    It's hard to say really

    Neither have stood up to shots from huge punchers at WW (Floyd was smart enough to hold Mosely after the big right he landed, but he was obviously hurt, but then, I'm not sure who wouldn't have been)

    Don't think Manny has been knocked down since the fight with Serikzhan Yeshmagambetov in 03, and his chin has obviously improved since then. But then who has tagged him?

    Pacquiao. He never gets spaghetti legs from single shots like Floyd has done vs Corley and Mosley.

    A 165lbs Margarito with a flush uppercut, a 150-160lbs Cotto with a flush hook, I think he's proved his whiskers, guy didn't even wobble to either.

    If you are basing it off of the Mosely fight it's well worth noting Manny looked so '****' against Shane largely because he was scared of that one right hand.

    I'm not sure Manny has been hit with a harder punch than what Floyd was rocked by Shane with, please give examples?

    Margarito is hardly a power puncher, neither is Cotto

    (I'm not saying his chin is poor, it's obviously not)

    I don't think I want to continue this if you are trying to turn this into my dad can beat up your dad.

    The point I was making is that Pacquiao who is obviously a warrior was weary enough of taking a right hand from Mosely that it effectively made him look much poorer than he had in previous fights.

    I'm not sure who has more one punch power in a straight right than Mosely at WW.

    So a 155-160lbs Cotto doesn't hit as hard as a 140-150lbs Chop Chop Corley?

    Please. :bart

    Thats a foolish comparison, from the better part of a decade ago in a different weight class

    Does Marquez hit harder than Cotto (who didn't wobble manny)? Obviously not

    has Mannys chin improved over the last 8 years? Obviously. Does this mean Floyds couldn't have?.....

    Point being: Cotto does not have one punch ko power, neither does Margarito, taking shots from either of them doesn't indicate too much

    People are forgetting when Mosley sent Pacquiao sprawling helplessly to the canvas. Something he didn't do against Floyd..

    Shane Mosley is your answer kid.

    Watch what happened when he landed flush on Floyd.
    And then what happened when he landed flush on Pac.

    This is as fair and unbiased that it could get.
