    I hear you but I'm not talking about how his face looked. I'm talking about the number of heavy shots he took. He took more heavy shots than he has ever taken in his life.

    I hear you too, but I'm saying he took some hellacious blows in that fight as well especially the last 4-5 rounds. That was crazy what Peterson laid on him and he still managed to keep coming. Garcia definitely buzzed quite a bit of times in that fight. God that was horrific.

    There may be lingering effects from Thurman's punches, but I never really saw any kind of buckling or any kind of scene where I thought he was going to get laid out.

    But my point is, Garcia's chin honestly is insane.

    He takes crazy blows from his opponents and he just keeps coming.

    Peterson has no where near the punching power of Keith Thurman and he wasn't putting it on Danny like Thurman did. Yeah Thurman shook his ass and it wasn't his chin that kept him up but his legs.

    Spence is the only welter i think would do it.

    But all great chins crack... Danny has taken a lot of good shots... the erosion is happening.

    His chin is unreal, but Thurman came very close to sending him to the canvas at the end of the 1st.

    He does not, Keith hits harder but it's really not as big as I first thought tbh.

    I think Danny's punch resistance is off the charts, like Kirk said erosion could be happening , but his chin is battle tested, extremely sturdy. Never knocked down once in his career against those punchers, says a lot tbh.

    Who can knockdown DSG?

    Probably a couple of fighters..
    Flash knockdowns happen all the time in boxing . All it takes is the right punch at the right time. Any fighter can get put down in a blink of an eye.

    Hes taken massive shots from the likes of Holt, Matthysse, Judah, Thurman, ect... his chin is one of the best in the game.

    Him taking that flush powerbomb from Matthysse late in the fight that sent his mouthpiece flying was one of the best displays of a chin Ive seen in the last 5 years.

    Garcia does have a solid iron chin.
