    Not a tossup. Margarito slowed down against Clottey and was hurt by him at times until Clottey hurt his hand. Andrade just never seems to even feel punches. He's like a caveman or something.

    LMAO @ Mayorga, that's a joke right. He was knocked out by both Oscar and Shane Mosley.

    Andrade easily has the best chin. I've seen Margarito stunned several times before. No one else could have walked through the shots Andrade took from Kessler.

    For me it has to be Kelly pavlik .... how did he stay up against Jermaine taylor when he was out for the count then had a breather and came back and outclassed Taylor.... then the shots he took against Hopkins a naturally bigger fighter when he wasnt 100% but still he came forward and Hoppo couldnt put him down ... he can punch too ! alround a great fighter who will come again and dominate the middle weight division ....

    I think he took that powershot on his forehead. He pretty much absorbes anything with his chin. Andrade has a amazing chin and also recovers well. Calzaghe has a good chin and recovers well.

    Havn't seen the other guys mentioned so I'll go with Andrade :bbb

    Ages ago I saw Søren Søndergård fighting a mexican guy. The mexican took every powerpunch right in the face and ended up looking like gound beef but nothing stopped him. Between last 4 rounds Søndergård sat in his corner complaining that his hands hurt badly from smashing the other guys face in and he was afraid that he would not make it thru. In the end he got a deserved UD but it was the day I learned to fear mexicans

    It was not a balance/flash knockdown.

    McCall also went the full 12 with Frank Bruno, who was perhaps in the top 5 of hardest punchers in the last 30 years of heavyweight boxing.

    Chris Eubank was also worth a mention, took all the best shots from Nigel Benn in two fights and only slipped once (it wasn't a legitimate KD).
