    Andrade was knocked out by a body shot so he should still probably be top 5. *See Kessler/Andrade fight for great example of iron chin.*

    He took Calvin Brock and Chris Bryd's best punches and went nowhere. He has the chin like Vitali, but with the heart of Ali.:good

    only reason he wasn't on the list is cuz of his early KO loss. He has taken some big shots from barrera-morales-marquez-cotto-margarito and took it. He has a pretty good chin. Not the best but pretty good.

    You should watch the fight Between Hagler and John "the Beast" Mugabi who came into that fight with a record of 26-1-25. Hagler took some flush shot from Mugabi without even being fazed.

    Mosley got a good chin, but I'm not sure it belongs in the mention with the iron chins of boxing.
    It really has'nt gotten tested from a huge puncher.

    Forrest almost had him out with uppecuts, and he was resilient in surviving that attack......but Mosley has'nt taken sustained hard punishment from a puncher or that huge shot that would have me saying, "wow what a chin."

    Take Adameks name of this list... Maybe at LH and Cruiser but at heavyweight i dont think much of his chin... Arreola didnt even hit him with his best shots and hurt him on at least 2 occasion. If Arreola was in shape he would have kod him, and although Arreola is a good puncher i wouldnt say hes a bomber.

    Why so many voting Kessler?

    I've not really seen him take many flush shots from a puncher. Thats surely how you would recognise an iron chin.
