Pac Vs. Floyd : Who's got the Tougher Chin...???

Pacquiao, clearly.

Mayweather has been all over the place from single shots from Corley and Mosley.

Pacquiao has not been hurt by a single shot to anywhere near the same extent. The only time he has been wobbled in the last few years has been in the second Marquez fight, but even then he recovered immediately, he did not need to hold on like a starving orphan like Floyd has done.

Watch round 7 of Morales-Pac 1. Pac has proven he can consistently eat shots from a strong puncher. Floyd has not proved this, all he has proved is that he can be put in dire trouble from single shots.

 

Popkins,

Is that the official poster for Pacquiao-Margarito?

 

What a performance.

That fight is still incredible to watch.

 

Pacquiao got tagged hard when he came off the ropes and lost his balance slightly. Wouldn't qualify it was a stun job, though.

 

A 130lbs Marquez hit very hard at superfeather vs other superfeathers.

A 147lbs Mosley hit very hard at welter vs other welters.

All in all, I'd say Mosley probably hit harder at his weight, but there's not all that much in it (Marquez clearly carried his power to 135, whereas Mosley has not really carried his to 154 whenever he has fought there, so although I give SSM the edge here there's not all that much in it).

Nevertheless, Pac has been hit cleanly more often than Floyd because he is a far less safety-cautious fighter, and his chin and punch resistance have been astounding as he has climbed the weights. Floyd was badly hurt by Mosley, and this was a poorer version of Mosley than the Mosley who failed to really hurt Cotto or Forrest at welter. Pac has eaten the best shots of guys like Barrera, Morales, Marquez, Hatton and Cotto, all at very good weights for these guys, and has emerged totally unscathed.

His chin credentials are undoubtedly superior to a guy who was given spaghetti legs by DeMarcus Corley. Corley ain't hurting Pacquiao in a month of Sundays.
