Best chin ever?

[chaconfan]

Thanks but

I don't know about "ever" but Mariusz Wach has (next to Vitali) the best chin in the sport right now.

This was to determine who was the no1 of all time, but thank you for joining in.
So far Laporte, Hagler and Chuvalo are the leaders, but Haglers best opponents were all guys who had moved up weights, Hearns, Leonard, Duran, Mugabi.
Chuvalo fought big punchers Cleveland williams, Frazier, Foreman, Quarry,
but Laporte fought Nelson, McGuigan, Gomez, Tszyu, Lockridge, Chavez, Pedroza, and Sanchez-who wasnt a big puncher but could stop or drop you even in the 15th rd and obviously when you are exhausted being attacked by someone who has loads left, you are pretty awesome to withstand that!

Froch has an ATG chin. Whether it's number 1 , I don't know. Look at the shots he was taking in the groves fight .

No argument at all from me pal. Yes Froch has an awesome chin, the best evidence is in the Jean Pascal fight, its unreal the shots, they both take in that

(In no particular order) Kid Gavilan, Marvin Hagler, George Chuvalo, Sugar Ray Robinson, Jake Lamotta, Oliver McCall, Gene Fullmer (the Robinson shot would have stopped literally anyone - probably the best punch of all time - and the other stoppage of his career was nothing to do with chin), Harry Greb, James Toney, Tex Cobb, Laporte (as mentioned), Tua, ODLH, McCullough, Hopkins (though it doesn't get tested much so this one is iffy), Holyfield. Hell there are countless fighters with granite in their jaw.

A lot of the old timers mentioned we don't have film evidence for though - just records. In any case, the person with the best chin of all time will be some unknown - you need more than a chin to be a well known boxer.

If I had to pick a top 3 of those I've actually seen on film I'd have to pick Toney (simply because he's basically never been in significant trouble despite fighting heavies when he's a natural mw/smw), Hagler and McCullough.

Oliver McCall,,, no doubt,,, best chin i have ever seen in over 25 years of watching

Haven't you heard Amir Khan is the new best chin in boxing he sparred with imaginary Ward and took his shots atg chin right there.

Chuvalo
Tex Cobb
Ray Robinson
Wayne Mccullough
Marvin Hagler

[edgarg]

Amongst his opponents, were Azumah Nelson, Wilfredo Gomez, Barry McGuigan,Julio cesar Chavez
Salvador sanchez, Kostya Tszyu, Rocky Lockridge, Billy Costello, John John Molina, Eusebio Pedroza and many other greats. I never saw him go down ever, and some of those bouts went 15rd. Some of you will know that it is Juan Laporte that I speak of. Marvin Hagler also had a beast of a chin.

Joe Grim....#1.

hagler got wobbled/hurt by hearns in the first round. if fight continued onward longer hearns would have stopped him anyway

This may be the worst comment of all time.

[gratz_the_king]

aside from toney ill also throw in tex cobb (check his fight with larry holmes) and librado andrade on the list
