Chins you're not sold on.

[boliodogs]

Wilder and Crawford I think have suspect chins even though Crawford has never been down. I don't trust Wilder's chin at all. He has been matched very carefully overall. His next fight might test his chin. Joshua got hurt by a big puncher but he stayed on his feet. I think his chin is better than Wilder's chin. Brook's chin seems solid to me. I guess Khan's weak chin is not just suspect but proven weak.

GGG and Canelo... they've never been hit hard and Canelo was almost dropped by little Cotto.

I really disagree with you. These are two of the best chins in boxing. If GGG has never been hit hard in nearly 400 amateur fights and 34 pro fights including 16 middleweight title fights he must have incredible defensive skills. Canelo was not dropped but he was hurt by Cotto's brother. Cotto's brother is a damn good puncher and he caught Canelo with a hell of a punch and followed up with more very hard punches. Canelo was only a teenager and he weathered the storm and won by KO. Don't you think his chin might have improved over the last 6 or 7 years? Since then nobody including big punchers Mosley, Lara, Kirkland, Miguel Cotto and Angulo has ever even staggered Canelo. Big Cotto couldn't hurt him at all with his best punches. Don't you think Miguel Cotto hits harder than his "little brother".

Mention some.

I've got.. Brook, Crawford, Wilder, Joshua to name a few

I wouldn't call Brook's chin weak. He's been staggered, but not enough times to really call him chinny. He recuperates well too.

[Earl-Hickey]

I'll name a few:

Crawford: Saw him get hurt several times against Gamboa, and his chin hasn't been tested against bigger fighters yet. I personally don't think he lasts very long if he moves up to 147.

Kovalev: Still have questions about his durability.

Anthony Joshua: Very chinny indeed. Doesn't have the greatest defense either so if you put him in with a skilled puncher he's going to be in a world of trouble. Him vs. Wilder is literally 50/50, first one who lands wins.

I always laugh at the though to Joshua and wilder both being ultra defensive and putting on a 12 round boring ass jab fest if they ever fought.

Haye vs wlad was two chinny power punchers where you though guarrnteed ko and it was so boring

Canelo was rocked more than once by a a guy he outweighed by fifteen pounds (Floyd) and almost got dropped by the right hand that had Magic Johnson on his feet in the late rounds, a guy who couldn't even make a 152 catchweigh neither on the one day weigh in (150.5lb) or on fight night (150lbs) or even on the thirty day weigh in (150lbs).

He was also badly hurt and rocked by Kirkland.

Canelo don't got no solid chin. It aint weak either of course, but it aint solid, it will crack as soon as he fights someone his own size without draining or blowing em up, which I guess is like...never.

Kovalev has a suspect chin too, so does Povetkin (Kd four times by Klitschko, one of them via a freakin Jab).

Wilder's chin is suspect, not confirmed weak, but suspect.

Joshua's chin is solid.

Fury's chin is suspect.

Thurman? I don't think his chin is suspect, but I think his body is. Collazo hurt him badly.

Tim Bradly used to have a solid chin, but now it has become suspect after getting hurt badly by Vargas and getting KD by Pac after not getting KD in their two previous bouts.

Crawford's chin is not suspect in my opinion, it is plain weak. If a small guy like Gamboa can hurt him like he did in the later rounds of their fight, then all the welters can KO him. His offense is brilliant but his defense and chin is weak in my view.

Stevenson's chin is suspect.

Yeah that's it for now.

[Agent Mulder]

Bradley's chin has crossed over to the suspect chin zone.

[LacedUp]

From a jab.

Carson Jones rocked him aswell a few times.

It was a right hand? Straight on the chin.

And it was hardly a 'booty dew'

Imo, if anything we learned from the Carson Jones fight, it is that Brook can take a good punch. he was completely done after 7 rounds, had his nose broken, took some good punches every round and was still fighting back in round 12.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

Thurman, Brook,Gervanis Tank, Verdejo, Zurdo

It wasn't even on the chin mate, it was a right hand to the temple. A temple shot can throw anyone off, but he had recovered 10 seconds later and knocked Senchenko out.

I've got no worries about his chin, a gassed Brook took plenty of shots to the chin against Jones and was never close to going down.

As far as dodgy chins, Bradley is joining that group at this stage. Stevenson and Crawford too. I'm not sure I'd list too many HW's given they can all be hurt due to the size of the opposition, even a good chin at HW won't always hold up.

Might be. Need to watch it back. Definitely wasn't a jab though. But I think a dodgy chin is when someone pats you and you do a chicken dance. Think Amir Khan or David Price.

Not worried about Brook's chin at all.

Bradley doesn't have a dodgy chin, it's just that maybe his punch resistance isn't the same as what it was.
