    You should tell that to the 29 guys that Cotto has stopped and the 27 guys that Margarito has stopped. They evidently didn't get your memo. :rofl

    Tell me how the hell does stepping on Pac's foot and then pushing with your hand can be used as an insinuation that Pac's been knocked down by Mosley, by throwing it as an argument on a thread that compares chins?

    Idiot. :!: (this icon fits you nicely, btw)

    Margarito and Cotto have stopped or knocked out who with one punch at WW?

    Margarito is an accumulation puncher who walks people down and stops them via volume of CONCRETE WRAP LOADED punches.

    Cotto is a boxer (occasionally counterpuncher)

    Neither stops people through one punch power and you know this, taking shots from either does not prove you have an iron chin and you also know this

    from what we seen so far floyd has good chin he took some solid shots and stay on his feet, I think i would say manny has weaker chin

    It's very difficult to argue that way as well.

    He's been knocked down by lesser fighters but he's taken most of the best punchers of the world but didn't went down. Do you seriously think guys like Hussein and Yeshmagambetov are better punchers like Marquez, Barrera, Morales, Hatton, Cotto, Mosley and Margarito? They're not even as accurate strikers as the latter are.

    Even if they fight won't necessarily mean one has the better chin. unless they have exactly the same punching power etc how would you judge?

    Evcen if Manny knocked Floyd out most people would say he hits harder anyway.

    Mosely was so negative against Manny hard to judge as common opponent.

    i can definetly say Manny hits harder but Floyd gets hit a hell of a lot less. Hard to say

    I also know that both guys are big, strong, heavy-handed fighters who have both stopped some really good, tough fighters, and that no significantly smaller fighter should be able to eat their best shots as if they were nothing.

    Honestly, I can't believe this is even being put up for debate.

    Agreed. If there was a thread about who had the better jab to the body or who had the best defence, I'd have no trouble saying Floyd, as he has clear edges there. Dunno why others can't do the same when the answer is so obviously Pacquiao, as it is here.

    People forget Mosley took those PEDS his whole career so for his skill to decline as well as him not being able to use his special drugs he got weaker. Fact that Floyd got hit by the strongest WW in the division and got wobbled means one thing.






















    Shane Mosley is ****ing strong. Who would've thunk it?

    Keep in mind that is a drained Manny. At his natural weight he has a better chin. Both were hit by Mosley recently. One was wobbled.
