    there's nothing happening to him and he's still coming to you. So, who should be that indestructible fighter in your opinion?

    Mariusz Wach! No question!

    Following him would be Ruslan Provodnikov, Gennady Golovkin, Vitali Klitschko, Denis Lebedev and etc.

    Most of the others have very good defense like James Toney. So their chin isn't as tested as often. Of course, James Toney has a great chin and a defense. But his great defense minimizes the amount of clean punches he takes.

    However, those who've never been down but also don't have the best defense like Mariusz Wach, Ruslan Provodnikov and etc. I tend to pick them to be at the very top.

    hmm i still remember when Canelo hit GGG with that massive right hand, it twisted GGG whole body, ripped his head round. And the guy soaked it up and stepped forward again !! I watched it and just shook my head, I wonder what Khan was thinking when he seen that shot land and GGG walk through it.

    Maybe in his sleep, which commenced shortly after the residual impact from that punch knocked him out again.

    Great list! I should have put them into my list above. How could I forget Ruslan Provodnikov? He's the fittest in this type of the fighter.

    Oliver McCrackin' at heavyweight, followed by guys like Tua, Mercer, Toney etc. Toney's probably the freakiest jaw I've seen at heavyweight considering he originally moved up from middleweight. Ridiculous ability to soak up punishment. Guillermo Jones deserves a mention too. I believe he originally started at Welterweight, which is just insane.

    Currently Rudenko and Wach have the best jaws at HW, but Wach reminds me of a heavyweight Margarito in his ability to take shots. I fear some day soon he's going to receive his Shane Mosley moment and get brutally KOed. He's already been hurt and stopped in fights before, albeit he's yet to go down.

    Parker's still a bit of a question mark.

    yup the above poster made a good point about picking guys with poor defence or lower skill level that can take punishment.

    In this regard you could look to Dave Allen, the fury team were once quoted that the only way to knock Dave Allan down is with a baseball bat !!

    In fairness, GGG rolled part of that punch

    I've never really seen Provodnikov take a step back, so he has to be up there. Oliver McCall too, of course. Hopkins actually had a really solid chin too, thinking about it.

    Has to be GGG. And until he gets stopped I’ve no reason to think otherwise.
    Valdez albeit at a lower weight class is fast becoming this kinda boxer although he’s taking too much punishment for my liking,guess you could put Rungvisai in the same boat
