So to settle it can you put 1 or more boxer into each of these category
Here are some examples of fighters who, imo, belong in each category:

GOAT chin - really, it's a three way tie between Chuvalo, McCall and LaMotta

Granite chin - Randall "Tex" Cobb, Marvin Hagler

Good chin - Muhammad Ali, Vitali Klitschko, George Foreman

Average chin - Larry Holmes, Sergio Martinez

Bad chin - Lennox Lewis, Tommy Hearns

Glass chin - Fraudley "A FARCE" Harrison, Clifford Etienne

Worse than glass chin - Amir Khan, Eric Crumble

How many times did he hit the canvas? Quite a few as I recall. Holmes' chin wasn't terrible, but it wasn't rock solid either.
