    Despite getting knocked down, Froch took bombs and loads of them tonight. A few made me cringe!

    Is his the best chin in boxing right now?

    Taylor is not the banger to merit Froch's chin granite. IMO
    dude can take a shot no doubt...

    Now Penalosa, He has defo made the list tonight.

    Andrade has the best chin. Froch got knocked down by a middleweight.,

    Taylor was barely catching him flush and he put him down.

    Froch did take that squared right hand just prior swimmingly, but he was hurt mulitiple occasions. Froch has a good chin, but it's much better against D class fighters.

    taylor is a very underestimated puncher, taylor wobbled and put down pavlik, where the lhw hopkins couldnt even though he landed 5 times the amount taylor did. Frochs chin is up there, but i dont think we can really say its p4p the best

    andrade's chin is much better, its not even close. froch has a "solid" chin.

    penalosa and andrade both have better chins in my opinion. they are insane.
     
  11. a flash knock down doesn't diminish a guys chin.... it's about how quickly he comes back, and in Frochs case his head was clear by the 2 count

    Andrade has the BEST chin in the sport period.

    Yes, a flash knockdown DOES diminish a guys chin.

    Tell me though, what makes you consider that a "flash knockdown" anyway?

    Froch has a great chin. The way he got rocked before the knockdown and the way he went down I thought the fight was over.

    But he actually doesn't have the best chin in his own division. Andrade does.

    Frankly Pascal had froch realing a few times in there fight as well.

    I would say that Froch determination makes his chin look better then it actually is.
