Fights without a loss... I've seen Marvelous hurt and knocked down. Short, little Mugabi certainly reached him. Leonard certainly caused him pause a few times with those hard flurries.. He didn't go pell-mell after little bitty Duran.. He did take on the chinny and skinny Hearns of course.
He knew he had a huge advantage inside of Tommy’s long, skinny arms.. Marv knew he could get on that weak chin.. He knew that Hearns trading bombs with him, instead of boxing him, was the stupidest thing since Floyd Patterson thinking the rematch with Sonny Liston was going to be any different.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
I have never seen a boxer taking a shot to the chin better than Marvelous in my lifetime. His fistic war with the great Tommy Hearns proved it.Kalan wrote:Hagler had a strong chin, but not on the order of a Gennady Golovkin who's had many more World Title Fights without a loss...

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
That's all right... The great Tommy Hearns got knocked out 3 times when he was in his 20's. Not a massive feat to accomplish.
When you blow somebody away who's never been knocked out before or after you fight him -- that's a real feat... Like James Toney did to MIchael Nunn.
And that other guy who knocked Hearns out in 3? ... Iran Barkley? ... Toney got him out too...
And Toney fought Super Middleweights.. Light Heavyweights.. Cruiserweights.. and Heavyweights -- without ever getting stopped.. Hagler didn't.

Oh, and Tommy was, is and will forever be an infinitely bigger name in boxing than Toney.
Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
Hearny was world famous for getting smashed unconscious... Toney accomplished more and wasn't Mr. Brittle Chin.

Not even the same league. He'd box circles around Toney too.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
LMFAO... Yeah!! ... Like Hearns was anxious to fight Michael Nunn, Mike McCallum, Reggie Johnson, Iran Barkley, and other guys Toney toyed with.
They would ALL knock the skinny little chinny cherry-picker coo-coo.

Especially since Michael Nunn, Mike McCallum, and Reggie Johnson were all much better boxer-punchers than the super hittable Iran Barkley...
Who happened to floor Tommy Hearns 3 times with right handers and beat him both on points and by brutal KO!!!! ... They didn't need a trilogy.

Nobody could outbox Hearns. Least of all, you.

And that's all because Tommy was so punchable that a guy the caliber of Barkley beat him any way you could beat a guy.

Re: Pound per Pound Best Chin in History
Hearns had massive and epic fights with boxing legends Hagler, Leonard and Duran. Fights that lived up to the hype and are widely talked about to this day, fights that went down in history as some of the greatest. Toney had only one truly big and anticipated fight in his career and we all know what happened in that fight don't we Kalan?Kalan wrote:LMFAO... Yeah!! ...

I consider Toney a great fighter but he just never had the legendary fights or the career of Hearns. Toney had the better chin but he didn't have the natural power of Hearns and he couldn't box like Tommy, not many could. People loved to watch Tommy, they never cared much about Toney.

Dick Tiger seems to have faced better punchers than Hagler. Wouldn't his durability be proven at a higher level?
