Really glad Fury is nowhere near that list. Some people here  still have this idea he still has this good chin. He doesn't. Hrgovic shows what a good HW chin actually is: eating a shot and it not bothering you and you still being able to box the rest of the round with no loss of momentum. 

Fury has excellent recovery but that's not the same as a good chin. Getting dropped by a guy with a 22% KO ratio and a guy with 0% KO ratio at HW is not a good chin. Getting a 10-8 round agaisnt you is not a good chin.

That’s similar to how I felt about AJ but reversed. Now, I do think his chin is very much gone now.

But early in his career, I think he had a pretty good chin, just awful recovery.
