    did he even get hit with any power shots? Looks like DLH only landed 89 total punches or so. That is only 12 a round.

    It's hard to tell.. Pacquiao did take a few shots to the face and at one point, took a small flurry of shots to the body when on the ropes, but raised his arms up as if they didn't phase him.. Pacquiao looked untouched after the fight though, so it's kind of hard to tell.. DLH didn't seem to take Pac's shots well at all though..

    dlh didnt hit him anything serious so all you have to go by is his past fights and so far in his career, he shown to have a pretty good chin. the two ko losses wer due to body shots.

    You cant really tell, it never got tested.


    I think that after about the 3rd round, Oscar's corner should have told him to go all out and make it a brawl. He was getting outboxed badly, that would have been his only chance to take a risk and trade some shots and test Pac's chin.

    He really didn't take any clean shots to determine his how solid his chin is. I remember thinking Oscar hit him flush in the early rounds one time and that MAYBE Pac looked a little unsteady, but I will need to rewatch it to be sure. Either way, if you can't hit him, the chin isn't gonna be an issue.

    I definitely was waiting for the left hook and the jab to keep manny at bay. Didn't happen.

    how about ODLH's chin? To say he didn't get knocked down either by Manny's punch adds to his good resume

    The body got tested a bit, but Pac is noticably thicker now.. He got hit with a couple of lefts in the third but its far and few in between that one cant tell

    Can't really rate it based on this fight since Oscar fought Willie Pep style

    can't say coz oscar never hit a solid powershot from what i saw. pac was too fast and was on his toes throughout the fight.
