    What do you think the chances are that Floyd stops him?

    I think JMM is definitely vulnerable, especially considering the size difference.

    i think marquez's chin is solid. just because he's gotten knocked down he's always managed to get up and finish the fight. i rate a fighter's chin suspect or poor when he gets knocked out and marquez has yet to get ko'd.

    He's been in there with the hardest punchers. He has amazing recovery skills, and his chin is above average. It' not Titanium like Chavez, ODLH, or Margarito, but it's above average.

    true, true. chavez, de la hoya and margarito had/have great chins. but i think shane mosley might have softened margarito's chin a bit.

    usually when a solid chinned fighter like margarito suffers a devastating knockout like that usually renders him more vulnerable for more ko losses.

    He has amazing recuperative powers. I think his chin is good but his recuperative powers make it 1000x better.
     
  9. Marquez has a solid jaw, and FM dosen't have the power to stop him..

    This fight has decision written all over it..

    People said the same thing about the Hatton fight...and Juan Diaz was able to wobble JMM and hurt him and Floyd has 3x the power of Diaz.

    If Floyd hits Juan square on the chin with a strong right hand, especially if Juan is lunging in, he can drop him.

    True, but you can rest assured that JMM will get right back up.

    At 130/135 it's solid but capable to knock downs certainly, at 147 I think plenty of guys have enough power to stop him, including Floyd.

    JMM has an good chin, it's his recovery that is impressive though. I can see Floyd dropping him, but having a hard time finishing him off.
