    Juan "Fenix" Ruiz. I've spoken about him at length on here. Maybe the best p4p chin of the last 20-30 years.

    (afaik, never down once in 344 rounds - and fought almost exclusively as the B-side against prospects...even held a few to an occasional MD or SD)

    George "Scrap Iron" Johnson.

    George Foreman on who had the best chin - "I hit him so often that I damaged my hands in that fight. He had taken “Smokin” Joe Frazier the distance and had the best chin I’d ever come across. They stopped the fight but I couldn’t get him out of there cleanly. I still haven’t knocked him out (laughs)."

    Low class was the wrong word. But his chin outshines every other quality of his by far, I would say.

    Describing an iron-jawed fighter or at least one who has well above average punch resistance as ''low class'' is like describing someone who has just bought a brand new Rolls Royce as owning an old banger

    A good chin is the #1 physical attribute any fighter can be blessed with and everything else is secondary

    Glass-jawed fighters are vermin
