No poll, just state your opinion. For me, I still think Mosley has one of the best chins i've ever seen, he's taken great punches from strong punchers and has only been down(at least as far as i can remember) against Forrest, and it didn't look like he was hurt so much as stuned. Even now when people say he's old and shot, he was able to take a lot of fast and hard shots from Mayweather for 10 of 12 rounds.
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Mikkel Kessler. Never been down AM or pro.
So Kessler, Vitali, SSM are good suggestions for best chin.
That is true, Kessler has an excellent chin. He made Andre Ward's best punches look like featherdusters and took Froch's too.
MANNY PACQUIAO vs COTTO...considering Manny going up the ladder and "manning it up" going mano y mano. Eating up COTTO's punches in the early rounds...
Does Cotto have a solid chin? I mean, he takes a punch with the best of them, the only thing is his lack of D makes him take a lot more of those punches then he should, but he does tend to take them well.
Margarito? Even though he got knocked out by Mosley, it took a whole heap of thundering right hands to floor him. Couple of those right hands alone would of floored someone else.
That is true, but due to the fact he was recently stopped it's hard to consider him still having that granite chin until it gets tested again, specially considering he was stopped by a "shot, old fighter".

Money May bigtimee. That bomb of Shane would've floored anyone.
I do agree that the 2 shots he got hit with were solid, landed clean, and at least IMHO he didn't see them coming, I guess he's not given enough credit cause he rarely gets hit clean, but i do think that very few fighter could have survived those shots
The only person who needs to be on the list is Sugar Shane Mosley.
That's why he was my top pick.
Another excellent one i had forgotten about, regardless of his inability to fight for the full 12 rounds, he has a granite chin, dudes skull looks like an easter island statue.
