    Why would early in a fight matter?

    Do all one shot knockouts suddenly become void after a certain round?

    Mosley hits hard. Are you actually going to argue with me over how HARD Mosley hits?

    Who said he didn't have a good chin? :think

    Only been stunned a handful of times. Several times he was off balance and looked to stagger, without actually being hurt. Well above average chin.

    i dont think its as black and white as having a good chin, or not.

    as the old adage goes- "the one that hurts you, is the one you dont see" - and to floyds great advantage- he sees them all. so although he has a good chin- that is bolstered by the fact that he is always braced for a punch, and prepared- with good balance, composure, strong neck that he develops hard,

    all combine to the fact - that the man can take a punch. he hasnt been officially knocked down for ****s sake, whether he has a good chin or not is almost moot by that in itself. he dosent get hit hard often, and when he has, he has held it. so to argue otherwise, i mean you r shooting with blanks, im afraid.

    Floyd has a good, not great chin.

    But there are other things involved. Floyd usually sees em coming and has started to roll or back up.
    Mosley's 2 punches seemed to have caught him unawares.

    All this is part of why some here pick Pac to win, if it's a fair fight.

    Pac can take FLoyd's best shot. I don't hink FLoyd can take Pac's. ANd if FLoyd is stunned, Pac--unlike old Mosley--will finish him off.

    you guys should watch moneyball. the film concerns itself with outdated means of measuring players. the main character sits in an office with people talking about how athletic a guys is, how fast he can throw- instead of what percentage he throws, how well he hits- instead of how many times he gets on base.

    for ****s sake

    alot of the talk here reminds me of that ****. does he have a good chin? whats his fist size? whats his reach? whats his bodyfat?

    these questions mean **** all in the real world of boxing . the question is, does he get hit? does he go down?

    the answers are,

    hardly at all.
    and
    not yet on record by a punch.

    whether he has a good chin or nut is like asking if a nun has a tight twat. it means **** all if no-ones ****in it. ya dig?

    One other thing, I don't think Pacquaio has that great of a chin either. I would say above average or slightly above?

    Don;t agree with that. Cotto, CLottey landed their bast shots on PAc. Swelled him up good, but no knee buckling or anything.
     
  11. wow i can't believe he thinks Shane is not a puncher

    According to how his legs bent the only time that Mosley connected
    with 2 clean punches, I do not think he has a great chin, since Mosley`s punches
    connected a lot more in Cotto and DLH and they were not hurt like that. I do not think that
    Floyd would absolve a clean punch from Martinez.
