Re: Who now has the best chin in Boxing?
Jame Toney. Margarito still has a great chin. I can't see to many fighters taking as many clean shots as Margarito took without going down
And why the fukk is Duddy on the list? He has no business in any top chins lists
Re: Who now has the best chin in Boxing?
Had to go with Hopkins. Let's see where these others are at 44 and still beating top class fighters like Pavlik

The Larios stoppage was McCullough on his feet pleading with the doctor to not stop the fight. He hadn't been wobbled or put down (never looked close to going down in his whole career) just was taking a worrying amount of punches, considering his age and the battles he's been in.
I have no idea why they even had a 2nd fight. The first one was competitive but to me was pretty one-sided. Larios dominated the second. The last couple of rounds were especially brutal for McCullough. Larios hit him with every thing.
I remember reading a story on McCullough a while back. Said the hardest punch he took was an upper cut from Victor Rabanales. Caught him on the point of the chin. Jarred him so badly he thought he was sitting on the coach with his wife watching TV. Good thing for him he recovered fast.

I don't rate Duddy much as a fighter, but one thing I do give him credit for is his chin. He took some big shots against Smichet & basically fights with no defence so that's why I had him in the list because even fightin like that he aint been KD even though he's small for his division

The cuz he ain't fought anybody good. The biggest names he's fought are 65 year old Howard Eastman and 98 year Yory Boy Campas. And Campas beat his ass. So did Smichet. And Smichet is crap. But than again so is Duddy

Both the Jones knockdown and the Peter one were the result of being off balance.
Without any doubt Toney has a great chin,but Toney with Hopkins and PBF is probably the best defensive fighter around these days rolling with the punches or slipping them...he doesn't really gets hit flush...IMO that makes it hard to say how good his chin really is...But on the other hand like you said being a former middleweight taking a heavyweight punch ain't too bad either...
Re: Who now has the best chin in Boxing?
Margarito and Andrade taking into consideration for their poor defensive and of course McCullough.
I wouldn’t put guys like Hopkins or Kessler on that list considering their chins are not enough tested.

Yeah don't get me wrong, I'm not saying those fighters are anything special & they are old but all those guys can bang a fair bit & he took most of their shots straight on his chin & kept walkin even when his face looked smashed to bits, so I rate him for that.
Re: Who now has the best chin in Boxing?
I agree with those saying that Margo should still be in there. Yes, he did get KTFO. But he took a TON of clean shots throughout the whole fight and was just smiling.
Re: Who now has the best chin in Boxing?
It is a close one between Librado Andrade and Vitaly Klitschko, both men can really take a shot. I think you have to go with Vitaly as he has been in with the bigger punchers I would suppose
Re: Who now has the best chin in Boxing?
Why does this suddenly knock Marg off the #1 spot? Did you people not see the BOMBS he took before he went down?

Yeah those last couple of rounds was a ridiculous sick beating. It was amazing how coherent/normal/right he was when protesting the stoppage to the doctor. :-\
I read that about Victor Rabanales too.. don't remember the bit about him and his wife watching TV though ;D

Why Is Khan Not On The List ?

Check your facts, he's been stopped twice by body shots.
I woulds say between Mosley, Forbes, Vitali, and still Margarito... Just because JLC was ko'ed by Corrales didn't mean he didn't have a chin of granite. I would like to see Mosley deal with the punishment he put on Margarito.

now this a little hard to see but from what the commentator said was that he got hit on the MOUTH flush and his eyes were crossed. and i never said it was a FACT. Most the shit u say aint Facts either.
Never seen this before. Looks like a left hook to the body though.

Although I voted for Vitali, I agree with the above. P4P Marg still has the best chin for me.
