    Nobody cares about Pacuaio anymore except his ******ed fans. After seeing him look mediocre in his last severl fights including getting spectacularly KTFO, most casuals now understand that he's inferior to Floyd. The boogeyman factor is gone, and thats the only thing that made him relevant.

    Forbes report had Floyd at approximately $85 million earned when he fought Cotto and Ortiz. This is before his guarantees with Showtime. Do you honestly believe he made less with the Canelo fight this year? When Floyd fights twice a year, he brings in cash. Plain and simple. Just FYI -- That is over 3 million PPVs sold last year for Mayweather. I don't think Showtime is concerned with their investment either.


    Do you typically live in Fantasy Land by the way? Or do you check into real life from time to time?

    Yes, contracts of this monetary magnitude exist in real life. Yes, Mayweather is making "guaranteed money" when he fights. I have no idea why that is so offensive to you.

    He can take a punch, that is without question.

    The question is, how can he take such a punch with those chicken legs?
    They're not Milton McCrory/Thomas Hearns like, but they're very skinny, yet he takes a good punch.

    Is he hiding glass, but rolls with punches, and thats why he's perceived as an iron chinned warrior?

    Holyfield had chicken legs too and had an iron chin. It's more general conditioning than legs in my opinion.

    Holyfield had a very good chin, but what was more remarkable was his recuperative abilities.

    They're somewhat in the same category, both men have taken huge punches, gotten hurt only to come back stronger!

    Come to think about it, Antonio Margarito who is renowned for taking punches, has chicken legs.

    All these guys mentioned do a great deal of roadwork, perhaps that has helped condition their legs and given them strength, despite their hilarious size.

    Floyd probably shot some xylocaines in his jaw just like how he does it in his hands.

    he has not proved he has a iron chin becouse he relies on his defence

    To be honest, I personally believe that ability to take a punch is a natural/genetic gift, it can't be taught or trained. Add to that top notch conditioning and you have an iron chin.

    There are countless examples out there of fighters that literally live in gyms but still can't take punches well. It's natural and serious conditioning is a bonus.

    I agree.

    It's somewhat like punching power, some people are born with it, others never achieve great punching power.
