http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6btc1MKsEk&feature=player_detailpage#t=505s I kinda noticed this before, but Ray seems to think that Floyd is vulnerable when getting caught on the temple and said it's more susceptible when you age [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d7i87WW-L0[/ame]
SRL was in a similar fight towards the end of his career... (When Leonard faced a young Lion named "Terrible" Terry Norris.) Could be SRL might be giving Floyd some heads up on what to expect.
maywaether never gets hit anyway so how would we know. I don't think his chin was ever that great to begin with.
I don't care how old you are or how tough you are: A good shot to the temple will mess up your equilibrium really bad and even affect your vision. (I couldn't see for a good 4 seconds or so when I took an elbow to the temple) Haven't taken a shot like that in a long time, so I wouldn't know from experience how age affects that. However, I don't see how your punch resistance will do anything but deteriorate as you get older. It's all about the ability to recuperate, and as you get older, recuperating is a slower process.
:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl But the guy in your avatar who has been stopped twice and rocked on numerous occasions has a chin of steel!!
your an idiot. when you get hit sometimes you can get hurt. Mayweather never gets hit. So to make a claim about his chin is pretty stupid, and the fact is when Floyd does get hit with good clean shot he looks bothered by it. Mosley hit him with basically two clean pucnhes, and both of them hurt him. Cotto took bombs from Mosley and he isnt known to have a great chin.
41 professional fights, and he's "never" been hit? Sure pal. You need to lay off the cocaine, it's a hell of a drug. Doesn't mean he's Jake Lamotta, but the guy certainly has a chin and wouldn't be where he is if that was a legitimate weakness. Every fighter gets hit. Every fighter gets hurt. That's boxing.
Yes I beleive the Green KO was on the temple .. But he has a point who else can we refrence ? When Manny hit Shane and dropped him was it on the temple can't remember ?
Maybe you should learn how to detect sarcasm numbnuts. Mayweather doesnt get hit enough to make any definitive claims about his chin. And the fact is he seems to get hurt when he does get hit with clean shots. The same kind of shots that many other fighters seem to eat up no problem.
