    MchCall has an all time great chin. But i dont know if he can still take a punch as good as in his prime. Age will get to your chin. Look at Holyfield.

      As for Toney, you guys are confusing his defense with his chin. He's picked the right opponents at HW and hasn't taken any really huge, clean shots. His chin is just ok. Put him in with Wlad and it'll break down, I assure you.

      Sergei has a good chin, too. He beat the count against Harris and should have been allowed to continue IMHO. In with most refs, the fight would have continued as he beat the count easily and wasn't wobbling or swaying. Being able to come back like he did after being hurt several times by Brewster was very impressive.

      McCall has a legendary chin, but is he even active anymore?
      in his first and only real test, he was dropped like a big dog....

        Even at heavyweight he can't crack an egg. That's whats shocking. He's a slick, move first boxer that never was a puncher. Medicated or not, the punches were what made Liakahovic fall to the canvas, and he was in a shell hurt on the ropes when he was getting rocked.
        Featherfisted??

        C'mon, he's not the biggest puncher out there I'll admit; but he's got some pop in that right.

          He was rocked by punches from Mo Harris that looked huge. In reality and if you've seen Mo Harris fight on occasion, you'd know he was just going about the motions throwing combinations which he is capable of. If you let your hands go against Liakahovic, you can hurt him and put him in survival mode. Sure he survives, and sure he has heart.....but chin? How in the hell does he get put in survival mode so much, if his chin is Iron?

                peter - he stayed on his feet and ate alot of shots courtesy of wlad

                ok i will get eaten up for this but i think kali meehan has a good chin

                look at the shots he took from brewster and then dished out in return

                moreover, look at the shots he took from rahman

                admittedly i've only seen him in a handful of fights but he still took alot of punishment

                    I picked Peter, because I never McCall in a fight. Can someone give an example of how good Oliver's chin is?

                      well,,,,I voted for peter and think he does have a very good chin but wlad is the only puncher he faced and wlad didnt load up on anything he just boxed and punched to the target not through it. he was too afraid of getting countered,,so I think peter's chin is still somewhat untested but it does appear to be one of the best if not the best in the division based on his build and the wlad fight
