Got the fb crew on my case again, given a few answers but need back up, lads.

Eubank Sr took some brutal shots especially up at CW v thompson

McCall to my knowledge was never dropped or seriously hurt, and he took flush shots from Lewis like it was nothing. Even well into his 40s he absorbed punches from much younger men without appearing bothered.

McCall is always the answer I give.

Ben Tackie had a seriously good chin, and despite the hand wrap saga which undermined his career to a great extent Antonio Margarito was rock solid.

Jane lamotta. Legendary survival vs Sugar ray Robinson. Stopped but on his feet.

Harry Greb. Nearly 250 fights. Only stopped once really when he fought at a bigger weight.

Kid Gavalan. Never stopped. Fought everyone. 140+ fights .

George Chuvalo
Vitali Klitschko
Muhammad Ali
Bennie Briscoe

Shavers
Eubank
Tackie
McCullum
Toney
Chuvalo

This is what I got called out on, Foreman. Apparently the Ali ko doesn't count because he was tired...

Kell Brook.

Went up two weight divisions and took what GGG had and didn't go down...

No, just got his face smashed in. Carson Jones hurt him and he was down in his early career, keep off my thread if you can't talk sense.

Not shavers, knocked out too many times to be classed as a granite chin.

I'd have McCall, Chuvalo, Toney, Holmes, Basillio, Robinson, Hagler.

Oliver mcall,
Hagler,
Eubank sr,
Mike Tyson.

Hagler
Monzon
Froch
Holyfield -anyone that goes 24 rds with Lennox and stays on his feet has to get a mention.

Wayne McCullough always springs to mind whenever talking about great chins. He was a tough little guy and was in with some big hitters around the lower weight classes.

Vitali Klitschko appeared immovable at times. THAT upercut from Lewis nearly decapitated him and he just took it and came back. Every time I watch it I still can't quite believe it!

Calzaghe also had a great chin. Glenn Johnson probably deserves a mention.

In the modern day GGG. I've never once seen him hurt. You can land flush and he just walks on.

Going on the fighters that i have watched a lot i'd say Hagler,Chavez,McCall, Holmes,Eubank snr and Calzaghe.

Marion Wilson, fought most of the 90s 00s heavys, never stopped.

For me Oliver McCall

George Cuvallo.

Jimmy Hill

Calzaghe always had a great chin even when dropped he never looked dazed he could just go back at it again.

John Duddy had a sound chin, seen him take serious punishment in fights and never flinch.
