    90s Foreman anyone? Took clean left hooks from Morrison and Cooney, took clean shots from Briggs, took on everything Holyfield had too.

    I wouldnt say the best, but damn impressive. Chuvalo is probably king.

        George Chuvalo, who fought at a time when there were some serious heavyweights with power.....Toney's tough though no doubt.....

          Run, I agree with you 100%. Most little guys that have moved up in weight have shown not to have the same chin at an higher weight. Also when you get older you don't have the same chin, Toney who was at 154 in his first fight and at the age of 38 after 80 fights can take bombs from Peter & Rahman tells you something.

          Hagler had a great chin but he never moved up, he only fought at 160,

          Chuvalo fought only at heavyweights but was out on his feat more then once, I've never seen Toney being out on his feet.

          Easily the best P4P chin of all time!

            Holmes was almost out against Shavers many refs today would've stopped that fight, just look at Brock against Wlad he got up the same way and the ref stopped the fight. He was knocked out by Tyson and was hurt by Snipes.

            I don't think anyone will ever mention Holmes having the best chin of all time, he does not even make the top 10 best chins in heavyweight history.

                For me it's without question, Jake La Motta. Runner-up goes to Marvin Hagler in my eyes. As mentioned, he took the best shots from true knockout artists and shook them off as if nothing happened.

                  Sugar Ray Leonard deserves a mention;
                  also Aaron Pryor - the shots he took from Arguello were brutal.
