Underrated ability to absorb punishment

[Cucumber Slice]

Yeah we ususally have the best chin threads per weight class but whos out there that doesnt get talked about as much?
For me its Anthony Pettis. Never been KO'd and faced a lot of top fighters. He has a huge face so maybe that helps lol

Luke Rockhold.

Pettis is a tough mofo. Broke his orbital on one of the first exchanges against RDA and stayed in the fight for 4 more rounds.

what?

The emotional punishment fans and haters dish out his way would make lesser fighters Jill themselves.

Carlos Condit

some guy who fought omalley took about 300 shots to the head and kept moving forward

Shogun and JDS.

Ngannou might have legitimately had one of the best chins we've ever seen and it's too bad we never got to see it tested more.

Frankie Edgar - Maynard (twice) and Bendo both almost killed him in the early rounds and Edgar would not stop or even slow down.

diego sanchez gets name-checked sometimes, but IMO actually not often enough. he was one of the real terminator fighters, got lit up over and over and just kept moving forward.

he's a weird case. not chin but recovery time. he'd get dropped like a sack of potatoes but then look fine again in no time at all.

Kris Moutinho.
That guy used his face for defense for the entire fight. Tough as nails and a head like a bowling ball.

Kris Moutinho you uncultured swine. How can you not remember name of one of the greatest Bantamweights?

Also if I remember correctly Jan can take a lot - only time I remember him being rocked is when he idiotically came forward to nuclear punch from Santos.
Thiago is pretty powerful puncher + Blachowicz came forward adding to momentum and he still not was out cold. Lost via TKO by his stupid decision tho.

Shogun and JDS.

Shoguns Prime chin was unreal. Same with JDS but his went downhill quickly unfortunately

Clay Guida in prime too.... hell even now he's still a sponge of damage.
