Mosley let him off the hook. Younger boxers w/ the caliber of Pacquiao and Williams would have jumped on that opportunity for a KO. Pac w/ his combinations would have finished Floyd off. Same w/ Williams. They would never Floyd time to recover with their volume of punches.
Reminded me of when Calzaghe got caught by Hopkins and Jones, I thought him recovering and coming back showed his chin was good as was his recovery powers in both fights, similar to how I feel about Mayweather getting caught last night.
When a fighter gets knocked down, or gets knocked out or gets hit and then becomes defensive all night, thats a chin fail. Floyd did neither he got hit, he was hurt but he dealt with it, very well I might add! Are you forgeting that Pacquiao has been hurt AND down before! So has Paul Williams, PBF has not, so really by your own logic PBF has the best chin of them all! LOL BTW anyone who knows anything about boxing knows that a fighters power is the last thing to leave him, thats even if I subscribe to the idea Shane got old over night!
Mayweather showed great surivival skills,by grabbing and evading the followup for as relentless as Manny is i dont think he would have been able to put the finishing touches toghether.
Pac's chin has been tested solid in the welterweight. He got knocked out when he was in his teens but these were body shots and not on the chin.
i thought floyd reacted brilliantly to the big shots - steadied himself, hung on, hands high and did not give his opponent a perception of being really shaky so didnt get chased down. wish he would lose but have to admit hes a ****ing master at all facets of the craft.
The fact is PBF chin is fine, if you want to try and convince yourself his chin is made of china then fine, because he put in a great performance, then more fool you! The guys who you are saying would beat May would fail the chin test by your standards so there is as much chance of them being knocked out as knocking out PBF! You are just a hater, can't give no credit no matter the circumstance!
