Francis Ngannou has the best chin of all time

[BrockLesnarsTurtleBack]

Agree/disagree?

Never been wobbled or rocked. Took five full rounds of punishment from Stipe and wasn't even close to being finished and didn't even look hurt at any point. Stipe is one of the heavy hitters of the division. Took Stipe's punch that KOed Werdum again unfazed. Head kick from Gane didn't do damage.

Is there anyone with a chin like Ngannou's in MMA history? Even Mark Hunt didn't have this kind of absurd durability.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Knocking out Overeem, zombie JDS, AA and Werdum makes you a heavy hitter?

Bro watch Hunt vs Stipe and tell me that hunt's chin top notch. That fight should've been stopped in round 3 and Hunt made it to 5 with Stipe literally just pummeling Hunt while waiting for the dumbass ref to stop the fight. Worst beatdown in the UFC I've ever seen. All that punishment and still wouldn't go out.

He's got a solid chin for sure, but not ready to crown Ngannou with the best chin until he takes two flush prime cro cop LHK to the head

 

[Swarthy]

Mark Hint and Big Country and Hendong have the Best Chins. (Romero is up there as well.)

He has not been hit enough. Time will tell. All chins crack eventually.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

As if there is way to prove this?

Another great and original thread in the heavies.

Yeah, Stipe hit him with some power. He has a pretty good chin to this point. But could Lewis knock him out? Yeah I think it’s possible.

I disagree.
Hunt taking a prime Crocop head kick with shoes on.
Francis would've felt that sir...trust me.

Ganes head kick skipped off Francis' shoulder first.

Mark eats it like a sammich.

Oof. That's not a good take.

SPAM sammich.

Somoans don't count due to an unfair genetic advantage.

They legit have heads like a sponge. When I used to play Rugby you have a head clash with a Islander 100% you come off worse.

 

[Mammothman]

Carlos Condit have the GOAT chin, very GGG esque joe.

He took nasty bombs from Ellemberger, Hendricks, Woodley and Lawler all in their prime when they were killers.

lmao.

 

[Athlas]

Oliver McCall has the greatest chin in combat sports history. Or at least top 10.

 

[Pierced7681]

Why is BJ Penn never mentioned in goat chin discussions? Fought from 145 to heavyweight, was never knocked down until well past his prime against Yair Rodriguez, and was never once knocked out cold. And before someone posts the gif of BJ getting dropped in the street, it was an early stoppage. Penn got up and finished him inside the club.

Way too little information to say this. His fights have been super short. Gane doesn’t knock people out. Cormier survived tons of Stipe punches as well.

He’s a massive guy who can take the occasional punch that he eats against smaller opponents, but the jury is way way out on best chin ever. Let’s at least watch him get the shit beat out of him once.
