    My argument is that with the punishment GGG takes, the fact he hasn't gone down amazes me.

    He literally eats punches, it baffles me. He is visibly hurt a few times but he recovers. I was only pointing out that he may have a better chin then Canelo and Mayweather because we have never seen Canelo or Mayweather be consistently hit flush the way GGG has.

    Almost every fight I see GGG get tattoo'd a handful of times win or lose. His defense isn't the best, his jab keeps people at bay though.

      Floyd don't get hit but when he has been he's looked vulnerable. I doubt any hard punchers has claimed best punch they ever threw and landed was on floyd
      Boxing’s biggest mystery exactly how great is Floyd’s chin

      I’d rate it 8 out of 10. Could be higher if it was tested more

      The man never went down even from perfect shots landed by hard hitters like Mosley and Maidana

        Floyd is more due to defense

        Canelo and ggg do have iron chins similar to Chavez Sr.

          Alvarez LOOKS like he has a great chin, and his chin IS great

          I’m amazed by fighters with skinny man builds with great chins. SRR, Floyd, etc

              Exactly this! Their composure is key to how they take and recover from shots. Neither Canelo or Floyd panic when they are in trouble. Fighters like that are a rare breed.

                  I think floyd has a good chin but idk about great, I think his mental toughness is other worldly so he doesnt break down after taking a big shot. Let's imagine like a juan Manuel marquez that doesnt go down lol

                  Canelo obviously has a GREAT chin, hes taken flush shots from angulo, lara, golovkin, Jacob's and even a couple from kovalev.

                  Gggs chin has to be great lol theres times when he exclusively blocks punches with his face. I honestly dont think he has a choice sometimes

                    Idk about that. Floyd has rarely been chin checked cuz his defense is so high level. He showed he has a good chin vs Maidana & SSM, but elite level idk about that.

                    Same with Canelo. Canelo rolls with punches so well a lot of stuff that does land doesn't land to max impact.

                    GGG definitely has showed the best chin of the 3, but that's almost a insult cuz his defense isn't near to being par to the other 2 & he's had to eat bigger shots.

                      But the shots maidana landed on floyd Khan didn't go down from? I doubt maidana landed perfectly on floyd whereby maidana thought to himself if I'd landed that on anyone else they'd have gone down.
                      Floyd s chin like rjj for all we know
