      **** The Guy's Got A Block For A Head,
      But Yeah He's Got A Noteworthy Chin. It's Hard To Say Best Of All Times How Do You Guage Who Toney Faught Compared To Some Other Granite Chin Mo Fo's Throughout History? Now If He Used His Head For Other Means Than To Prove He Has A Good Chin Maybe His Record Would Be Different.

        I know that Duran got knocked out but it wasn't until Middleweight when he started at Bantam Weight and didn't get KO'd till he was 37years old and even then it was only at Middleweight to a HOF fighter called Hearns. Neither Hagler nor SRL could KO Duran.

        I'm not saying Durans chin is far better than Toney's but I think its worth some consideration and an argument can be said for why Durans is better but can see the logic in saying TOney's is better.

          I'll admit it's possible; but I confess I wonder how much of it was Peter's power being overrated.

          I'm not trying to take anything away from Toney, dont' get me wrong. I'm just being skeptical. Toney, p4p, very well could have one of the best chins ever...or does; whether it's the best or not is up for grabs....but it's better than I thought. Still, Peter didn't connect solidly with too many shots because of Toney's defensive expertise...so it's hard to say.

              Anytime you say "the best of all time" you're asking for trouble.

              No doubt he has one of the best chins of all time.

              The guy's a rock.

                The temple shot that Toney didn't see, was a perfect punch from Peter, I bet that temple shot would've knocked any other heavyweight out cold!

                    james toney is still there i think im more convinced in his chin than i am of hagler ...hes beat john ruiz ... i had him beating rahman ... hes beat holyfield "**** you haters listen to the comintators **** before the fight picks up they all had toney getting his ass kicked untill about the 4th round then holyfield all of the sudden was 41 "

                    the mans took everybodys best and called them a *****...called there mamas a ***** then call there kids bitches in the process

                    long live james toney!
                    You are a complete idiot. Hagler fought and beat all comers. As far as Fat Toney, Peter didn't connect cleanly, if he had, Fat Toney would have been headless Fat Toney. Ali took the biggest hitters punches...Shavers, Foreman.
                    Frazier, Norton.....**** Fat Toney.......Glad he lost.

                      Exactly!

                      You have to see a fighter get some real punishments and be able to survive it before you can pass judgement on his chin.

                      Did you people ever saw Toney badly ****** up? Nopes! That's right so STOP sucking Toney's ****.

                      Toney has never been Kayoed not because of his "granite chin", he has never been kayoed because he is a sleek hard to hit fighter.
