Suffer defeat stoically, as most boxers do? (4,2,2,3,4)
I believe the answer is:
take it on the chin
'suffer defeat stoically' is the definition.
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for take it on the chin that I've seen before include "face the situation stoically" , "as a boxer might?" , "Be courageous" , "But would featureless wonders > face adversity thus" , "facing razor blade?" .)
