    Keep in mind Floyd has never been decked or KO'd in his career. Duran has been dropped a few times and KO'd / stopped.

    the way duran went down from hearns is indicative enough of who has a better chin. floyd has never gone down, hence, the ironchin.

    Yep, Floyd would have never gone down from a single shot like that.

    Duran at least had the decency to get hurt by punchers.

    if floyd fought hearns he would have been taken out just like duran, you see floyd get hurt from shots from guys like corley and a old mosley, when has he ever faced anyone as brutal as hearns?

    Floyd has better chin, no contest about that. Hearns knocked Duran out cold, you never see Floyd gets flush shots like that.


    ...and Floyd has better chin than Pac too.

    ..beat that *******S!!!

    one contention by a joyboy is that since floyd has not gone down, his chin is automatically better than everyone who has gone down.

    as an example, floyd has better chin than duran and margarito automatically

    Based on the shots I've seen him take, Mayweather chin eclipses LaMotta's. Obviously he has a better chin than Robert "Chin of Glass" Duran. Oh, and those who say Corley and Mosley rocked him...that's a complete myth. The canvas was slippery and he couldn't get his footing.

    Mayweather's never been knocked down c'mon, he's fought greats like Hatton at 147lbs and 38 year old Mosley coming off a 1 and 1/2 year layoff.

    Who has Duran fought 147lbs and above?

    Im serious:twisted::fire

    Floyd has better chin. defense=chin:deal

    You *******s dont seem to understand that, with when you have the best inpenetrable defense in the world, you have the greatest chin as Zakman implies. no assumption here, just facts.

    ..and Floyd never got MW-Floored.:deal

    Of course Floyd has the better chin!


    When has Floyd ever been dropped by a jab?


    Oh wait are we talking about Pacquiao?
