      No contest, the guys a rock. Toney' great record is down to great defense, but he was put down by a Sam Peter jab, not the stuff of a granite chin.

        That's who I was gonna say as well. For 12 rounds he took brutal flush shots to the chin on a consistent basis and didn't budge. Even though he lost it was impressive just to see him standing after the fight and being able to talk ok.

            Yeah cause the ropes saved him in that Corrales fight.

              c'mon, James is shot now. That more than anything else is why Sam was able to do what he did in the rematch.

              Tua had a great chin, but there were fights where all he could do was take the guy's best punch. For most of his career, Toney could take your best while still trying to beat you (and successful in most cases).

                I think Floyd deserves to be on the list.
                Never dropped and never stopped, unlike every fighter on that list with the exception of Peter.
                judah dropped him but didnt get credit.. but he does have a good chin

                  right that was more of a nice shot at the right time when your opponent was off balance, kinda like when Peter kd's Toney with a jab.
                  Im obviously not saying Floyd's chin is on the level or Toney's Tua's etc etc, but I just think he deserves a mention because his chin is overrated.
