best chin this century so far?

Had glass ribs tho

 

Toney kissed the canvas vs rjj

 

This is about chins, sir.
That kd had nothing to do with mandibles.

 

I haven't seen BHop get hit with as many hard punches as Oscar and keep throwing without backing away as though they're nothing.
..but that's a compliment too for BHop.

 

James Toney although he has been down I only recall him being rattled once. Going all the way up to heavyweight and never being ko'ed at his age is nothing short of amazing.

 

No Vitali Klitschko? I am disappointed.

 

I see some guys mentioned Oliver McCall. That gets a thumbs up from me too. Ross Puritty, anybody?

 

of that list its Provo is proven the toughest chin followed by GGG as he apparently has not been dropped ever. Marg and Morales got KO'd viscously although both by serious punchers so they should both get a pass/props. Marquez and De La Hoya should have been on this poll as they are some tough SOB's, tough as nails and recovered from knock downs almost instantly. if the SMW division had tougher guys at the time when Froch was considered in the top 3 he would not be on this list imo, Taylor dropped him and almost had him out, it took him ages to recover, Groves dropped him bad with punch that was thrown from barley a foots distance and he didn't recover until mid way through the fight. he's lucky the smw division wasn't filled with talented finishers

 

Probably Provo from that list

 

Matthysse is in my opinion the hardest puncher in boxing and is at least one of the hardest. He did box and didn't commit so much vs Provodnikov, but still landed some of the bombs that knocked out Peterson and so many others. Provo's chin is legit concrete.

The comparison should come down to what guys who were never hurt or knocked out took clean punches by the harder punchers. Toney and Hopkins had great defence and avoided getting hit cleanly. When can you recall either getting hit square on the chin by a hard puncher with no effect? Mayorga I think managed to take punches that he could see, but when he was touched right by hooks he couldn't see coming by both Tito and Oscar he was badly hurt and out of it. Oscar was knocked down against Quartey, but that was a well-timed shot as Oscar was coming in and while he was stunned wasn't too badly hurt. He took some hard shots against a lot of other guys and kept fighting, but other than Tito did he face an A level puncher? I don't really think so. I think Mosley's chin was a bit better. He took as many clean punches from Oscar as he gave, and Oscar's the harder puncher. It was an uppercut from hell with all his weight behind it that Forrest knocked him down with, and that he got up and lasted 12 shows how solid his chin was. And past his prime he wasn't hurt and lasted 12 despite taking a beating against a big, strong young puncher in Canelo.

 

Ridiculous poll; no Fenix Ruiz?
