    Wayne McCullough, awesome chin, if he could have hit harder than two year old he would have been a great champion.

    Some of the hardest hitting featherweights couldn't budge him, Naseem Hamed, Eric Morales!

    The punches didn't seem to have an effect, I think the Larios fight (rematch) was one fight too many, ended in a late stoppage by Tko!

      Ali when physically matured has one of the best chins if not the best chin equal with others. This view was solidified when i watched him fight Shavers recently. He took some huge shots.

        Joe Grim, Tom Sharkey, Jake LaMotta, Rocky Marciano, George Chuvalo, Muhammad Ali, Vito Antuofermo, Randy "Tex" Cobb, Marvin Hagler, Julio Cesar Chavez.

            Jake Lamotta's chin was amazing

              those are exactly the 3 i was going to mention, although cobb was always kindof a sideshow, like butterbean.

              Dont forget ray mercer, he took EVERYTHING a prime lennox lewis and evander holyfield had to offer, plus he fought tommy morrison, who, despite his other shortcomings, had some serious pop. ray kept coming and put him out in 5 or 6. and dont bring up the loss to klitschko, hes was 42 when he lost his first fight by tko.

                And Kid Gavilan was knocked down on atleast two occasions (Ike Williams and Carmen Basilio).
                no kidding, srr's chin wasnt even that great, it was his heart and attitude that made up for it. lamotta floored him twice i believe and he was dropped a host of other times. from this list its CLEARLY marvin hagler.

                  George Chuvalo had the best chin ever. He was never knocked down in his whole career. Even Ali and Foreman couldnt bring him down.

                      Haha!

                      Did Marvin Hagler ever get knocked down?
