    GGG, but Canelo has a ridiculous chin as well.

    They can bang harder than anyone, Lemieux is the biggest puncher at his weight bar none

    GGG for sure. Never decked or stopped in over 390 fights amateur and pro and he's still displaying an iron set of whiskers despite being years past his prime and after racking up an awful lot of miles on the old clock. Let's see how sturdy Clenelo's whiskers are when he's GGG's age and has lost a step or three and some of his speed. Actually, Clen would probably have to keep fighting until his 50s to rack up as many miles on his ginger clock as GGG has given GGG's much more extensive amateur career.

    GGG 350 amateur fights

    Clenelo either 20 or 46

    So GGG 391 fights am and pro

    Clenelo either 75 or 101. Clen has had 14 more as a pro though

    GGG but Canelo also has an iron chin, both are probably top 5 today.

    GGG can take more than Canelo, its part of his game to walk into them whilst delivering, whilst Canelo is a dodger.

    This without a doubt is a draw. Canelo smoked GGG, no reaction. GGG smoked Canelo, only a slight reaction. Jacobs smoked GGG, no reaction. Jacobs smoked Canelo, no reaction. GGG's chin has taken more abuse before being cracked, thats a given.

    if its a draw, then surely canelo from the lower division, has a better chin pound for pound?

    I'm gonna say Golovkin, his chin is pure iron. I think Canelo's chin is granite, but I've seen him hurt a couple of times. I've seen no chink in Golovkin's armor.........

    and ? They can crack. Look at how many people Lemieux has put to sleep.

    But i guess "they all dont matter".

    Canelo was stil growing and developing his man-chin, we have no idea how a 19yr old GGG would react to those kind of shots.

    There’s a clip I’ve seen of GGG rocked by a journeyman early in his career, not as bad as Canelo against Jose Cotto but against a lesser fighter.

    Edit: found the clip

    I know, but for blunt force hes on his own, world class fighters get beat by him and even the very best are wary of that power...Its undeniable
