Post who you think has the best chin.

I think "the pocket rocket"'s resume speaks for itself.

Mcullough (http://boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=004985)

Klitschko, Toney, & Hopkins..

Mayorga
Toney
Morales

Morales

Mayorga's chin and kidney has been exposed..

Mayorga's chin and kidney has been exposed..

That's not really fair to Mayorga. He was well above the weight he should fight at, and took more than anyone else 160 or less could have taken. I'll give you the kidney.

Ricardo Mayorga has great chin , he took alot Tito shots (who is morderous puncher) and finaly goes down in the 8 by punch to the body. He fought in 160 first time in his career , I can't see anyone in 160 (including Hopkins)who was be able to took so many punches like Mayorga did

Erik Morales has great chin too

Tyson
Mayorga
Yson took alot of punches from Lewis

Mayorga's chin and kidney has been exposed..

i thought it was you(could be wrong) that said the term "exposed" was overused on this board...so maybe you're kidding with that comment?

only thing exposed about Mayorga's chin is when he exposed it, then asked(told) Trinidad, "please throw that vaunted left hook twice to my chin."

Klitschko (that uppercut that Lewis nailed him with would have sent most heavie's heads into lampley's lap)
Hopkins

Oliver McCall and Wayne McCullough. Never been floored and never looked like being floored!

Oliver McCall and Wayne McCullough. Never been floored and never looked like being floored!

MCcullogh, is the only fighter I have ever seen that can eat a big straight punch, and not even blink. Mcall blinks, because he has tears in his eyes!!

Klitschko, Toney, & Hopkins..


i second that

Mayby Marion Wilson? I know he's a bum , but just look http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=004537

Ross Purity has granite chin too , fought with all , never on the canvas too

Damn, that guy is a tank!

Thats crazy, he's fought some big punchers I might add.

(nothing has been exposed from mayorga come on,goind that many rounds plus that heart,considering it was hi first fight at a weight he doesnt belong at)...in no particular order
1-Hopkins
2-Mayorga
3-Morales
4-Margarito
5-toney
---also fighter that u cant ko by only one punch:Mosley,Kostya,Tarver,Toney,Vitali,MAB,Gatti,

after seeing Mayorga getting pummeled, but still in it, I put him on the list. also gonna go for barrera & morales as well after all the punches traded in their wars.

I said that?

Toney
Morales
Klitschko
Hopkins
McCullough

It's definitely the pocket rocket, especially a few years back when he faced Morales it was crazy. Morales pounded on his head like a drummer obviously hurt him a few times (would have dropped and stopped most fighters) and wayne just kept on comin. He might not have the pop but he is a warrior.

The fact that 'The Pocket Rocket' keeps getting mentioned (and deservedly so), and has been considered as posessing a good chin for a while now, is perhaps an indication that his toughness and heart may soon (if not already) become detrimental to his health. It's time to retire Wayne...

can't forget good ole corely..he has a great chin.

Tua
Klitschko
Toney
Hopkins
Morales
Chi (there's a question mark, though)

I see a few Morales picks here.
Now that he is finished dealing with Pac....What do you folks think? Should he recieve more mention???

Why dont you go "own" the fights you downloaded.
Then "Own-load" them so that your ratio is not a complete whackjob.

You people are completely overlooking the best chin in the game!

Uh Mickey Ward??? Arturo Gatti?? Naseem Hamed??

Wake up fellas, these guys had unbelievable chins.

I wouldn't say Gatti chin is the best. He gets hurt alot it's just his will that won't let him go down.

erik morales never been knock down in 50 professional fights

Officially Morales was knocked down in the first Barrera fight but it wasn't really a knockdown.

Erik Morales hands down

Officially Morales was knocked down in the first Barrera fight but it wasn't really a knockdown.

that's why a personally don't count that one as a knock down :rolleyes:

Golota

Tyson

Golota

Toney

Tyson
ok so that has got to be a joke, golota who was knocked out in a round against lewis, and tyson who has been knocked out 4 times in his career :confused:

Golota



Tyson

Are you being serious?

Golota's chin is made of fine glass, and Tyson's is not much better.

wTF.

YOu should actually watch the Golota vs Tyson fight. In that fight Tyson landed possibly the hardest punch I have ever seen him land square on Golota's head. Golota got right back up from it and won the following round. Then he quit, which at the time seemed inexplicable. But he had a neck fracture or skull fracture or something. They even show Tyson's corner as Golota is walking off and Tyson says "I hurt him."

