    people sleeping on Fury

    Fury went 12 rounds with Klitschko and 19 with Wilder without getting KOd... 94 knockouts between them and it’s not like Fury was on his bike, he schooled them both

    what a legend

    Joyce ? I'm not sure, he have to prove it against TOP 10 guys.

    Voted Joyce but to be honest other than Dubois, has he been in with anyone who can bang and who is looking to clean him out?
    Parker and Fury have both been dropped but have good powers of recovery, so I guess if that counts as having a good chin, I'd say
    1) Fury
    2) Parker
    3) Joyce with the caveat above

    Joyce
    Wach
    Parker

    in that order

    I doubt many could take Dubois biggest shots like Joyce did. I think time will prove what a good win that was.

    Where is Wach in that poll? Proof that OP doesn't know his boxing. It's very possible that Wach may have the best chin in history.

    1: Joe Joyce
    2: Joseph Parker
    3: David Price

    This is who has the strongest chin in the heavyweight division so far in the poll. Think Price should be a bit higher up though. Takes a strong chin to get hit with those bombs and keep getting up and in to the ring.

    Weakest chin on list list after Price. Dropped by average CW in Cunningham and low level opposition in Pjkic as well rocked and wobbled by Flirtha.

    No way, his chin is pretty solid and his recovery is incredible.

    He's probably not as resilient as say Joyce or Ruiz but he's definitely got a tougher chin than the likes of Whyte and Joshua.
