    Gatti managed a left hook on floyd against the ropes, to the body and the head. Every fighter gets tagged no matter what.

    Floyd's chin is a lot like Roy Jones Jr.'s in his prime. He appears to take a prety good shot, but we hardly ever see him get clocked so you can't fully assume his chin is good. A lot of people thought Roy's chin was top notch and then once he slowed down and started getting hit it was straight to ***** street for his ass.

    Look at the corrley fight, mayweather has a iron chin he took some shoots, and that was Floyds first fight at 140 against a ex champion who only lost one fight in 8 years and that was at the hands of Zab via split decision. Floyd fought out of character and the guy has a great chin. Hoya landed his famous left hook flush at 154 Mayweathers first fight at 154 and it didnt faze Floyd. Floyd is one of the most hated underrated fighters of all-time

    I agree:good because he is so hated it clouds peoples judgement he has dominated easily 39 of 40 fights and won all 40 against 17 ec champions....ok he may not quite have pacs resume although it is still debatable but he has ZERO losses and does not fight bums....and his wins are just so onsided...he has prob lost 30 rds at most in 40 fights...and u can add another 10-12 winning rds when he fights pac

    LOL at you ............Roy hardly got tagged because he fought despite his tremendous abilites **** opposition for the majority of his career.

    Once you step out of Pacland you would realize that a prime Roy got knocked down and momentary hurt by a B level fighter who was not by any means a powerpuncher, not even close.

    Roy knew his chin was mediocre..............

    how do u know this...u CAN assume his chin is good until he gets hurt....he is not RJJ...u don't know what his chin is like so until he gets hurt it has to be assumed it is good or he is just the greatest defensive fighter ever with a weak chin....either way is fine

    There is a flip side to good defense and that is if he does get hit by a hellious shot, he prolly doesn't even know how to respond bc he is not used to it, but i don't it. He does a lot of neck muscle excercises.

    This is going to be an awkward ass fight. We have one man moving in different angles in and out jumping side to side and then we have the other man retreating, ducking, I dont think anyone is gonna land flush exept for Floyd landing alot of jabs.

    Ali damn good chin down 4+ times
    SRR down 6 times all time great chin
    SRL down 7 times all time great chin
    Shane mosley down 3 times great chin
    hagler down 2 times all time great beard
    oscar de la hoya down 6 times great beard
    just to name a few. Floyd has a damn good chin.. the best question to ask how will pac take Floyds shots especially the ones he doesn't see

    yeah he should just not be so good at defense...i am SURE he has been hit with hellious shots in his 40 fights and thousands of sparring rds....he knows how to deal with it
