Floyd's chin.

Froch?

 

He go dropped by Taylor and looked a bit dazed at the time.

Not good, but better than anything from the UK.
He will not endure Canelo's power though.

 

Are people really questioning Mayweather's chin? He's been fighting at a championship level for 15 years across 5 divisions and he's only had one knockdown scored against him, and that wasn't really even a knockdown. There's only been like 3 or 4 times where he's looked visibly shaken. I think it's safe to say that he has a good chin.

 

Well, i give it an 8. Think that Mayweather took 2 of those same big Mosley shots that ****'d up iron chin Margarito

 

I think people want's to know can he take a solid shot from Canelo because I don't know why would someone as this at this stage of his career.

 

Jones never went down until he get KTFO against Tarver. Not being knocked down doesn't mean that you are packing an iron chin. If Floyd fought Manny back in 2009 and stood up to some bombs than I would say he has a iron chin. Right now I would agree with the consensus, it is probably a 6-7. He was rocked against Judah, Mosley, and Corley. In other words, I think his chin is decent but not great.

 

I'm not sure if people on here really understand the sport. It's boxing, you're going to get hit. Mayweather clearly has taken good shots through his career and reacted well. What more proof do you need that a guy has a good chin? You mention Jones, but many guys lose their punch resistance as they get older along with many other attributes. If Jones getting knocked out at age 34 proves he has a bad chin, than Pacquiao getting knocked out cold, put to sleep, at age 34 proves he has an atrocious chin.

 

But Floyd has developed some strength as he goes through several divisions over the years right? :think

 

Its called good defense

 

When he is clobbered (which is rare) he hangs on and is almost never in any imminent danger. It'd say he's got a pretty good chin.

 

Go and watch that round, by the end of the round he was waling Corley down just like he did to Mosley.

So that's two times he has been cracked and rocked and both times he did exactly what you're supposed to do, hold on, clear your head and then give it back.

Below average for an elite fighter.. haha what the **** does that mean for all the rest of the elite fighters who have been KOED, dropped, and hurt several times ?

Wait there, where the **** does that leave the likes of Pac, Morales and MAB.. ? haha All have which proved time and time again they have got great chins.

Mosley fight showed me it was iron, even more impressive is his recover ability and survival instincts.
