Calzaghe V Froch............Who got the best chin?

Hang on, who is everybody?

 

depends how you judge it. Is having a good chin mean that you cannot go down ? I don't see it just like that. Sure JC has been down a few times, but he has always got up, and come back stonger, taking shots harder than the shots that knocked him down.

People like Chris Eubank ... renowned for having a granite chin, was down a few times, does not mean you have a glass jaw or anything. It does not matter how hard your chin is, if you get flush more often or not you will go down, the guys who get up and shake it off and come back stronger, are the guys you can say have a good chin.

 

exactly:good

 

From what Ive seen (and thats not much of Froch), he would probably stay on his feet longer than Calzaghe, but Calzaghe has very good powers of recovery.

 

It's impossible to know how good Froch's chin is. He took some good shots the other night but that Pascale... I don't think she's a big powerful puncher like a prime Reid. Calzaghe took some tremendous shots that night. Both have got great chins but I'd like to reserve judgement on who's is best until Froch's gets checked a bit more.

One thing's for sure, Amir Khan would take either chin.

 

Froch has had one fight at world level.

 

Froch's chin is better than Joes , joe has been put down a few times although hi schin improves as the fights go on .

 

joes chin is not what it used to be. joes chin is good at the start of the fight but by round 3 or 4 has been pushed up to world class granite

 

Froch took some big shots against pascal

Calzaghe got floored by a short right.

Calzaghe is harder to hit, froch takes the better shot

 

Froch took some heavy shots and was still standing, after round 2 i predicted that Froch would fold and get knocked down or tko'd in the latter of the rounds.Boy was i wrong!

 

Calzaghe definately, yeah he's be floored 4 times, but the shots that put him down would have put anyone down, with the exception of the jones shot maybe. The fact that he has got up fresh every time shows how good his chin is. And for the majority of his knock downs he has either been off balance as in the Kalem fight, or caught flush with full body weight connections such as the Bhop or Mitchell fight.

Also, look at the big shots he took in the Bhop, Kessler, and even the Jones fight which didn't even phase him.

As for Froch, he seems tough with a good chin, but Pascal isn't a huge puncher, we've yet to see him get 'properly' hit.

Point is, Calzaghes chin is tried and tested, so far Frochs isn't.

 

THe cobra could take a shot from prime Tyson and only get wobbled. His chin is seriously super duper fantastic.

 

gotta go with froch, although clazaghe been in with better guys, frochs never been down as amateur and pro.
