    Margarito put up a good fight against Pac and he beat Garcia! Cotto didn't do **** to Tony in the re-match.. His eye was already ****ed!


    EDIT: Mosley had his number!

    He got his ass whooped by Pac, and brutally. It wasn't a good fight, at all. Garcia was a complete and utter joke. Cotto made him look like a fool, exactly what he was doing in the first fight, except for the fact that Margacheato didn't have loaded gloves and wasn't able to do a quarter of the damage that he did the first time around. The man has no skill and no power. All he has is a good Chin, an attribute which is highly overrated by his fanboys, and heart. He is a joke.

    Diego Corrales glass chinned, he was taking brutal shots until the fight with Floyd, where he came in weak trying to make weight. He was moving up to lightweight when Arum finally let Floyd fight him. I still remember before the fight they showed him eating a sandwich to try and get some energy. Diego had a great chin.

    Damn good fighter, Pure Glass Jaw, sorry. The last thing fanboys like to admit about their favorite fighters is that they have no Chin but in this case, it's just a fact. I was a big Corrales fan, too, but the man couldn't take a punch. Glass Jaws Exist in Boxing, Corrales had one.:deal:hi:

    Corrales chin was weird. Sometimes it looked solid, other times it looked weak in comparison. He walked through Acelino "Popó" Freitas best shots... but prior was getting KD all the time Mayweather hit him. The fights Casa and gets knocked down, but takes some good shots....

    You might add Mayorga/Forest (especially the first meeting) to that list.

    A recent one would be Antonio Demarco vs. Jorge Linares.

    Chivas Regal 12

    ODLH vs Fernando Vargas

    To quote Larry Merchant:
    "Vargas may have had a six pack in his stomach but he did not have a six pack in his chin." or something like that.

    Hearn's chin is underrated imo..
    Leonard was a pretty big threat @147 punch wise, Hagler was also a monster puncher and it was 2 divisions above Hearn's prime weight..
    Barkley was also a natural bigger man and was in his prime, where Hearns was on the decline..
