The myth of Floyd being iron chinned

Nope he's got a good chin, they do say the best chins don't get hit.

The problem for his opponents is that they never really get to land a decent follow up. He's definitely capable of being sparked though, he doesn't have a Hopkins like chin.

 

Who the hell lets you follow up with more shots on the chin after being hit with a big shot? Pac got hit with flush shots 3 times and went out twice and almost a third time by a jab.

 

Corley caught him with a hard shot and followed it up and couldn't finish a very hurt Floyd.

 

I'm not a Floyd fan but his chin seems iron to me. He's a former SFW, he doesn't get hit much but when he does get hit by big punching, bigger guys, he takes the shots very well.

Round 4

 

I wasn't suggesting anyone lets a fighter do that.

I was saying Floyds defense / recovery are so incredible that opponents are not able to follow up effectively when good shots do land. You have one shot, literally. Most Knock outs are not one punch, well obviously there is always a final shot but its the two shots prior that cause the hurt.

Pac won't stop him, no way, but he can beat him.

 

Corley landed very hard shots on Floyd.

 

I know lol. But you must give credit where credit is due!

Can Pac beat Floyd? I don't think so. If Pac had an inside flat foot game I'd say he has a chance.

 

P.a.c.t.a.rds getting their panties in a twist again I see. Is that because of KTFO - 6?

For those creatures that claim Marquez was on roids, just because he was associated with a guy with links to PED's, does that mean every fighter linked to King, is a killer, just because he shot one guy in the back, and was also convicted of kicking a man to death? ( Later pardoned )

Same stupid logic, isn't it?

 

Good chin

Definitely a good chin

but not iron and is overrated by some

 

You,re a stand-up??

 

There's nothing mythical about Mayweather's chin, it's a solid as they come, we can debate all day about the would have, should have and could have's of his career, but the fact remains, he's never been stopped. The Judah punch that caught him was more of a balance shot, as Mayweather clearly was not even remotely dazed, in fact I would'nt even classify that as a flash knockdown.

As for his amateur career, don't believe he was ever dropped either.
