I believe the answer is:

take it on the chin

(Other definitions for take it on the chin that I've seen before include "But would featureless wonders > face adversity thus" , "as a boxer might?" , "facing razor blade?" , "face the situation stoically" , "Accept defeat stoically" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
