I genuinely do believe it is a physical freak of nature who can be a superfeatherweight, then 18 months later stand straight in front of a strong welter and shrug off his best punches. It was just mind-blowing to watch.
He was always overrated that i agree,but the punch resistance thing is a bunch of BS,he always had a weak chin and coming straight ahead with his chin up and his hands down only made it worse. but his chin was not worse than when he was getting dropped by Mcgee and hurt by Tackie and this was way before he fought your boy. theres no version of Hatton that would get up from that punch that Pac stopped him.
