I've seen Patrick Cote take a lot of big shots and stay on his feet. He's the first guy that popped into my head.........uh, no pun intended.

probably Big Nog. after i saw him survive those Fedor beat-downs and even his fight with Tim Sylvia where he weathered the storm and locked in his submission is a clear example. i have seen this man endure more punishment and still WIN...nevertheless keep going so imo he is definitely the man for this argument.

Fedor should be there IMO, But Big Nog takes the cake for sure....
doesnt matter what he gets hit with (sylvia's right hand, Mirko Left kick, Sapp slams, Herring's kick) he never gives up, and is willing to take punishment to be able to get into a better position, and seems to always find a way to win, with the exception of Fedor, thats because Fedor never stops, Never thinks he has it till that bell rings, or the ref steps in, but most seem to think they have it won, than they let their guard down a little,and its almost a guarantee that Nog is gonna take advantage of it.

Honorable Mentrions: Rampage, Wandy, Griffin.

Mark Hunt. Even though he never took that much damage in his MMA fights, his K-1 fights against Jerome Le Banner showed him to have just about the hardest head on the planet.

As far as regular and current MMA fighters go, Nogueira is about as tough as they get. People wallop him until it looks like he couldnt possibly have any fight left, then he comes out of nowhere and submits them. Unless he fights Fedor of course, then he just gets walloped!

Yea, His fight with sefo was nuts too (also another tough SOB). Hunt is willing to take shots so that he can get inside.

Big nog. Seems like every fight he gets rocked, but regains himself and comes out with the win.

Sean Salmon, Bo Cantrell, Ken Shamrock.

Seriously though, I would say Clay Guida, Stephen Bonnar, Big Nog, Gabe Gonzaga, Chris Leben, Randy Couture, and Nick and Nate Diaz.

Guida would have my vote, but not after his last fight. I would have to actually say Shamrock can take a hit though, at least in his day. Look back at Tito vs. Ken 1, Ken's face was swollen to hell yet he kept fighting.

I'm going to take a different approach to this question and say

Kazushi Sakuraba


This guy may not take as much damage in a fight as Hunt or Nog, but I think that he is one of the few fighters that have kept fighting with accumulative damage to his body over the years.
