    Many times, He just stood there hands covering his face and took Cotto's shots.

    Granite/Solid/Glass?

    He has very good durability. He is not unbeatable nor is he unknockoutable, but he aint far off.

    Pacman wasnt hit flush on the chin guys, dont get carried away :nono

    He is definately a tough ******* with a durable body, but Cotto didnt land in the right spot.

    Cotto was a small enough welterweight. You couldn't get Margarito to get to 145. I like Manny's win, but I think a fighter with a right hand could have been big trouble for him. The last 3 fights have been left hook fighters. So is Mayweather. Better matchups for him. If they land, he is in position to land his quicker punches, but a long right hand he couldn't counter so easily.

    Don't get carried away.

    He's got a decent chin but he was definitely hurt by some punches and like Anton said, it was one punch at a time mainly.

    If I was in Pacman's corner against Mosley, I wouldn't want him trading openly.

    He was 145.8 against Mosley, I'm sure he could take off another 0.8lbs if he really needed to...

    Manny took Cotto's vicious body attacks. That is what impressed me more than his chin.