About the Lewis fight, lets see you take an injection of Vicadin straight into the veign or just swallow 4 vicadin then go out there and fight lennox Lewis.

Morales and Mayorga have to have the best chins out there, with Hopkins right behind them. I would sat that Pacman has a great chin to after those shots that morales gave him.

Golota got right back up from it and won the following round. .

That is a measure of heart.

Not chin.

if he had a good chin, he would Not be on the Canvas

el terrible

McCullough, McCall, Morales, and Castillo

have the best chins in boxing. bar none.

all of Castillo's losses result of a cut. Never knocked down, or out in a fight legitimately.

Ironically, 2 are nicknamed "el terrible".

I agree with u about their chins though.

[/SIZE]

No it is not a measure of Heart, it is indeed a measure of chin. Because he took Tyson's best punch, a punch so hard it injured the bones in his neck and skull and got up from it right away not out on his feet or anything. If he take that punch he can take any punch.

castillo's chin will be exposed may 7th, corrales is gonna check that chin big time

If he take that punch he can take any punch.

Tyson hit Lewis with the hardest left hook I have ever seen him throw. Lewis barely stumbled and regained his poise. Are you saying Lewis' chin is granite?

What you refer to never happened, Tyson never landed any super firepower against Lewis in their fight. If he did Lewis would be out for the count. that is Lewis' weakness, he chin is not the best he has been taken out by one punch by both McCall and Rahman. I have seen the Tyson Lewis Fight, Tyson in that fight never landed any kind punch remotely resembling the punch he landed on Golota, like I said if he did Lewis would be sleeping in the hospital.

mckay the thread is about who has the best chin, golota has been down and been knocked out, you can't compare him to guys like mcCall who has never even been close to being knocked down, tua is ahead of him as well and about 20 others

David Tua or Morales.

If Lewis took the punch Golota took from Tyson or any other figher practially in teh world they would be out cold, but Golota got right back up from it, in total coherency even though the punch injured his skull and neck bones. That is why I say Golota has a top notch chin.

Golota was KO'd once, that was by Lewis and he was doped up, took a vicadin injection straight in the veign.

golota was destroyed by lewis in one round, he was stumbling all over the place, bowe knocked his ass down as well, tyson dropped him also, you are crazy

golota was destroyed by lewis in one round, he was stumbling all over the place, bowe knocked his ass down as well, tyson dropped him also, you are crazy

Golota was stoned off his ass in Lewis fight that is clearly visible to anybody that has 2 properly functioning eyeballs. Against Tyson he took Tyson's best punch and got up from it in total coherency, he quit because that punch injured his skull and neck bones, against Bowe he knockdown but only by a barrage of something in the order of 15 or 20 over hand rights and uppercuts, and when Bowe knocked him down he got up and knocked Bowe down in the following round.

So you are officially debunked there buddy

you are a total jackass dude, seriously, how the **** would YOU know if golota was stoned for that fight? please man, he got knocked the **** out!, i saw tyson hit holyfield with punches just as hard as the one he hit golota with and he didnt drop, stop making excuses, a guy cant have "a great chin" and be knocked out and down like that, sorry pal you're just plain wrong

How do I tell if Golota was stoned, the question is how do you not tell if he was stoned, it was clearly visible to anybody with 2 clearly functioning eyeballs, you are obviously deficient in this capacity not to notice.

Erik Morales looks stoned in every single picture I have ever seen of him. Look at the one on H.B.O. boxing, his eyes are glazed and red as hell. Never seemed a deterrent for his "brave efforts".

Morales is no example because we know how Golota looks when he is normal and it was clear in that fight he was screwed up.

yes but he wasn't swrewed up for his other fights was he? the guy has been down and knocked out end of story, he is way down the list of best chins, you sound almost as desperate as tyson fans

Golota gets up in total coherency from a punch from Mike Tyson that is so hard is injures the bones in his neck and skull and wins the next round and you want to say he has a weak chin. alright whatever, continue to live in your delusion land, its cool with me.

what are you a drug enforcement agent? or a cop or something, did you check to see if his pupils were dialated? golota is a quitting glass jawed former steroid using freak, the only thing he was on was roids for the lewis fight and that didnt get him anywhere but kayoed pal

Golota has been "knocked down and out" once in his entier career, by Lennox Lewis, and it been proven by a Nevada court that he was intoxicated by Muscle Relaxer Vicadin or something similar before the bout. I will take the word the Nevada court on the issue before yours.

