Best or most shocking examples of great chins being.....

[likeamulekick]

......broken by scary power. Or vice versa (Scary power eaten up by ridiculous chins.) Also what great fantasy matches could this apply to?

Duran's one weren't really shocking though since he got dropped clean by Esteban De Jesus at lightweight.
How the hell was he gonna survive a 154 pounder Hearns.

This was the first fight that popped into my head.Brutal brutal display of power that right hand was,a thing of beauty.

Duran's known for having one of the best chins in boxing history and seeing him get sparked by one shot even if it's by Hearns is shocking for sure. Nobody else has done that to him, not even when he was ancient fighting at the higher weights.

Thought this thread might have been about boxers "lost" their great chin after being sparked ?

If not

Foster-Tiger.

The Nigerian was admittedly above his best weight and not equally as tank’ish and undentable as he was down at middle, but it still required a monster with freaky-deaky power and huge physical advantages to crack him.

Carter-Griffith might qualify as well. Not broken per se, but the only stoppage loss in his prime. Depends whether you rate Carter’s power as “scary” I guess. Griffith’s mandibles can’t be seen as nothing less than excellent/great or whatever you want to call it IMO.

I see that NChristo beat me to Foster-Tiger.

Oh well...
