    How many bombs did prime Mosley land on Margarito before he even wobbled A BIT?
    Now how many did past-prime Mosley land on Floyd to make him wobble.

    If you can't understand that VERY SIMPLE analogy, then no use talking really.

    I agree with the number of bombs but how did shane become past prime in his very next fight if he wasn't before

    OK let me change that.
    A "slipping" Shane did that to him.

    Proof is his performance immediate after the fight against FMJ.

    Although that should be irrelevant because a person's strength is conserved up until 40yrs old.
    So more or less the same punch per punch impact for Shane vs Margarito and Floyd.

    And c'mon! Level with me here.
    If it weren't for Margarito's freakishly granite chin, he wouldn't have had a strong boxing career.

    Floyd's strength lies on how he quickly recuperates physically and stays mentally sharp even when something solid just landed on his face.
    That, on top of his superb defense, is the reason he's never KO'd and rarely KD'd.
    His chin has shown time and again to not be ATG.

    Shane became past-prime immediately following one of the best performances of his career? It never ends. YDKSAB.

    Lets compare clips of Mosley flattening each fighter and we'll compare the punches. Oh wait.

    Some might say there is another reason Rockgloves was able to exist against some of the top boxers. I'll give you a clue... he was suspended for it.

    Manny, easily.
    Floyd only ships punches when he's moving back so alot of the impact is taken away, like Naz used to. I reckon if he took the punishment manny does he'd be far from undefeated. Not taking anything away from floyd, his defence is amazing.

    So if I change that to this:


    How many bombs did prime Mosley land on Margarito before he even wobbled A BIT?
    Now how many did prime Mosley land on Floyd to make him wobble?

    It will hold less water and Floyd suddenly has a better chin than Margarito?

    Please. You're making this too easy.

    Sure thing.... In either event, Rockgloves was knocked flat out and Floyd never touched the canvas. Sadly, you have no case.

    You have absolutely no idea how stupid you're sounding right now. :rofl :rofl :rofl
    So you're saying that since Ali have had KD's during his career, Floyd's chin is better?

    Sit down kid. You're making a complete fool of yourself.

    Wait a sec, LaMotta and Marciano both have been KD'd (and KO'd) in their careers.
    Oh and Hagler too!

    That must mean FMJ's chin is better than theirs!

    So in a couple of months shane went from prime to shot?

    This is what I'm talking about when I say anytime you put floyd in the mix. Let me guess, shane was in his prime again for the pac fight.

    I think both have pretty good chins although Floyds has not been tested anywhere near as much as Mannys.
