    Well he was hit pretty cleanly by Hatton and DeLaHoya but you're right, he hasn't been hit by any TRUE sluggers to really rate his chin.

    He tripped over Ricky's foot.

    He wasn't wobbled what so ever by Hatton. This is the only time I've seen him hurt...

    Though you can debate Judah also hurt him with a straight left in round four of their fight.

    Judah knocked him down. Floyd wasn't hurt at all.
    Corley hurt him.
    Ricky Hatton?
    I'd rate his chin a solid 8 or maybe 8.5?

    PBF has a proven Chin. I'd say 7.5 or so. and my scale is very strict a 10 would be LaMotta or Chuvalo. A 7.5 is very good.

    :lol::lol:

    But seriously, hurt once against Corley and maybe sort of against Judah? Not that he's really fought a ton of fighters known for their power (especially not at welterweight) but I'd have to say his chin is anywhere between and 8.5 and 9.

    i never said he was hurt against hatton! i said he was wobbled by a SLAP,it wasn't even a clean punch and you're right about the balance thing but he didn't trip over hatton's foot.He was off balance and got hit by a SLAP but if he were to go down it would've been ruled a knockdown,not a slip.this is a 2008 arguement lol

    I dont agree, against Corley he just looked shocked and sat on the ropes with his hands up...he was gone, a better finisher stops him right there.

    I think it goes to his ability not to get hit cleanly. His chin is a 10 until someone dents it.

    Considering he's never really been hurt you have to rate his chin a 9, and his defense a 20....
