Yeah it should have been in giga chin obviously but Actually I think he was right about his chin not being built for lightweight. He did actually get dropped for the first time in his career by Justin and in the second Dustin fight he was definitely getting rocked. I think instead of being literally invincible like at feather weight lightweight max holloways chin will just be really really really good.
Higher weightclass chins are much more impressive than a guy fighting for the most part not very hard hitting fw fighters if Max doesn’t get knocked out by Gaethje or Ilia then maybe he has the best chin ever
It's not the same, if you cut more pounds you are easier to be finish. Poirier case is like Poatan case, that's why he is tougher in light heavyweight.
Tony only got knocked out in his late 30s by the front kick of the century. Nobody on this planet could have stayed standing in that Gaethje fight except him. Demoting max when he’s never been dropped is insane
These lists are always missing Blagoy Ivanov. Dude has the most monstrous chin in UFC history. He was eating blows left and right from monstrous heavyweights like Lewis, JDS, Tuivasa and didn't even come close to being finished
You forgot about Kelvin Gastelum vs Izzy.. That showed Izzy Has an INSANE CHIN.. Poatan has the most power p4p in entire ufc & yet Izzy was still alive during the TKO loss.. Izzy has a pencil neck 😂 but he still can take major strikes to the head.. *Izzy's chin is S Tier.*
100% Izzy's chin is next lvl. Those Alex fights really showed it also. It might be a little cracked though. I think he didn't come out of those Alex fights with his Chin completely intact.
Gastelum has more losses at MW, than wins, that fight just makes Izzy look terrible it didn’t age well. Your making Gastelum sound like Hendo when he was never that good at MW just some fat guy
I'd argue Tony still has an B tier chin the problem is the CTE has caught up so the brain function isnt there to begin with hes punch drunk but i feel the chins still there...saying that he should retire i dont want to see/hear of him dying on TV or before hes 50 with all the trauma
Should have put Khamzat, Kevin Holland, DDP and Shavkat too and you also forgot everyone below Featherweight lol. Also Bruno Silva got knocked down by GM3 and Brendan Allen too before getting subbed. No mention of Jamahal Hill who has an insane chin. Same with Jon Jones and Ngannou.
As a Volk fan I thought considering he has 2 Kos and the people you put him next too it may be too high. Tbf his chin may not be busted, simply that he got Kod on short notice and then too soon of a turn around and therefore if he heals he’ll be all g, but I dunno man, I’m scared his chin is gone
Jiri Procházka was finished in UFC for the first time and he fought against hard hitters like Glover and Volkan. Before UFC he was in many wars where he was hit hard but still, he was able to recover so I don't get hit point
“Justin has such a weird chin dude“ yeah both aesthetically and In durability 😅 btw if you close your eyes a little bit it looks like Ian Garry has Bunny ears it’s not looking like it’s his fists 🐰
Max was never been KNOCKDOWN in his entire career considering he's been fighting championship level fighters. He even go to a higher weight class. Max should be in Chad tier
This guy is such a casual oml. He puts Silva at S tier after looking at his record and seeing he's been submitted but doesn't even know that he got knocked down by Meerschaert and Allen. And Poirier at B tier and Max fucking Holloway at A tier lol
tony was giga chin before chandler put him out. tbh id still put him in low b, cause you gotta consider how many clean shots he ate from gaethje whose the hardes hitter in that division right now and didnt get put down once
“I don’t think he has a chin for lightweight” dawg he’s a featherweight for 1, and 2, he’s absorbed the most sig strikes ever. Also, he was getting CLIPPED by Dustin but never dropped. Cmon bro, max is the giga Chad goat. You can’t rank him on a fight that didn’t happen yet, that’s like actually the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard
I like your tierlists but its pretty strange to rank people based on whom they got knocked out by rather than the shots they took without getting knocked out. Izzy definitely has a good chin but its definitely not better than the chin of many people from this list simply because Izzy doesn’t get hit as much as people like Dustin Poirier or Jiri Prochazka. Also a bit weird to bring Jiri down because he got knocked down by a perfect upkick to the jaw from another light heavyweight
I don't understand why Tony is low C. Who could take the damage he took against Gaethje on 2 weight cuts and 180 opponent fight style changes and stand? Who could have taken that Chandler kick? And he still has not been KO/TKO as an old washed-up man since Chandler HE IS 40. He was KO/TKO twice against Gaethje where he was still standing and the kick from Chandler.
i immediately got turned off by your max placement. max has never gotten finished via strikes. dober has gotten finished. sure max got rocked but he was up a weight class. if any one of these fighters moved up they’d be rocked as well. you’re also saying that he’s there for the chance that’d he’d get finished “in the near future”
I've been saying this but nobody understood. Sean got KOd by Alex Pereira who is one of the top strikers if not the best in the UFC, who has ungodly power and finishes alnost anybody he fights. Can't say he has a bad chin off of that
the eddie alvarez fight for gaethje he got finished by a body shot. he actually has never had been finished from being chinned, and the only time i saw his chin crack was the oliveira fight, A is fair though
Jiri has an A or S chin it's just he has little defense. Rakic cracked him and did nothing. Alex just has the most power and torque out of any fighter.
You're missing some of the best chins in the UFC. Jones for example has a god tier chin. He has never been rocked from what i recall. other examples are Chito and holland, Both look functionally immortal. And the fact that you didn't put Max on S tier invalidates this entire list
He really doesn’t Ilia didn’t even finish him w strikes. His striking sucks so he gets hit a lot but he usually eats them like when he fought Ige who’s one of the few featherweights w one punch KO power
Seems like a casual Zabit almost lost to Kattar cuz he gassed and also Bruno Silva got knocked down by GM3 and Allen. No mention of DDP, Holland, Costa or Chito Vera. Put Chinny Whittaker in B tier lol when Costa did not follow through with the wheel kick and got him wobbled. Also no mention of Jamahal Hill who has an insane chin and Where is Shavkat or Khamzat?. Same with Jon Jones and Ngannou.
I should have clicked away the second you put Volk at a B after two KO’s (one of which was at a higher weight class on short notice) after a career of eating shots
Usman don't belong on here. He was wobbled and hurt by Colby multiple times in BOTH their fights. Colby had Usman wobbled with just 1 punch. Colby is the LIGHTEST puncher in the 170 pound division.
You can’t put Justin above Dustin… the head kick was an exception… Justin is wobbled and put in skates every fight Atleast 1x if not 2x… Dustin is never even hurt. And bro… Charles is terrible chin.
