    The real answers are that both are probably unknowns.

    When I used to live there, I knew a guy in a gym in New Jersey who was a holy terror on the bags. But if you barely touched him with a glove he went down like he was chinned by a cannon ball.

    At the same gym there was this guy, who I swear seemed like you could hit him with a baseball bat and it would have no effect. He couldn't fight worth a darn, though. If you watched him go 3 rounds with the heavy bag, you'd be tempted to call it a draw. Neither guy ever amounted to anything in boxing.

    I'm sure there were many similar guys in history.

    Chris Eubank and Steve Collins both had decent beards.

    weakest chin we probably never heard of the guy, but strongest chin? Probably Hagler. I cannot imagine anyone taking the punches he did with Hearns or Mugabi. He fought two of the hardest punchers in middleweight history and took both their best. Taking on of those guys punches is good,but both was impressive. Hearns did wobble him but he didn't go down.

    Ali and Larry both deserve mentions in terms of tip top iron chins.

    As for glass jaws they seem to be ten a penny if you read some of the posters on ESB. Every other fighter is china chinned it would seem!

    For me some of the weakest chins are Michael Grant and Clifford Ettienne as far as heavy weights go
