If Jimmy Hill ever laced 'em up then we have a winner!
Bugner took a good shot......Earnie Shavers beat him up but that was in '82

Liz MacDonald took a fair bit of flack off big Jim without creasing much.

Good call....it was 95% of the time his balance and unorthodox stance that caused The Prince to hit the deck...

Naz and Eubank had the best chins of recent years.

Didn't she sing "Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue.".....bhangra style
I want to know who has the biggest chin in boxing?? i.e a Jimmy Hill ?
Probably Valuev or Cory "T-Rex" Sanders.

McCullough, definately, if he is being class British...

Hamed's chin was nowhere near as solid as Eubanks and in my opinion he would have hit the canvas more often if it wasnt for his unorthadox style.
Calzaghe's chin was very decent.

Top class chin without a doubt.
Has taken punches from some of the hardest punchers in and around his division.

McCullough & Fitz.
If they can't as British, which both should.

Wayne McCullough has one of the best chins of all time IMO. He has taken multiple massive power punches from top class fighters at his weight and never gone down. In his latter days especially. Having shot after shot bounced off his head and still not keeling over. Sure Harrison, Larios, Morales and HAmed all hit him with everything he had about 40 times over and couldn't get him over even once.

Eubank had a good chin but watching his fight with nigel benn his body wasnt the best he looked hurt everytime he got hit in the stomach. Saying that though Benn was a fericios puncher

eubank had some whiskers but he didnt have the best british chin
i would say mccullogh, ted 'kid' lewis, benny lynch, ken buchanan and bob fitzimmons all had better chins
although he was maybe the same as ken

Good call on Wharton, Strike.

I still think Antonio Margarito.
No other welter could have taken that kind of beating for nine rounds and be able to walk from the ring afterwards.
