    What about vitali klits, never been down (even if yeah the guys he took on aint been top draw), and maybe ray mercer, tjhe fight against tommy morrison was awesome, tommy was really hitting him hard till he got destroyed, lots of lesser guys would have been long gone before then

    ^^^But he got knocked down at super middle and this is a debate about the greatest chin of all time. And to be fair, James Toney at Heavyweight has a fair number of chins acting as a headguard!

    Thats a valid point, though I don't think Toney has a legendary chin I think its just the way he fights and he is hard to hit flush. Great defensive, maybe not greatest chin

    You are correct I completely missed that. I did a search for the word "Toney" to prevent this but never considered someone mentioned him by his nickname :D

    Also very true but I think he took enough flush to prove his chin despite that. You can't completely prevent that from happening in 82 fights.

    tru say I was more thinking of great chin in more of a brawler sense but u cant deny a man whos had 82 fights and stood tall in most if not all
