    Default Who now has the best chin in Boxing?

    Ok now that Margarito has been knocked out, it's pretty safe to say he no longer can be said to have the best chin in boxing.

    So who would you say has the strongest around?

    I've put up some possible candidates, but if you feel it's someone else let me know.

    Andrade, though Mosley's is not too bad either.

    and he has been knocked out with a body shot too

    Id say Molsey has the best chin . The only time he went down was after being nutted.

    Has he been KO'd by a head shot though? My understanding was that he had only been down from body shots, although correct me if I'm wrong. Put him both him & Calzaghe in there on the basis that I thought there would be some people who considered them to have 'granite' chins even if I don't.

    No it was a head shot i just watched the clip the other day they were saying his eyes were crossed and he was holding his gloves over his face crying after it happened.

    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.

    I think if you watch it again the punch that actually makes him drop is the one to his chest, I think the commentators may not have seen that from their angle, just seeing the right hook he swings as Pacquiao goes down

    Never seen this before. Looks like a left hook to the body though.

    Yeah I was considering Andrade, it was between him & Forbes for me, but Forbes got it because he's never been down & in reality he should be fighting at 135, yet he's taken punches off good punchers all the way up to LMW, so for me he just edges it.

    Other close contenders for me would be Mosley, Toney & Duddy.

    It's Toney. He has one of the greatest chins of all-time.

    He's been fighting for 20 years and has fought opponents over a 100 pound range (middleweight all the way up to ~260 pound heavyweights), and has suffered one real knockdown his entire career, against Reggie Johnson.

    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...

    Out and out it has to be Vitali. He takes the hardest punches of all the mentioned fighters and never looks hurt!
