    Non of which is remotely true.

    Why could Floyd not knock a glass chin fighter out?

    Well at what weight are we talking about? If it's 122-126 then yes I would agree. At those weights he was a genuine banger one of the hardest punchers in decades p4p at that weight. At 130 he's a decent puncher, but not concussive. 135 Diaz had no trouble with Pac's power, it was the volume and speed. In fact the only time Pac has looked like a really heavy puncher above Featherweight was against Hatton who decided to serve up his nose on a platter, repeatedly walking in like a deranged lunatic.

    In fact, I'd say that Pacquiao at 147 and higher is downright featherfist. His lone KO at that weight or higher was against shot Lucas M.

    Pacquiao is actually heavily overrated H2H at WW. He beat Cotto, a good, but not great WW. I'd say Pac has no shot against any great WW in their prime ever.

    I mean a guy like Trinidad? Are you serious? He would have torn off Pacquiao's head. Would have separated it from his body.

    Pac threw less punches, he was fighting scared the ENTIRE FIGHT!!

    Floyd was dishing it out on his ass and beat his ass 118-110!! That's a FACT!!

    Pac has been in wars.

    Khan gets buzzed by the likes of Paulie.

    That's one scorecard out of the 3.

    But again if one is going to troll you should at least realise that by saying Pacquaio is packing glass yet Floyd never remotely hurt him....so in essence you are trolling Floyd more than you are Pac.

    Wrong again, he hurt him in r1/11 etc etc, Pac was afraid of that right hand and that's why he refused to throw. That's boxing, bruh.

    Fact.

    It's certainly not iron!

    Iron mandibled fighters don't get knocked cold by 40 year old men. Mike Alvarado survived just as hard of a punch.

    Dude, he fought a murderers row of great boxers with high KO%, most of them naturally bigger than him and got KO'd by jumping into a perfect (God, it was so beautiful I'm getting misty thinking about it), calculated for and practiced straight overhand right counter thrown by a fellow HOFer.

    And if you bring Floyd into our convo to compare and then aggrandize, that will be the last time we interact.

    Pac was scared of Floyd`s right hand so wouldn`t throw that much and Floyd wasn`t able to land his right hand much, boring fight.

    It's not Price/Khan level GLASS, but it's 100% not iron- I'd say it's probably closer to paper mache. It's a below average chin at best. Khan's power is also good at 154, could see him knocking Pacquiao out!

    The question was who was more vulnerable. Most people want to discuss this. Both fighters are prone to knockouts!

    Again no facts but Floyd couldn't hurt/drop Or indeed stop an alleged glass chinned fighter.

    Floyd has little girl hands.

    Pac was never knocked out at lightweight like Khan was in one round, Hatton had a better chin than Khan!
