    How good do you rate Golovkins chin 1-5? He is never hurt, always sees the punches coming and doesn't mind to take couple of shots in order to land one.

    Golovkin has tissue paper thin glass chin. Even little Brook wobbled him and made him lose that smirk with a quickness.
    Believe me, Golovkin is a KO waiting to happen.

    Golovkin (*may) have a great chin. We have never seen him fight a bigger man or a big hitter has never clubbed him but the hits he has taken he stood tall against. Stevens hit him pretty good and GG turned up the pressure to get Stevens out of there before he gained any more confidence. I wanna see someone with a chin and heart just swarm him to see how he reacts.

    The only thing that makes me question GGG is when his opponents land combos. When those combos land he seems to just freeze up. I was at the Monroe fight and specifically remember those rounds where Monroe landed and GGG stood there with the high guard.

    Pressure bust pipes. No one has ever reversed the situation and bullied the bully. We need someone with the heart that Ricky Hatton had against Tszyu. All heart, running head first into a known KO artist like he punched like baby

    He has a great chin but really needs to stop using it. As a boxing fan I don't need to see the fighter I support take a bunch to the face to enjoy the fight.

    How dare you question the Triple God, his chin was forged in the mountainous regions of Siberia, under the supervision of A revived cyborg Stalin with funding from Vladimur Putin and his billionaire Friend Igor Sechin, his chin is a success, and he will use his chin to demoralize enemies and shatter glass fists impacting against it.

    Good chin. Hes been hit by some ok shots from big punchers.... has only been slightly wobbled once to my knowledge, early in his career.

    Not sure how he would react to speed based power or a good counter punch, (meaning, power shots that land without him seeing them)

    He should probably hope fans dont find out the answers to those... but will be interesting to see if his chin would hold up.

    Anyways, I rate it as solid.

    Nice post! So far we see ggg can take any shots to the head that he see and prepared for. But it's probably hard to see him take surprise counter punch as he is a stalker with chin and power, he rarely come in reckless ala Pac. Normally put the opponent in defensive mood.

    Prob is a lot guys know if try swarm him they will prob get hurt and hurt badly. M Murray isn't best fighter by any means but is a pretty hard man same rosado and he basically took ther spirit and confidence away
