    Got to be Fury or Wilder.
    I dont think Klitschko have bad chin. He was badly hurt once in his life and that was against Sanders. He was a couple of times goes down in the back of the head shots and some FK.

    Tarver? :?

    I think Wilder, Fury and Klitschko have bad chins.

    But Cunningham is the worst, his jaw is made of glass.

    Until Wilder gets sparked , Wlad has the worst chin.

    Its a simple cognitive and logical fact

    Steve Cunningham has alot of heart but a bad chin - a bit like Khan. He often gets dropped at HW, but has come back from it to win twice.

    Wladimir take the best shots from the best HW and HW with power and he was still standing.
    Peter hit him, Chagaev hit him, Pulev try hard, Thompson as well, Haye hit him with the best he have and Wlad was pretty much ok. Roid Wach hit him flush , he could not get the job done.
    Thats not a glass chin.
    Glass chin is Fury, Wilder, Price .... And still Wilder is waiting to happen.
    Also Wladimir was never down in his entire amateur career.

    Bryant Jennings was down against a journeyman. Wilder took power punches from Stiverne.

    Jennings has definetly the worst chin in the top 10.

    It's clearly Wilder or Fury. Both have been dropped by non punchers on more than one occasion.

    Wlad has been down more times than anyone active but it's always been against big hitters. The way Wilder and Fury went down against light hitters would be like Wlad getting dropped by Byrd in both fights and not even Wlad's chin is that bad.

    Wlad was down more times, but just as you mention was by big hitters. And most of the knockdown was FK or due to fatigue(standing knockdown against Brewster and the one against Purrity.
    Wlad was hurt by Sanders, first knockdown with big punches and headbutts. He was out cold, but still get up.
    And Wilder was not hit clean by Stiverne.
    I dont say Wlad have strong chin, but for sure its not glass, and its not the worst. He have great defence due to Manny, but its not only that, he is not dropped for more then 10 years for god sake, and he was hit by hard punchers.
    Both Chagaev and Peter hit him pretty clean after brake from the referee, while Wlad guard was down and he take that shots without a problem. Haye hit him flush couple of times and could not get the job done, same as the others i mention above.

    Wilder was dropped heavily by Harold Sconiers and

    Wobbled by a jab from Nicolai Firtha. And Wilder was never hit flush by Stiverne.

    Jennings > Wilder

    Wlad. He dropped like he was dead when Sanders hit him.

    either the old one (tarver) or prime Wlad (proven to get destroyed instantly by retirees, no one else comes close to that poor here).
