which fight best shows a fighter with a potential GOAT chin and they back it up

The ones that show up in my mind are the Roy Nelson and Black Beast matchup (which was really only one huge shot if I remember correctly)

The Sylvia and Cabbage fight

And of course when Hunt took the CroCop kick

What else am I missing? And who has the best chin ever?
 
Roy took a beating against JDS and never crumbled, epic chin.
 
Robert Whitaker against Yoel in their second fight. Should have been finished maybe 4 times. I thought that was up there for goat level chin display
 
Noguiera in Pride... Fedor… Mirko and Sapp couldn't finish him. Those were beatings that could end a career.

Roy Nelson is just like he has a head filled with foam or something, the beatings he's took in his career
 
Better question would be what is the most underrated display of chin. Everyone knows about Hunt, Nelson etc
 
Not the greatest display ever, but HW is the big hitter division and I thought Ngannou showed a great chin by taking some of those punches from Stipe. Unfortunately he doesn't go out of his way for a finish, but he's KO'd lots of fighters with those shots.

See the Kerr fight.

I was more impressed by Romero's chin in that fight. He got hit with some bombs.
