    Safe to say that Todd Foster ruined Jazzy Jeff long before Oscar TKO'd him.

    Roger Mayweather has been knocked out 6 times in his career beginning with a Rocky Lockridge 1st round KO.

    Floyd Sr. lost 2 times to TKO's.

    I believe that in Lil Floyds mind losing was not such a great thing and losing by KO was even worse. When you see that everyone in your clan has shaky chins why go out looking for someone to clean your clock early when you can slow them down and beat them?

    Floyd defensive style by family history alone is warranted. The worst we seen him in a 19 year career was against Mosley in 1 round and against Maidana at the end of the 4th round. THAT'S IT!!!

    Simply amazing on Floyds part, the man is unique. In these boxing families everyone was knocked out.
    1.Spinks family
    2.The Hatton family
    3.The Frazier family
    4.Jackson family
    5.Gatti Family
    6.Cotto family
    7.Klitschko family
    8. Pacquiao family

    You're almost right about that, but the real reason is that glass chins runs rampant in Mayweather family, and Floyd inherited it

    Floyd pretty much openly says as so.

    Hmmmm.. He's been caught flush on more than a few occasions by some big punchers & never went down.. Yet, he doesn't have a chin or by you clown's logic, it's made of glass? I see in 2016, logic still eludes casual boxing followers..

    Mayweather has a pretty good chin, it's somewhat hard to gauge because he's so brilliant defensively. He's taken some good shots here and there, but it's not like he's taken a lot of good clean shots to the head in any single fight. His opponents haven't been able to land them.

    Sometimes comparing a fighter's chin to another is a little difficult when you take defense into account and their mindset. For instance, Mosley and Margarito. Mosley has never been stopped, his only TKO loss was due to an injury, and Margarito has, but Mosley also doesn't take as many clean shots as Margarito, and has more of a tendency to go into a defensive shell while Margarito looks like a maschoist who enjoys getting punched.

    Maybe Mayweather can stand still with his arms down and Victor Ortiz can crack him.
    Then we'll see if HE can get up. Be fun y'all.
