What are your thoughts on Bradley's chin?
When I think of a solid chin, I think of Froch, eats shots as if they were nothing. It's rare to see him wobble, and the only person to put him down managed to land a perfect one-two which would put most people away. He got up easily.
Bradley has incredible heart. His will to win is amazing. But he gets wobbled by big punches. He hardly goes down as it he has the ability to keep on his feet, albeit with help from the ropes.
What constitutes a good chin to you? Is it the ability to take punches without being wobbled or hurt, or is it simply the ability to remain standing?
Bradley was like Ben Stiller at the end of Dodgeball. Sitting at home stuffing his face, shouting "Fucking Jim Lampley" every time he re-watched the fight.

Chin isn't the problem.. the problem is he doesn't have any power... he has pillow fists.. so when your opponent can walk through your shots with ease... then its not a very good idea to stand toe to toe like he did against Ruslan.
I alway thought he has a good chin and my opinion hasn't changed, he has taken punches from better opponents and come back but it was a bit worrying getting wobbled and hurt with every punch that Provo landed on him, might be due to a number of reasons why he was that hurt since Provo isn't a known heavy puncher at 140 talk less of 147.
Honestly, don't know how he let himself get that far. I understand 25 pounds... but 40?
And in 2 months? Mannn.....
Bradley gained 40 pounds after the Manny fight?any link on this
Between the Pacquiao fight and the Provodnikov he took a lot of punches. It seems he is flirting with disaster. He takes an ok punch but it seems he takes more punches than he has too, especially in the last one. I think Holt had him hurt too.
IMO I think we will see a huge mix of adaption from Tim,I don't see anyone trying to go life or death with Tim unless you catch punches with your face for a living (prod,rios.). Everyone else try's to box him and he just showed he is a great fighter capable of great things. I remember when Roy came down to fight tarver,he destroyed his body by losing 35 lb ,buckled down ,dug deep and beat tarver . Luckily Bradley was just 40 lb of fat. he lost the weight just to rapidly .so his legs were 80 percent . None the less he showed me he is game for everyone .i wanna see Tim fight Marquez and rios and sign with GPB and get some mayweather jr Garcia mathysse and broner on his resume

He has a good chin, but there is only so long you can take punishment like that. I remember Ricky Hatton walking through Kostya Tszyu's right hand all night, but as the fights went by he started to get rocked more and more taking shots until eventually Mayweather caught up with him.
Bradley is a smart fighter. I think he was tying to prove something in that fight. I don't think we will see him fight like that again.
Bradley has a very solid chin..If you've followed Bradleys career you should know this..Takes a shot well(although not in his last fight),I believe weight might have played a part in why he did not take punches well from prov..Mixed in with the stupid style in which he(Bradley)fought..

Tim's chin is made up of a mix of cement and wood, and the cement is cracking.
His mental fortitude is what has prevented him from getting straight up coldc0cked and put to sleep up to this point.
A few more toe-to-toe battles with a hard puncher could eventually turn his chin into mud.
Hopefully, he doesn't sound drunk punched while accepting his induction into the Hall of Fame one day.
I would say that he had a great chin. Those big shots he absorbed from Holt and Ruslan would have put anyone else to sleep. I think those shots were actually harder than the shot Marquez caught Manny with. Keep in mind that Bradley had to lose 40lbs before the fight. It definitely took away from his legs and he was slower than I've ever seen him. So yes, under those conditions, he has a great chin to take those shots and keep throwing back.
