    Your question didn't specify heavyweights-->-->"Who had the best chin of all the "punchers" in history? Is it Ike?".

              Well if Ike makes the comeback that's rumored to happen, we'll see just how strong his chin really is. Until then, I go with McCall, with shouts to Foreman and Holyfield as well, since Holy only went down from exhaustion in the third Bowe fight and from a shot to the back of the head in the first Bowe fight.

                Maybe ,but McCall never took 15 unanswered shots by Holyfield or decapitating ones from a Tommy Morrison left hooks which only stunned him for a split second,as well as huge Cooney left hooks, Bert cooper and so forth. I don't believe other than lewis who never really got a full fledged over hand right on McCall fought hard punchers like foreman did. He was Tysons sparring partner but that's sparring.

                  McCall fought till he was 50,,, fought everyone on the block, and was never even stunned,,,

                  I saw him live in 2005... It was the undercard of Rahman-barrett in Chicago, and Golata was supposed to fight a young Polish heavyweight.. Last minute Golata withdrew, and McCall took his spot on short notice,,, McCall came out to the most gangster music ever, proceeded to eat shots from the young polish heavyweight, but 4th rd Oliver caught him and it was lights out...

                  Best chin ever, and proven over 4 different decades


                  Atomic bull would make Ike bytch out

                    Best combination of power and chin is probably Tua. Foreman was stunned a few times in his comeback and dropped by relatively light hitters in his first iteration.

                    McCall, if you consider him a puncher, would have to be up there. Impossible to KO that guy.

                      Tommy Ryan must have had a great chin and he was no slouch in power they say. Les Darcy never knocked down once in his career and he hit very hard. The problem with most big punchers is that they tend to take a lot of risks trying to get that big one in, maybe Darcy and Ryan were very smart fighters who had the big punch and also had patience. Thing is, no matter how good the chin all can be knocked out if they keep making mistakes. Mike Tyson is one, his chin could take some big punches but he would stop moving his head and then got nailed over and over again, there is simply a limit for all men.

                      Marciano's chin was out of this world good, he only ever went down twice and both because it was the beginning of the fight and was a bit cold, but when he warmed up... lookout.
