Please, name fighters whould wouldn't have been KO'd by Márquez's punch

[nipplefloss]

As other people have said, any fighter who didn't lunge forward with his feet off the ground and his hands out to the side probably wouldn't get KOed by that punch because they'd never get hit with it.

Pac has a ton of bad habits that his athleticism provided cover for against opponents who didn't have the ability to exploit it. But Marquez isn't Cotto, or Margo, or a feather fisted Bradley. You make mistakes against one of the best counter-punchers ever and you're eventually going to pay for it.

Whether they would have put themselves in the position to be hit like that is not the question.

The question is: whose chin would have held?

[Garrus]

Duran.

Benitez.

DLH.

Mosley.

The question is stupid, because it begs the question of why anyone would throw themselves face first into another mans fist.

But even given the stupidity of the question I imagine the old Margarito would probably have weathered it. Maidana probably would too. But for the vast majority that punch is lights out.

Marquez?

To much talk about glass jaws on ESB, nobody gets up from that shot...

This is how a prime Margarito would have reacted to Marquez' punch

You can believe that, but since so few fighters are stupid enough to jump into a punch like that we will never really know.

It was a perfect shot -- timing, placement, speed, power.

Marquez is too damned good: http://c.mfcdn.net/store/manga/231/8...o_c824_p11.jpg

Pretty hard to specualte in that since Pacquiao hasn't been dropped for a LONG LONG TIME. Let alone hurt.
