    Pac has taken far many flush shots to the head in his fights pac has taken 1000 flush shots to the head and has gone down once to the head by a freak shot.........and him being a offensive fighter makes it even more impressive

    duckweather has taken a 5 flush shots the head and has wobbled in every one of those 5 shots................duckweather has not taken enough shots to the chin

    Exactly all we can say is Floyd definitely has better defense so he doesn't have to rely on his chin very much - so far so good.

    George Foreman, who's known for his power, at the age of 45yrs old KO Moore with a short almost jab type of punch. The power is the last to go. The fact Mosley was able to buckle Floyd, not once, but twice seconds after the first shot, shows you that he still has power. Keep in mind, before that fight he KO Margarito. Something Pac couldn't even do. As I stated above Floyd was hit within seconds, from the first hit Mosley caught him with, was buckle twice, and still gained his composure and started to dominate the rest of the round. These are facts, not assumptions or speculations just the facts.

    The definition of a glass jaw fighter, who relied on speed, reflexes and defense, was Roy Jones Jr. Floyd chin does not fit that bill.

    HW power is completely different to WW power. HW Boxing cannot be compared to any weight due to no weight restriction. As well as that Foreman is a top 5 ATG puncher if not top 3...can't bring him into it buddy :nono

    Pacquiao gets hit more often and he also gets hit with shots in succession more often than Floyd. Floyd is one of the greatest defensive fighters in the history of the sport and rarely gets caught clean with more than one flush hard shot at a time, whereas Pacquiao is a whirlwind of aggression who puts himself in the danger zone more often. Floyd holds a lot as well.

    I believe that prime for prime, Pac has the better chin, if you take into account his ringwars over the years, the fact that he's still at the very top says it all about his chin, with his style it's surprising he's only been stopped 3 times in 60 odd fights

    Mosley had enough power to KO Margarito. I would say he still had power.

    If Floyd didn't have a chin, that shot Maidana landed at the end of Round 3 would have dropped him. Hell, I'm still surprised it didn't drop him. That was a hell of a shot right on the sweet spot. By a fighter who out-weighed him by almost 20 pounds.

    Pac****s are in for a rude awakening. The disrespect Floyd gets is laughable.

    Bottom line is Floyd takes a great shot and Pac doesn't.
