      I'd give Wlad maybe 5 (for average) or possibly 6.

      I do think it's underrated, certainly, and the guy has never really been laid out, except for against Lamon, but that did look iffy. I do think that it's largely psychological.

      Vitali I'd go much higher, though I'd like to see it in action more. But at least an 8.

        I believe Vitali should get an automatic 10 because in all of his amateur and professional career he has never hit the canvas. If that doesnt qualify you for a 10 chin I dont know what does.

          Yeah Vitali got rocked by Sanders and Lewis but didn't go down. The only time he's hit the canvas was when him an Lewis wrestled eachother down in their fight. Great chin, wish he was still fighting/healthy. I'd say Wlad is about a 6 now. He's failry easy to knock down, but it seems pretty hard to actually knock out, which Peter found out.

            If you are not a Wlad's fan and you give his chin an "8", then you just dont know much about boxing in general.

            So, nuthugger or ignorant? what you choose to be?

              If anybody is ignorant, it is you. I hate repeating the same **** but I usually make exceptions for kids and slow people, so here it goes:

              Peter, known as the most powerful and feared puncher at the time of his fighting with Wlad, could not knock him out. He knocked him down just to see Wlad rise and keep on going. By the way, it's the same Peter that knocked Toney down with the jab. If that's not a good chin, I don't know what is.

              Sanders hit Wlad with a punch that would knock 95% of any HW down/out. Wlad kept on rising from multiple knockdowns but was too inexperienced at what to do when hit so he kept on trying to swing at Sanders who kept on laying him down with haymakers. The ref stopped the fight. If that's not a good chin, I don't know what is.

              He was never knocked down/out in his other fights, I don't want to hear any bull**** about his first fight with Brewster. In his 2nd fight with Brewster, Brewster got him flash a few times and Wlad didn't even flinch.

              So who is ignorant now? Oh, and nuthugger is so last year.

                I would give it a 7. Being a big 6'6 200+ pound fighter, he doesn't have to worry about getting hurt too much. He did get up 4 times when he was knocked down by Corrie Sanders. (punches that would of knocked anyone out) I question his chin and heart though when he was koed by Brewster and Purity.

                  Peter knocks down a 37 year old fat middleweight once, but he knocks a huge HW down multiple times, and that's an argument for a good chin?

                  95% of Heavyweights would have been knocked out by that punch... in your nuthugger's dream. In reality Sanders never knocked out anyone relevant, except for Wlad.

                  Nuthugger applies very well to you, I dont need 2007 words.

                    5. His chin is not strong, but not as weak as people make it out to be in my opinion.

                    And as for Vitali, his chin is NOT Iron. He has been hurt before. Its pretty strong, about 8.
