Better chin? Wilder or Joshua?

I was gonna do a thread when I saw Ortiz, as pictured in my avy, coughing up that man syrup.Comment

I thought Joshua was legit done when he got dropped vs Klitschko. That was one of the biggest comebacks I've seen in quite awhile.
I never thought Wilder was legit done vs Ortiz. He struggled, he got hurt, he came close to getting dropped, but he never seemed as out of it in the 7th round as Joshua did in the 6th round to me.
Both showed impressive resolve & survivablity in the face of something most guys don't comeback from at all, but I definitely thought Joshua was more out of it then Wilder was & therefore showed a higher degree of coming back on that particular night.Comment

Hahaha top man I can imagine the thread now "Ortiz although bruised and battered from the weekends fisting by wilder was still assuming the position ready for some monster schlong. I willfully obliged"Comment

Got you, bro. Wilder's stamina and frame probably helped him recover faster too.Comment

Both taken bombs from legit punchers, though I'd argue Wlad is the most proven power puncher. Wlad landed as clean as you'll see on Joshua
Both been knocked down. Wilder been hurt in more fights.
I'd say they both have decent chins, nothing much to separateComment

How is Wlad more proven. Have you seen how Ortiz obliterated Jennings compared to Klitshko?
Joshua has been hurt more than once as well, and has been in the ring 20 less times then Wilder. Yesterday's fight clearly showed who between the two has the better chin. No doubt in my mind Joshua would've been dropped by the shots Wilder took.Last edited by KingHippo; 03-04-2018, 04:11 PM.Comment

This. Wilder was much more hurt than Joshua was.I’ve seen Joshua take huge punches from a Klitschko - a proven elite world class puncher. He went down once, but continued to take punches and stood up right.
Wilder got rocked by Eric Molina, journeymen and was hurt badly yesterday.
Joshua has a more sturdy chin imo.
However, both have weaknesses and both have massive hearts.Comment

Interesting opinion, and no its not as clear as you make out.How i Wlad more proven. Have you seen both Jennings and Ortiz fights?
Joshua has been hurt more than once as well, but was in half the fights. Yesterday's fight clearly showed who between the two has the better chin. No doubt in my mind Joshua would've been dropped by the shots Wilder took.
Wlad is more proven because he has hurt and KO'd much better fighters than Jennings...Comment

Wilder has nowhere near to a iron chin. The punches that Ortiz landed weren't even that hard.
I had to rub my eyes when I saw Wilder, just to make sure I wasn't watching a rerun of Oliver McCall.
The way he hung on and was spaghetting around on rubber legs like a prime RJJ was something to behold.
The guy has an iron chin, no doubt. The way he was still completely out of it a minute later.... the powers of recovery are spectacular.Comment
