    Despite not being a huge fan, them shots he absorbed off Shane Mosley would have obliterated almost any other WW out. He had a great chin.

    Hats off to Mosley though too. Oscar said he was the hardest puncher and I believe it. Undeniable power.

    Glass Jawweather jnr

    How many rounds do you think Jawweather could have lasted vs GGG at 154 if he had had the guts to take it?

    I give him 2 tops

    Mosely - Shot to pieces still nearly put G. Jawweather out for the count :lol:
    Pac - shot to ****, TUE :lol:
    JMM - 3 weight classes smaller, weight undisclosed :lol:
    Hatton - Cortez tag team. Disgusting

    Again - how many rounds would he survive had he had the guts to take on the Kazakh? :think

    You could take a sledgehammer to it and it would never crack. Only DeMarcus Corely himself could ever possibly come close to cracking it.

    Mayweather also ate some big shots from Cotto.
    Floyd has a good chin AND it's hard to hit him flush. I'm sure if his opponents could have landed more shots Floyd would have been dropped more. He has been hurt against several opponents including pacman, maidana, Mosley. Floyd was knocked down once officially and once unofficially in the Zab Judah fight.

    All in all a good chin by Floyd.

    Hard to judge when he's not been hit very much compared to other stars/superstars of boxing. Better to say best defense then best chin. Fair to say he at least had a good chin though.
