    I would expect Ali to be in the top ten at least. He took flush shots from some of the hardest hitting heavyweights of all time in a very tough era.

    Carmen Basilio is perpetually underrated, so it's nice to see him make this list. Rocky is not top 3 though.

    Wayne McCullough has the best chin I've ever seen. The punishment he could absorb was nothing short of freakish.

    James Toney has to be in any top 10 IMO. Not many have proved their whiskers like a middleweight fighting at cruiser and heavy (in the era of huge heavys).
