    Sweet Christ. Hughie has a decent chin, but it looks like glass compared to a Chuvalo or a Tex Cobb. Oliver McCall out-chins Fury handily.

    Really? not seen him in many KO highlight reels, what a shame... video editors probably thought, nah only Serge would watch a Pulev KO and get a stiffy, we can't ignore the other 99% of fans.

    Meanwhile.... Whyte... every KO reel post 2018 -

    Maybe so, maybe not... all theory really? I bet Whyte could KO Muhammed Ali cold with a left hook. So what.

    While we're on the topic of who said who hits harder than who....

    Granite Chinned Samoan Parker - "Oh yeah Dillian hits really hard, with every shot, he hit me harder than AJ, much harder"

    Oh but I hear you thinking "well AJ never landed clean as Parker was moving so much" well Povetkin never landed clean because Hughie is always moving too much.

    Case closed,

    Aydamn wins

    Three way between Tex Cobb, Chuvalo and Oliver Mccall. Can't pick between the three

    Hughie has one of the best chins I've ever seen at heavyweight. Some of the punches he's taken and shaken off have just been insane. It'd probably take a nuclear bomb to even phase this guy to be perfectly honest.

    Hughie has already failed a ped test himself.

    Lennox Lewis couldn't put a dent in a McCall who just stood there crying with his hands at his sides.

    Yes and it’s not even debatable. George Chuvalo and Oliver McCall have nothing on him lol

    Shannon Briggs took the biggest beating I have seen at heavyweight at the hands of Vitali, the expression on Vitali’s face in between rounds he couldn’t believe that he kept coming and that the ref didn’t stop it. Not saying that he ranks in the all time list but that performance has to

    who cares. thats nothing to brag about. taking huge shots to the head is dangerous, can leave you with CTE, or even worse, death. it's better to have a glass chin.... a glass chin is kind of like a safety fuse LOL

    He's definitely got a good chin ... but best ever? Nah. Too many other guys around with ridiculous chins.

    I counted at least half a dozen bombs Povetkin detonated on Hughie's iron gypsy mandible that would've sparked Whyte out cold

    :risas3: Marion Wilson's chin was literally forged out of gypsy iron and he not only fought in a tougher era, fought way better competition than Parker, but he fought way more punchers and his chin>>>Parker's and it's not close so therefore his opinion>>>Parker's too

    Er.. except that Povetkin DID land clean on Hughie's iron gypsy mandible and Povetkin timed him and caught him with legit KO lights out shots and he still couldn't put him on his ass.
