    Well Mosley's chin was legendary. Trout being chinny may be a bit of an exaggeration, he had a mortal chin (not of granite), but not a particularly susceptible one. He took lots of shots from Canelo, and only that peach got him down, before he got back up, recovered, and did well the rest of the round. For a 170lb man, that has to translate into at least a solid chin at welterweight, and Floyd's chin is very solid, but like Trout's, mortal.

    Well most of Floyd's opponents do. And even if he does land, not every shot will be an atom bomb. It only takes one, but the right one needs to land.

    on the flipside, doesn FLoyd have enough power to make Canelo respect his punches?

    Alvarez has a suspect chin. Floyd punches were effective against Oscar and Mosley's iron chins

    What you may be forgetting is that there are users on a boxing forum that may know **** about boxing, recognising your FANTASIES for what they are.

    Floyd Maywheater has been knoccked down, once, and if he would have an iron chin he wouldn't be so obsessed in not getting hitted.
