    Holyfield's at 10, he's there.

    However, it's hard to believe that Gatti is on this list while some fighters with far better chins than Gatti's (like James Toney) aren't.

    Joe Grim might have had the best chin ever.

    An unskilled middleweight and and shopworn from nearly 100 losses, it still took Sam McVea 13 rounds to KO him.

    Holyfield made it, but not Billy Graham, Kid Gavilan, Carlos Monzon, Juan LaPorte, or Wayne McCullough.

    It’s a fun clip but a bit all over the place. I do like the mention of Maxie *********.

    Yeah, a very subjective, inconclusive vid, but I too appreciate the Maxie Rosenbloom inclusion.
