Best chin : Hunt vs Nelson vs Hendo

You assholes need to watch the hunt lebanner fights if you truly think there's actually any candidate other than hunt for best chin ever. Hunt is an animal.

This.
Watch him go toe to toe with a prime Ray Sefo and all other candidates for best chin become irrelevant.
 
Don't forget the first coming of Hunto... aka Cabbage:eek:

I was wondering if anyone was going to bring him up. Has to be in the discussion for sure. He was not much of a "skilled" fighter, but the dude could take a beating.

As far as best though, i would go with Hendo and Hunt
 
Must not b familiar w/ manhoef outside of mma, huh? Manhood wasn't 185 when he ko'd hunt. He can cut to 185, but shit, I bet hunt could too.

Melvin has always been a middle weight. Even when fighting at HW, that's just the weight someone his size should fight at.

And I've always been a huge fan of his.
 
Right, Hunt has taken crazy shots...Hendo has a crazy chin though but I haven't seen him take some amazing shots like Hunt.. but Rampage respects Hendo's chin like its a trophy so that tells me enough about Hendo's chin. He must have taken Rampage's punches too well and rampage respected that.

Top chins..

Hendo,rampage,hunt, nelson, shogun, and anderson

Wanderlei's knees object to your inclusion of Rampage Jackson's chin. Rampage has been knocked for a loop several times.
 
Jason "Mayhem" Miller has an underrated chin. I don't think anybody has mentioned Bonnar in this thread.

Bonnar isn't he the guy who got beat by a middleweight while on roids? Yeah he's got the all time best chin in the history of mixed martial arts. :icon_evil
 
p4p i would actually say BJ Penn. dude has been hurt but ive never seen him get cleanly knocked down. Hendo has been rocked bad by guys like A and W Silva, Fedor, and others. Hunt would probably have the best chin simply cause he is the biggest and has taken the hardest shots in his career

^ never watched the fight
 
Let's see.

Nelson been KOd.

Hunt been KOd.

Hendo has not.

Nelson and Hunt has rocks for stones but I wouldn't freaking put them as top 3.

Hendo vs Anderson vs Shogun

That's the right question, so edit that title.

SHOGUN

Nelson and Hunt both fight guys that are 250lb+ with bricks for fists, it's not rocket science to that heavyweights hit the hardest out of any other division.
 
to all the posters that are discrediting hunts chin because he got knocked out by a middleweight, i have a question for you. do you not know who melvin manhoef is?
he's not just some mw, he's like the mike tyson of kick boxing and mma. great technique and raw power. plus hunt was running into the punch, it would have ko'd just about anyone
 
Cote is up there i think
