is it the best in ufc history? never been cracked or even knocked down(the reyes one was a slip i think)fighting the best and scariest dudes in mma history. many of his challengers have koed other fighters with ease only person that can compare to chin is maybe silva.
I'm probably going to catch some shit for this because the guy has completely ruined his reputation, but BJ Penn is my pick. He took some full on ass whoopings throughout his career, and wasn't even rocked/dropped until the Yair fight when he was ancient. But, yeah, Jones is right up there. The guy has taken some monstrous shots that would have layed out most light heavyweights in the division.
This. Bj also regularly fought guys way bigger than him. Took a clean soccer kick from a hw machida if I remember correctly
Don't worry he will get cracked soon enough. Everyone who has had a great chin gets cracked after years of getting softened up.
based on what? jones chin is tested. blaydes stunned ngannou with a jab. he survived a hard shot from stipe, but thats it. makes no sense.
yes, jones has indeed a granite chin. but this does not change the fact that he is a cheater and a fake champ
Too early to tell, I don't think he have been tested enough times, yes his chin looked good against Miocic but it was just one fight
I personally go with Carlos Condit, he have taken BOMBS from Prime Ellemberge, Prime Lawler, Prime Woodley, Prime Hendricks, those were mean shots that would have put away most fighters. Despite the fact he is pretty washed up he is yet to be stopped by strikes
Mousasi s chin under zuffa 15 fights [ 12-3] as granite as it gets. The hall tko ( where he took 2 unbelievable shots over 15 seconds .He dominated Hall over both fights outside those 15 seconds.....spinning kick to button and follow up flying knee to button and still couldn't put Gegard out). Jones , Mousasi .... a few others have ridiculous chins.
