That punch from Fujita to Fedor would have put most people down cold just like Karam Ibrahim.

IMO Nog has a better chin, but Fedor will slip more shots... so it's a moot point.

yes, i think fedor's chin is as good as nog's. fedor just never has to test it because he is hardly ever in danger of losing. in other words, he doesnt' put himself in a position to get beat on like nog does.

He withstood the Randleplex. Nuff Said.

Fedor has an excellent chin, and his recovery speed is almost instant.

With Small Shots? I think it was Tim who was pushing the pace and trying to keep his distance. Vera tried to outmuscle him and get into the clinch because every time Tim got a little seperation he unloaded with combos and Vera got worried. That's why the crowd Boo'd Vera and not Big Tim.

I think Nog has a better chin than Hunt actually...In K-1 Hunt ate a huge LHK from Mirko that floored him. If it were in an MMA fight Mirko would have easily TKO's him like Aleks. Nog ate a LHK, and while he fell down never looked like he was in serious trouble.

Fedor has been been wobbled by that Fujita right and that Cro Cop double left when he gave him that nose shot. Fedor has a great chin, but he is so good at avoiding punches that his chin is underrated. I think anyone that maintained their title so long in Pride facing the kinda guys he did without getting KO'd has a great chin. It's hard to compare the two, but I would have to give it up to Nog for the best chin in the business.
I don't think Herring kicks as hard as Crocop.

Nobody can take punishment like Nog, that guy literally has had years taken off his life in some fights. Just watch the Crocop fight. With that being said Fedor has an awesome chin and I think can take Tim's best.

We well just have to wait and see if Tim can lay him out, but don't worry Tim will test his chin, and we will know whats up
uh, Semmy + Mirko + Hunto are ALL much better strikers than Tim as is HMC IMO. HMC's Wrestling >>> Tim's. What do you mean by wrestling though, TD Defense? Cuz Tim never shoots in for the TD himself...and imo, Mirko's TD defense >>> Tim's.

Tim's gonna have a hard time landing that big right off his back...he'll be subbed in rnd 2.
