Hardest shot you’ve ever seen a fighter absorb without going down

[KeithHackneyballpunch]

Not the best examples, but basically Max in this entire fight. He took huge shots and didn’t go down. He did get saved by the fence at one point though

great choice....and one of Dustin's best performances.

 

[McGrubie]

Ben Rothwell has eaten some terrifying shots without going down. I found two examples right away!

JDS slinging his patented overhand right and landing on the button:


and Hunt cracking him with a overhand right just when Ben is moving towards him:

Completely forgot about Ben. Those shots were brutal

 

[HatKick]

this deserves a mention

I know the TUF era fans won't believe me, but Chuck had one of the best chins in the sport in his prime.

That’s cause chucks punches hurt Vitor but vitors don’t hurt Chuck, according to rogan at least lol

 

[Nicho007]

Francis doesn’t load up on this, but it’s still impressive on Stipe’s part.

Impressive the concussione Power of this shot landed going backwards. Stipe's head seems a speed punching ball...

 

[mjfan23]

that one was pretty bad. Omalley was fresh and he moved into the kick. He fell but not from the kick

Man Malley lit up Max pretty bad

Romero's durability is so dumb. Dude eats a flush head kick and doesn't even flinch.

People always forget this stuuff in the Romero vs Whittaker fights. Whittaker put an absolute sustained beating on Romero also. He just didn't go down as dramatically.

Once it cracked from Rampage and then Rashad it never came back.

Stipe ate a huge right hand in the first round of the rematch as well, I think it scared him because he shot in for the takedown afterwards.

and Hunt cracking him with a overhand right just when Ben is moving towards him:

I remember watching this live and Hunto walking away thinking he KO'd him, guy didn't even go down...crazy chin

 

[Kryptt]

Pretty sure Roy's Chin has been the talk for ages.

Was a real Holy Shit moment when Hunto slept em!

Haha yeah this wasn’t intended to be a Roy Nelson thread, or even “best chins ever” thread. That was just the best example I could think of.

 

[Kryptt]

That was just the best example I could think of.

Can't go wrong there certainly!

 

[Vil7]

Cro Cop had that gorgeous axe kick that landed too. It looked like it stunned Hunt a little but he didn't go down.

 

[McGrubie]

Didn’t Rashad hit Jones with damn near the same punch he murdered Chuck with? I can’t find the gif, and maybe I just imagined this scenario

Poor dudes chin finally gave out on him against Macos is his most recent one, mind u Marco's hits like a truck so hard to say if his chin is gone or he just got caught at HW. But damn respect to taking those shots from JDS n Huntoo

 

[Syrus Bunns III]

Listen,
First2 rounds Hunt vs big Ben

 

[ltarian11]

Certainly not hardest shot ever, but that old dude in the bar took a pretty good sucker shot from Conor and didn't go down. Have to admit I was impressed by that old dude.

 

[tipofmitt]

Never seen that angle on Mendes vs. Jose uppercut.... I'd be spitting out teeth.
