    Thats a good shout. He certainly has the best defence imo.

    Dont really know how to rank the others. Alexander's hasnt really been tested, I think he would've been stopped if Kotelnik had power. Bradley and Maidana probably have the best. Khan the worst, although it seems to have improved moving up.

      Maidana's chin is fine. His defense is shaky and walks into alot of unnecessary punches, though.

      Khan proved he has a chin on him but I still wouldn't call it granite just yet.

      Bradley, Alexander, and Kotelnik all have solid beards.

      I think the weakest chin at 140 belongs to Ortiz.

        devon's chin has not been tested as of yet

        but from the top 5 guys, it would go something like this:

        1. Kotelnik
        2. Alexander (until proven otherwise)
        3. Bradley
        4. Khan (at 140, his chin seems to hold up just fine)
        5. Maidana


        Maidana's chin seems to give out on him at times, but he does have incredible heart. no matter how many times he's put down to the canvas he will always get back up.

        i had a tough time choosing between him and Khan, but i figured chin and heart are two different things.

          I don't understand how people can rate Khan's chin above Maidana's. If Khan ate the punches he ate in the Ortiz fight he would have been dropped and stopped, if Khan ate the punches he was dishing out on Maidana he would have been on shaky legs throughout the fight.

          Getting hit with a good shot then being on shaky legs for the entire round isn't a sign of a good chin, if anything it is a sign of heart.

            Alexander
            Maidana
            Bradley
            Khan

            I rank Maidana above Bradley because I think his KDs have a lot to do with poor defens.

              Maybe it's just me, but I seem to remember Ortiz having Maidana on the verge of quiting. His heart wouldn't let him, but he was close. The way Bradley handled himself in the Holt makes me want to put him in the top spot but I really don't know. The only thing I do know for sure is that Khan would be 4 of 4.

                Maidana close quitting. LMFO
                its about chins, not heart.

                I agree with the last part tho.
