    shannon briggs- beats them all
    :good

    hard to say......any of them been knocked out cold? no.....anyone takin a beating by a big puncher and wasnt counted out? cotto....
    hopkins being a technical boxer, very seldom gets hit flush....but has been down 2 times in 1 fight, but that was 15 years ago...... its really a weird group to rate chins,,,,some are very young, and have not been chin checked. others have fought long careers but havent been stung with ferocicous blows by a ferocious puncher.

    how does kessler have such an iron rating? if you have 45 fights and 3 guys that maybe have decent power , "decent" power....iron chin should be subjected to what he has withstood in terms of the guys throwing punches at him.

    froch is no nigel benn in the power dept
    ward is a boxer
    haussler had 7 kos
    sartison had a 60% ko rating
    mundine had decent power but against c level fighters to that point
    calzaghe had 2 kos in last 9 fights going in (manfredo and veit)
    beyer had 13 kos in 35 fights

    jury would still be out , if you havent been cracked in the jaw by a puncher...iron is too early to say....

    Froch has got to be Iron surely? I don't like him but is there any evidence pointing to anything other than an iron chin?
