    Ali went down twice aswell, doesn't mean he didn't have an iron jaw.

    As far as I know Ali went down at least 3 times. Against Cooper (in wich he was effectively out and needed to cheat), Wepner and Frazier...
    But I get our point.
    Though as I say in an earlier post I can't possibly see him stay upright against what Martinez dished out over 11½ rounds against Chavez.

    Martinez is a blown up WW. He doesn't hit close to as hard as Kessler or Pascal and Froch took bombs off both.

    How has he not? He's fought loads of power punchers.

    Even Groves is a significant power puncher.

    proven in the ring by punchers they fought against, it's cleary Froch. His resume says as such at the elite level.

    Chavez clearly seems to have a good chin, although he hasn't been bombed at by the elite level. Sergio can hit, but he's not a bomber.

    Golovkin there is nothing to really prove he does or doesn't on his resume yet.

    :good Froch chin is overrated. Who is the pure puncher he fought? Ward? Taylor?

    Chavez gets dropped for the first time in his career and now I'm sure the simple minded virtual trash on here will say he has no chin. :lol:. Vote definitely goes to Froch but to rate them from 1 to 3 it goes like this. 1) Froch 2) Chavez Jr. 3) Golovkin. Golovkin has fought absolute no one to be rated above either Froch or Chavez.
