    He had several. If only Khan had Morales chin :lol:, Morales had a rock hard chin. But even a rock can break open if you hit it often enough.

    Morales trained under Mayweather Sr in the year 2000. That was also when he sparred Mayweather Jr:

    'In 2000, I was training for a fight in Texas and sparred three or four rounds with Mayweather. Mayweather’s father Floyd Sr. was my trainer and got me to spar with his son. I had him groggy and reeling but he never went down.'

    ( http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...exico-erik-morales-got-floyd-mayweather-offer )

    The Texas fight he's talking about is probably the one against Kevin Kelley.

    I think it was the Rene fight where Tijuana did a bit of shoulder rolling along the ropes. He said Joy Sr taught him some stuff that he began to use at his advanced age

    Morales told Sr. that shoulder roll was for coward and showed Sr. the chin roll.
