    He has a good chin but its nowhere near iron in the comparison with people like Hagler, Lamotta, or even Vitali. Mosley was never a one punch KO artist in big fights. It took him a couple of punches to get a stunned Mayorga out of there. A prime Mosley hit Oscar and Forest flush with the same stuff and they were nohwere near a stunned.

    A prime shane hit oscar with the hardest looping right hands he ever threw and oscar didnt blink.

    A juiced up 154 mosley blasted oscar with some massive bombs and oscar felt it, but wasnt hurt AT ALL.

    An old shane hit miguel cotto(whos known for having a shaky chin) with 177 power punches, including many overhand rights, and cotto barely felt it, except for late in the fight a little.

    A Shot mosley hits antonio Margarito with 10,000 right hands and finally gets him out of there rd 9 after teeing off on an open face for 9 rds.



    Mosley with one foot in the grave hits lil floyd with 2 punches and nearly kills him.

    His chin is good. But it's not legendary like these Floyd fanatics like to claim. His defense is his bread and butter. He doesn't get hit cleanly a lot. So how does someone come to the conclusion it's world class? Simple...because that someone is obviously a ******ed Floyd fanboy.

    He seems to have a decent chin but its mostly his defense.
    Mayweather gets rocked by single shots that others would not even get stunned by.

    Margarito took non stop bombs for 9 rounds before he went down, Mayweather got rocked by a single shot from Mosely.

    Iron chinned yes but best ever? not even close. since he rarely gets hit flush it's hard to determine just where he ranks on the all time chin list, but then again he did star in Iron Chinned Warriors
