Well, there's no proof he doesn't. His chin has never failed to live up to Nog's standard, but it's never been tested at the level Nog's has.

The shot Fedor took from Fujita would've had the same effect on Nog. Though Nog probably would've gone down from it. Not because he couldn't do the fish dance and stay up, but because staying on the feet or in top position just isn't as important to him. He'd feel safer on his back than dazed and standing.

Fedor will be fine. he always is.

Everyone talks about tim's striking and how Fedor hasn't seen that in a while. Fedor probably spars with Aleks everyday who is as good or better than sylvia.

The main thing is that Tim wont be able to land against Fedor.

Fedor doesn't need Nog's chin, he has better stand up. I think he could outsrike Tim if he wanted to.

I don't know why you think he has a weak chin.
exactly, plus he doesn't have to have as good of a chin as Nog b/c his striking is better which makes him get hit way less to compensate.

Fedor Is To Good In Transition For Tim, Fedor's Chin Cant Be Too Bad Hes Never Been Stopped Nog's Just A Monster...if Fedor Is In Good Shape Having A Long Layoff From Big Fights He Should Be Able To Take Over The Fight, His Hands Are To Good And His Sambo Will Be Something Tims Long Shots Wont Get Takedowns Off.....elbows Will Or Cuts Will Be The Only Way Tim Wins
