The five greatest chins in boxing history

[smashup]

Who agrees/Disagrees
Vitali Klitschko was never put down and Hagler only once which was dubious (slip) Holyfield had a cracking chin but was put down 3 times i think.

Eubanks Snr had a great chin took the bombs of Benn and was only down on a slip

Watson put him down fair and square so did Calzaghe

Joe's was a flash knockdown and Watson beat him up for 11 brutal rounds and that was near exhaustion.

Anyone who can take Benn's bombs carrying his hands so low deserves a mention.

Carl Thompson could not knock him down.

The stats on George Chuvalo are amazing.
93 fights at Heavyweight and never put down!
Plus he mixed it with some huge punchers

Hagler deserves a spot over Toney for sure. Toney was down and visibly hurt at middleweight.

I bet Hagler couldn't go up to HW and do what Toney did though. Toney was just hungry at MW, it would get any man down.

Bonavena had him stumbled and sitting on a rope and some say pure slip. Chin is still pure granite considering what he's dealt with in later life!

Always have to put top for me Juan Laporte. Far as I know never dropped and only stoppage was between rounds at very end. Face serious leather from Azumah Nelson, Sanchez, Tszyu, Pedroza, Chavez, Gomez among others and never budged.

Toney I don't know. Was rocked and dropped at middle, cruiser and Fat Peter dropped him with a jab. To me his mastery was his defense and doesn't fit to site his chin. Sturdy but didn't need to wear it all the time. Then again he went in with serious heavies also and that pack of hotdogs serving as a neck certainly strengthened it.

Marion Wilson absolutely. Maybe a Ross Purity. McCall is standard fair on these lists. Dominick Quinn had titanium teeth. Ben Tackies up there. Of course not greats but hell . Did LaMotta make it?