Your allegation against Golot are based on nothing but pure fantasy both points I have made have been proven. Golota's neck was fractured by from the punch he took from the Tyson, It has also been proven by a Nevada court that Golota was intoxicated before the Lewis fight by the Doctor in the Locker room. Golota won the lawsuit against him. All the facts are on my side. All you have is fancifull emotional allegations.

i dont even dislike golota, he just doesnt have the best chin around today, ive seen him take some good shots but he has hit the canvas before, and what kind of an idiot would get f'd up on vicadin before a championship bout tht is the dumbest thing i ever heard

The worst chin goes to Roy Jones Jr. The best are Erik Morales, David Tua and Oscar. Oscar has never been knocked out from a hit to the chin and hes only fought the toughest fighters of all the boxers. Oscars chin is underated

Morales, Hopkins, Pacquiao, Mayorga

Pacquiao

LmFao. Oh man. These just keep getting more and more juicy.

wtf. Are you friends with the Golota guy?

The worst chin goes to Roy Jones Jr. The best are Erik Morales, David Tua and Oscar. Oscar has never been knocked out from a hit to the chin and hes only fought the toughest fighters of all the boxers. Oscars chin is underated

Just a couple of questions to all of you.

1. How do you define "good chin":
a) The ability to take ANY good punch without ANY visible reaction?
b) The stunning/eye puffing/cuts/bone cracks are acceptable until the guy don't hit the canvas?
c) He can even hit the canvas from single (or even multiple) puch but stood up without noticeable change in the boxing game.

**************************************
If you accept only the point a) then I'm sure you not find any boxer who has a "good chin" :fingersx: .

*************************************
If you accept b) then you have to simply count only guys who were never doropped down. There is a few of them around (maybe Vitali K, Morales) ?

But you have to exclude Tyson (multiple KO's by single punch) :spank: , Golota (down by MULTIPLE combinations in Bowie & Grant, down by one punch by Tyson, KOed by Levis after multiple punching) :chairshot . You have to exclude also Ali because he smell the canvas (by Frazier), Foreman (KOed by Ali). Not mention Levis, Holmes (TKO by Tyson), Holyfield (multiple downs and TKOs), Packman, Jones, Toney been down in Jones fight. For me this is a little crazy, because this realy depend on who did you fought and what punches you have got. You cannot compare the oposition of DLH with oposition of Levis, Holyfield or Tyson
(in terms of punching or KO power).

***************************************
If you accept c) then Golota's downs with Bowie, Grant, Tyson do not count and Levis KO could be "justified" by a medical condition he was received before fight (being relaxed as a cow after injection).

While Tyson was down by Wiliams after the knee injury :nutkick: , then in Levis and Douglas he cannot by excused, so his chin is below Golotas. While Golota chin is way above Frazier, Tyson, Levis, he is below Ali, Holmes, Foreman. Maybe somehow comparable to Bowie (proved 2x) or Holyfield.
****************************************

2. I think you should realize that the "chin" is something you posses, while the punching power depend on the weight, speed and punch accuracy. For example Toney chin was very good before but he did not faced the good heavyweight boxers yet. After he moved up to HW, his power increased but his chin stayed preety the same, so his "good chin" will be verified very soon. As the second example you can see Wlad Klitchko, chis chin was excelent before he faced good puncher in Sanders, after that he become a classic "glass chin" example.

This also mean that one clear shot from heavyweight boxer is doing much bigger damage than one clear shot from middlewieght. That the power of Tyson and Foreman was increadible while Packman is just a small "joke". This mean you can find more "good chins" in the lower weights. Also Vitali Klitcho's chin could be much better than Morales counting the hard punches he received .

IMHO, erik morales ...

Of course it’s Morales, Ross Purity, Oliver Mccall, Mayorga and Valuev.
Klitchko shouldn’t be here. That uppercut shaked him a lot, but it was simply the short punch of a fat tired Lennox. Klitchko will fall soon. As soon as he meet well shaped fighter with a heart.

