will he share the same fate as roy jones?
The guy has only really been hit by Mosely and he got pretty weak knee'd from it. But he weathered it pretty good. I would say middle of the road chin...
Two things amazed me about that second round... First how well Mayweather was able to clinch and wrap up mosely. Second that Mosely just gave up after that... Should have been throwing that right hand all night long..
Not true. He has been hit plenty of times.

Floyd has been hit flush by many more than Shane Mosley.
Floyd took quite a few from Emanuel Augustus, Castillo, and Chop Chop.
His chin is outstanding.

nothing surprises me about how well mayweather can handle himself in the ring or how badly he can handle himself outside it.

Hes never been dropped offiicialy so you got to give it to him after 41 fights without being droppd,every fighter gets hurt at some point but the suck it up.
Hard to tell really. Yes hes been caught a few times, but they are the punches the average person usually takes countless times, before the effects are felt.
IM not so sure his chin is solid. WHen he was caught by corley or whoever he looked vulnerable little boy. Im not even sure how solidly landed the punches were. The one landed by SSM wasnt all that because SSM rarely stops people in the first or second round. So many people have taken those punches by SSM.
he's got a good chin and a defence based around solid technique rather than one based around pure speed and reactions like roy, so he'd probably need to be beaten down before he gets KO'd rather than a one punch tarver v jones deal. That shot mosley landed on him was a monster but he took it - a glass jaw would certainly have shattered.
Solid chin. He won't suffer the same fate as Roy. Roy's defense was based purely on reflexes and athleticism. Floyd's is more technical with his defense (i.e. chin tucked, rolling with punches, body placement, etc.)
He has a good chin.
He has been hit many times flush not just the misconception 'he's only been hit flush 3 times in his entire career'
He has been hit flush plently of times and has never offically been knocked down.
He's proven he has atleast a good chin.
