    Of course I'm aware that chin isn't the most important factor that makes a fighter great.But they are important, and rather imposible to improve by training

    Wlad, Roy Jones Jr showed that without granite chin you can be awesome , great and destructive fighter.But you must be aware of your chin


    Speed , so important in defence skills can gone with age.Then sometimes, only chin matters

    In the past: Marvin Hagler,Sugar Ray Robinson, Julio Cesar Chavez or Hector Camacho

    I say as below

    1.Tomasz Adamek
    2.Vitali Klitchko
    3.Erik Morales

    Glen Johnson, Arthur Abraham, Antonio Margarito(assuming it's still the same), Vitali, Librado Andrade, Arreola, Rodrigo Guerrero all come to mind.

    Underrated-Mikkel Kessler, and from the very recent past Julio Cesar Gonzalez.

    Beat me to it...

    I don't think Pacquiao and Pavlik have good cheens, just great tenacity (and Pac maneuvers out of danger quickly).
    I think Adamek has great stamina and recovery, but not actual one-punch cheen. :bbb

    I think Clottey's chin is overrated.

    I like Glen Johnson, Margo, Andrade, Morales.

    Yes he did.

    Only stopped by Roy Jones Jr. on cuts.

    He took some absolute bombs from Tavoris Cloud in his final fight, couldn't believe he didn't hit the canvas once in that fight.
