When a guy literally stands there and laughs at an opponent as they lay shots on him, there's a strong chance he's got a decent chin.

For Mark Hunt, that was so often the case - with him loud and proudly flaunting just how well he could take a punch.

The New Zealander is well known for the sheer abuse his chin can take. Considering some of the major heavyweights Hunt has gone up against, it's a testament to his granite jaw that he's not been knocked out more often.

Throw in the fact that Hunt's nickname is The King of Walk-Offs - due to his insane one-punch power famously dropping many an opponent - and you can see why he has been such a tricky opponent for so many UFC heavyweights.
