They plod forward, get tagged with bombs, and with the good graces of mother nature that blessed them with an adamantium skull they are able to stay in the fight and actually come back. Daley was punching Nick's face like one of those punching bag machines, and instead of going out like a normal human being Nick just pops back up. They are supposed to be these elite mma boxers, but how true is that with a severely lacking defensive game. I like how guys like JBJ, prime Fedor, or Mousasi have a very underrated granite chin, purely because we dont see them get hit flush very often.
I know that a chin has always been and always will be a big part of fighting, just like how some fighters are blessed with speed, natural cardio, or power. But with speed, cardio, and power you still have to make those things work for you. A hard hitter will still have to connect his strikes, as does the fast guy or the cardio machine. But a chin is just there, nothing more nothing less.
