    not at all. i would say he has an average to above average chin simply because he almost always manages to stay on his feet and he has a pretty amazing ability to recover quickly.

    Not only did he eat many of Margarito's shots, but Margarito was using loaded wraps in the fight.

    Average at best giving him the benefit of the doubt. He does get caught way too much for someone who wasn't made to absorb punches though.

    his chin is above average overall but within the class of fighters that he is ranked among, his chin is below average

    I think he has a decent chin. Ricardo Torres had him in serious trouble, yet, he survived it. Those shots by Margo would of knocked out anybody. It isn't great, but, it's definitely better than average.

    Very slightly above average. He took a sustained beating from Margo, and was finally KO'd on being knackered and desperate rather than being smashed onto the canvas.

    Disagree, Marquez doesn't get hurt when he gets KD. Maybe pac hurt Marquez with the knockdown in the second fight but Marquez didn't look hurt long if he was.

    Cotto still has a good chin.

    Clotty has better defense than Cotto and wasn't throwing in his fight with Margo. Williams did feel Margo's shots but he is ****ing Valvau for the Welterweights.
