Boxing is often called the art of hitting without getting hitβ¦but it is inevitable you are going to get hit if you are fighting, the old saying goes βif you step in to a shower, you are going to get wet β if you step in to the ring, you are going to get hit.β Whilst it is in your best interests to limit the number of clean shots you take, there will come a time someone is going to land a clear blow on you, and when that does come ringing, you want to have a granite like chin that can take the punishment.

Everyone looks at the knockout puncher, the boxer who holds power in his hands is celebrated, a force to be reckoned with and he strikes fear into the hearts of his opposition. But if any boxer does not have a chin, their potential will never be reached because in a sport like boxing, you have to be able to withstand punishment just as well as you can dish it out. Boxing is full of stars who held dynamite in either hand, but that chin just didnβt match up to their hand skills and despite achieving success, they fell short of their sublime talent. Julian Jackson was one such name, sure he was a very good boxer and one of best punchers the sport has ever seen, but a suspect chin held him back from reaching the lofty heights he could have climbed had his chin been a little stronger. In todayβs era we have the speed merchant Amir Khan. Khan possesses blinding speed and is very rarely out-boxed due to this trait, but on a few occasions his lack of concentration and chin have let him down, like Jackson he was a world champion but the ability to take those hard shots has been fleeting and thus despite becoming a world champion, a man of his speed and skills could have become so much more. In this article I am going to have a look at some of the many names who possessed a chin so good, there was more chance of hurting your hands punching them than hurting their heads. This isnβt a definitive list, and neither is it ranked in order, there are too many boxers to mention here but these are the ones who come into my mind when I think βGranite Chinβ.
