    Discuss? Tho neither has ever been knocked out to the head.
    (They have been both T.K.O.'d by the same fighter)

    IYO, which fighter has the best punch resistance?
    Why?

    I didn't see Kermit broken down physically by the pressure the same way Cotto was, so I will say Cintron.

    You're right, he was broken down a lot quicker.

    Cotto by far. Margoarito put cintron on the mat twice. Big ko style. Cotto absorbed far more punishment than Cintron does.

    It's hard to say, Cintron has fought a lot of average to below average fighters. His chin was really only tested against Margo and he failed. However, Cotto seems to get wobbled every fight. He's constantly stumbling all over the ring.

    He got KO'd with a body shot, we are talking about chins, right? I never remember seeing Kermit stunned and on ***** street like Cotto was, especially from the head shots he took from Margarito, maybe my memory is shot though.

    If Cintron fought the guys Cotto has we wouldn't say anything good about Kermit, I'll pick Cotto any day.

    Cotto's chin isn't great. But he has great recovery skills in my opinion which makes up for it. He seems to get stunned and rocked a decent amount of times but before Margarito only had one knock down and it was a bit of a shove.

    No he wasn't. He quit in the first fight.
