The Greatest Chin of All-Time?

I was being sarcastic, but I didn't have the documents to proove it.

 

If you watch other MMA shows, you will see constant head kicks that do little damage. Like I said, in K-1, guys take head shots with ease. the reason Crocrop is so good is a combination of his actual power in the kick, and his ability to feint and time the kicks so the opponnt has a hard time reacting before it lands.

Whilst Hunt take that infamous kick is very impressive, he reacts to it before it lands. Other people Crocrop sent down to the mat for 5 minutes didn't.

Again, I'm not saying Hunt doesn't have a grade-A chin, but that kick isn't definitive proof of that.

 

**** how about James Toney? The guy came from middleweight and took some of the hardest blows a boxer could ever take at heavyweight. And did it twice!

 

Well in general, but not specifically, I think fighters who have never been down take precedence over ones who have.

 

George Foreman

 

He is certainly up there, its hard to tell when hes really hurt or not because he likes to play possum alot. The 2 times I seen him down were both balance issues, not him being hurt by an actual punch.

 

Johnson wasn't a balance issue though. He simply dropped him.

He wasn't hurt, but Toney could be dropped. Jones also stunned him at least once IMO. I know he did with a body shot, but thats not chin.

 

you might be right, havnt seen that fight in a while.

 

I edited and gave you a link. Toney doesn't look hurt though.

 

His balance has always been an issue, rarely hurt though. I watched both fights with him and Peter many times and still cant tell if he was genuinelly hurt or not, very hard to tell.

 

Jake LaMotta anybody?

 

Actually, Bruce Seldon had him hurt, but couldn't knock him down.

 

Really? Never saw that....will see if I can find some footage. I have never seen McCall blink at a punch.