Another thing about Golota he had over 111 total wins and I dont know how many total fights, in all his amateur bouts he was never stopped or I dont think ever even knocked down. He was actually stopped once in the 1988 seoul Olympics silver medal match but that was on a cut. But he was never even knocked down as amateur in over 111 fights, or tko or ko'd.

mckay the amatuers is nothing like the pro's they have head gear on, the guy has been knocked out, he's just a loser, he's not the best at anything, except maybe being the best at losing fights he should have won

Still most fighters are stopped several times if they are the type of the fighter that has like 130 amateur bouts, or at least knocked down.

For a stoppage to be called in the amateurs all you have to do is be out on your feet for a couple seconds and they stop it.

look golota might have a decent chin, he might even have an above average chin, but this thread is about who has the BEST chin and golota is nowhere near the top of the list, as i've said before McCall, tua, the journeyman marion wilson, larry donald, and many many more have a better chin than golota, and that's just the heavyweights

who can eat a flush push like Kassim Ouma? Did you see him against Jantuah?

The worst chin goes to Roy Jones Jr. The best are Erik Morales, David Tua and Oscar. Oscar has never been knocked out from a hit to the chin and hes only fought the toughest fighters of all the boxers. Oscars chin is underated



I COULD BE WRONG BUT DIDNT OSCAR GET FLOORED BY QUARTEY?

Nobody ate more big punches then Corrie Sanders without going down.

i think he was knocked out by rahman wasn't he? i remember it being a good fight

i think he was knocked out by rahman wasn't he? i remember it being a good fight

The fight agaisnt Rhaman got stopped, also the fight against Vitali, but he never went down or got knocked out.

yep but oscar got up without wobbling, i think we have to clearly define a good chin, or glass jaw or what ever. If you take a clean shot flush on the jaw/temple going down is only natural. Now getting up on wobbly legs, stagering around the ring that'll let me know what kind of chin you have.

I don't think a good chin should be judged by "never been knocked down/out." This has more to do with overall boxing skills and not chin. I determine a good chin based on the amount of punishment a boxer can sustain to the head before he goes down. I've seen the following heavyweights take a serious beating before they went out, or not..

Wililams
Brewster
Sanders
Jirov
Tua
Toney - yet to be seen in heavyweight devision.

Tszyu, De La Hoya, Morales, Barrera, Pacquiao, Gatti - All have excellent chins!

REally good post. Keep it up.

Ricardo Mayorga
Jose Luis Castillo
Wayne McCullough

who can eat a flush push like Kassim Ouma? Did you see him against Jantuah?

He is another candidate for having one of the best chins in boxing. One of the resons why I say so: Is because of his fighting style. There is nothing secretive about how he tries to overwhelm fighters with punches. He does use lateral movement, but then again: He stands and trades alot. Look at some of the punchers he has faced:

Jantuah
Woods
Bojoroquez
Candelo
Hernandez (arguable)

Not necessarily all HARD punchers (except Jantuah) but mostly effective at landing and "Picking shots". He takes flush punches and does not even blink. He also gets hit as much as any fighter in his weight class with the exception of Teddy Reid.

vitali klitschko :)

I take back my statement that Golota has a top notch chin, but his chin is underrated. Top chins are Tyson,Tua,Jirov,Toney,Danny Williams, Corrie Sanders of South Africa. Vitali Klistchko has a pretty decent chin as well. Riddick Bowe.

I say Toney has the best chin because in his entire career he has never been seriously hurt in any fight and he has only been knocked down once and that was because he clowning againt Roy Jones and got caught off Balance while acting like a moron.

Morales is definitely in the uppr echelons of the best chins in the sport

That is one reason Toney has a chance to succeed at heavyweight his ability to take punches is ferocious and he is hard as hell to hit without getting hit back.

I don't like Toney one bit but I have to agree that aside from his great defense and counterpunching, his chin is topnotch.

In no particular order:

Oscar
Morrales
Margarito
Castillo
Ouma
Winky
Hopkins
Chi
Pac (although he has been KO'd)
Tzyu (same as above)
C. Sanders
Librado Andrade (not really been tested as of yet, but from what I have seen so far)
Arce

This is just in my opinion who I think should be included in the list.

Oscar has a under rated chin :)

I can't believe no one has mentioned Jeff Lacy yet...that guy has no defense - he doesn't care if you hit him, because it's not going to phase him
