Nog has the best chin, the best hearth. He has great Honor.

No shat. Nog is a stonehead, but Mark Hunt has taken a full on LHK from cro cop in Pride and K-1 that would have killed most normal people.

I agree with two of them. But I would take out fedor and put in Fujita...Also honorable mention are Hendo, Anderson, Bigfoot...

If you guys wanna see some insane punishment but had the heart to keep fighting on, watch hunt vs kohsaka and hunt vs nishijima

No doubt Hunt's chin is actually insane. Many mauri's and samoans have good chins and harder heads but his is in a world of its own,



Nig still has amazing chin too but not the best, probably equal to hendo except when nog is rocked non stop he knows what to do if ends up on the floor , he always prevails. except vs the emperor

I can't remember BJ's chin being tested all that much, anyways. Don't get me wrong - great fighters can avoid the damage.

I believe that sometimes when Nog gets "knocked down" it's half because he wants to go down. What I mean is he gets rocked by a punch or kick and could remain standing if he thought that was the best way to escape the danger (like most fighters would), but he instead chooses to go down because he's so confident of his ground game. We saw him go down like that against Sylvia and Herring, who both refused to follow Nog to the ground, therefore giving him the time he needed to fully recover.

There may be a few more fighters out there with chins as great as Nog's (and yes, Hunt's is better I'd say), but it's hard to say for sure because so few have taken the punishment he has and survived.
