    There is alot of talk about Bradley's chin.
    What is the cleanest punch he has taken?
    Is it possible for this guy to get knocked out?

    of course he can get knocked out. he was basically tko'd twice vs prov.
    his chin is not one of his strong attributes but, his conditioning, will and heart keep him going.

    check holt round 2 prov round 1 or 2 and round 12. he was completely defenseless in round 12, lucky round ended. most refs would have halted the fight in round 1 were he did way way way worse than the judah shuffle.

    he couldnt get up, as bad as montel vs jr fight 2

    Thats a good point. Is there glass guts out there in fighters?
    My feeling is Bradley has guts of iron.
    I have yet to see his last fight however.

    he was seriously wobbled by ruslan a couple of times. he looked ready to go in one of them. but, he does havegood recovery skills though

    He was dropped by a big left hook by Holt in the first but recovered well.

    He also got hurt, I think dropped again, in the final rd.

    Bradley suffered one of the hardest KD's that DIDN'T end a fight in recent memory against Holt.

    Excellent chin.

    Average initial resistance + supreme recovery = excellent overall chin.

    Similar to JMM.

    No, chin and body are totally separate entities. Look at a guy like RJJ, glass chin, but how many body shots have you seen him get knocked down by? When have you ever seen him hurt to the body period?

    Margarito had an iron chin, but could be hurt to the body.

    Many examples of both, bottom line is they are totally separate entities.
