    I think I was most impressed the way he took Castillo's right hand near the end of the seventh round of their first fight. Castillo finished quite a few fighters with that same punch and Floyd just smiled at him.

    The only part of Floyd that wasn't durable was his hands.

    The guy who was rocked by feather fisted Demarcus Corley and a shot Mosley yeah ok !

    The only reason he never suffered a KO loss is because he avoided any real threats in their prime !

    Floyd had a good chin but its also a result of him usually moving away from punches. I give him credit he can take a punch but lets not get crazy with all this moseley huge puncher thing. He could punch but he was no Tito especially at age 60 when he fought floyd.

    @ MVC Floyd has retired already then his stories will become fewer and fewer to talking about. So who is your next hero to take his place?

    Or are you going to keep praising him in 20 more years from now?

    Mosley always lied about his age. He was 137 years old when he fought Mayweather. :deal

    Yes, Mayweather was especially most terrified of Margarito after Mosley beat him into submission.

    He has a good chin, but it's hard to gauge due to him being a brilliant defensive fighter.

    Sometimes people will bring up someone having a stoppage loss as evidence that someone's chin is weaker. I've even heard it mentioned after Mosley-Maragrito, which is amazingly dumb considering the fact that Margarito's head and body were basically a punching bag for Shane all night. And some other fighters go into defensive shells and a lot of emphasis on surviving the distance, while others will take the risk and really go out on their shield.

    I think very few junior middleweights could, especially since Duran was already hurt to begin with.

    Not when Floyd fought him... He was blood drained.:deal

    I would be scared for Floyd getting hit by Shane when he had unnatural power.
