Rousimar Palhares has one great chin..Hendo caught him with BIG right hand It does seem he has a good chin but I want to see it tested more before we can say its great. Gomi has a really good chin. Henderson has a good chin. Tim Sylvia's chin is pretty good and he has good recovery. Even though he got KO'ed quickly recently Hunt. I would like to say Nog too but sadly it looks like his punch resistance is now fading.

Although hes been dropped a couple times Nick Diaz has a iron jaw dude took tons of clean shots from a heavy handed Joe Riggs who weighed in at like 190 that night.

-Cabbage was awesome against Arlovski (meaning he took punishment well)
-Fitch is quite durable too in the chin dept.

Mark Hunt. Took a Cro Cop head kick and jumped straight up. Recently KO's by a middleweight, proving anyone can be parked.

A silva!! even though he doesnt take many punches. When he does he just walks right through them never seen him hurt i remember when he fought rich it was almost like he wanted rich to hit him.

Bill Butcher

Even tho he is well past his best at present, Id have to say Minotauro Nogueira had a great chin.

The punches he took from Fedor while Fedor was in his guard in their 1st fight were devastating... his only response to these bombs was to keep trying for a sub, amazing.

Fedor himself has a solid chin.

Henderson hit him with a solid shot too and Silva never flinched. When a guy with Silva's talent ends up have a great chin as well it almost doesn't seem fair!

If you can take CC's kick to your chin and not fall asleep. Your chin is definitely one of the best.

Andrei Arlovski

joking aside, i'd say Jon Fitch should be in there

The flying knee Cote took against Silva was brutal and the dude didn't even flinch. My jaw hit the floor at that point.

Look how much punishment and how many knee's he chewed on in the first fight though.

And that was after taking Chuck's best.

I'd say Anderson's got one of the best chin's when he actually does get hit. :lol:

Did you see those free shots he eat from Rivera?

Come on. I'm not saying Rampage has the best chin but he isn't far off. It took Wandy like 15 knees to the head to knock out Rampage.

Anyway I'd say Anderson Silva, Dan Henderson, Big Nog up until recently, Mark Hunt have iron chins. Out of them Hendo has the best for me.

definately - the amount of high kicks he took from CC was actually unbelievable those kicks would have decapitated a normal person and he took them one after another.

And no love for Fujita? Actually to hell with Fujita, what was the name of that Japanese dude that fought Goodridge years ago in PRIDE and took a MONUMENTAL pasting?! Goodridge hit him with HUGE uppercuts and he still couldnt floor him.

Goodridge hit him with HUGE uppercuts and he still couldnt floor him. Forgot about Fujita. I remember that Goodridge fight but I can't remember the guy's name. Another guy from Pride who had a solid chin and showed good heart was Hiromitsu Kanehara. He was in the receiving end of some serious beatings.

The Wanderlei fights proves that Rampage has a GOOD/great/godlike chin, not a bad. Idiot.
