    i would say chin, if you cant take a punch, then you can have all the skill in the world and it wont do anygood.....being the most skilled fighter doesnt mean you will always win.

    But a fighter with technical skill can give any fighter trouble, on the way to getting brutally knocked out, a guy with a good chin will take far more dangerous punishement from the skilled fighter.

    As they should be for a PRO boxer.

    Perfect example recently comes with Froch over Taylor.

    Taylor had the skill. Froch had the will.

    Getting knocked out when you're shot doesn't mean you can't take a punch. The dude had like 45 fights and was the best fighter in the sport for years before getting k.o.'d. I guess Neither Hopkins or toney can punch either huh since he beat them both in his prime. A fighter with no chin doesn't beat HOF's like that.

    Okay okay......so let me get this straight.

    When ya'll play Fight Night Round 3, Career Mode, ya'll don't increase power, speed, or agility, but you put all your points in CHIN?

    Be ****in real.

    What mother ****er does that ****?

    Have tremendous reflexes or tremendous countering/defensive ability and you can worry a little bit less about how good you can take a punch.

    yes, that will help if you have a bad chin, but it is boxing "the truth will find you in the ring"
