What makes Mayweather frightening is that he also possesses a granite chin

    It's crazy. With his impenetrable defense, the man simply can't lose.

    Mr. Floyd Joy Mayweather Sinclair's chin is pure granite. 17 years in the sport and has never went down, never knocked out. He was hit with 2 massive punches by Mosley and didn't touch the ground. He even won the remainder of the ground.

    He came out in round 3 and completely demolished Mosley. One of the most dominating rounds ever.

    You think his BD gives him the power he needs to succeed?

    He is second to none in bobbing weaving and ducking... It's unfair. Who can hit that...

    I like the straight right against mosley.

    In one slow mo replay, you see his face during a straight right. His face is like his annoyed.

    Fight should of been stopped, but you cant stop greatness.

    Zab Judah knocked Floyd down, although the ref missed it.

    You cant win on a technicality. If so, then the ref didnt rule it a knockdown therefore it wasnt one :deal

    Chin is not really a huge part of his game. He barely ever gets hit, although it's true that when he does, it holds up well as seen against Hatton, Judaz and Mosley. But it's not been a big factor in his career at all.

    he has a weak chin, just not tested enough.

    He's from a family of disgraceful glass jaws. It's in his DNA.

    He will be on his back before all is said and done, mark my words son !

    Yes it is. It acts as a final wall of his defense.

    Even if one man gets a punch through, it's not fight ending as his chin is granite.

    Mosley got through, Zab got through and his chin was simply too good.

    It's very discouraging for his foes.
