have to go with Oliver McCall, Librado Andrade, Micky Ward had a solid jaw, David Tua, Hopkins, Mosley, "Arthur Abraham...never saw anything like that with miranda!!" He suffered a broken jaw in that right?

Fuck i forgot Hagler. Anyone who can trade with Tommy Hearns for 3 rounds and not take a knee deserves mention.

Nuri Seferi. He got an Iron chin as well.

Currently; In Chi, Toney, Peter, Baldy
Past: La Motta, Hagler, Ali, Chuvalo, Foreman

I don't know about chin, but Larry Holmes besides Ali had the fastest recovery time I've ever seen.

Simply the best....... Chris Eubank.

Fought Benn twice, Calzaghe and Carl Thompson twice.

Thompson had world class power at 200lbs, he hit Eubank flush and Eubank took it.

On this basis Joe Calzaghe has the best chin in boxing -

It is perfectly balanced between solidness and weakness. He can take very big shots, but still goes down at advantagous times, which allows him to recover.

You my friend are truly unique in your obsession....its quite eire.
