What do you guys think about Pacquiao's chin now?

Wasn't really chin checked, but I still think it's good.

Its the new and improved Manny. Freddy had him pulling minivans with his jaw during training camp. The new found muscles have stabilized his cranium making him the new Margarito of the division.

The punch from Marquez was absolutely perfect. You don't see that very often. Pacquiao took some clean shots from Rios, who can hit pretty hard, and he wasn't in any trouble at all. I think his chin is just fine. I've been saying this all along. I think people have been looking way too much into that Marquez KO. He got caught, and that's that. I was never convinced that he was shot.

Pacquiao was previously stopped by body shots buddy. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android 1 was body punches. when he lost his flyweight belt he failed to make weight. singsurat IIRC. the other one was a bomb to the chin ppl think was a body shot but wasn't. it just looked like it on the youtube clip most ppl seen. torrecampo. he also almost got ktfo at 122 before his fame. he was out of it and barely survived. hussein. those 2 times when he got chin checked he didn't see the punch coming like the jmm ko. this was wild pre-roach pac. pac has a good chin. but like most fighters if you catch a bomb you don't see coming, you'll get dropped.

i don't understand why supposedly knowledgable boxing fans don't understand punching power. you don't get weaker moving up in weight. the opponents chins are stronger at higher weights. rios hits harder at 147 than 135. when ppl say their power didn't carry to the higher weight division, it means the gain in power they made putting on weight didn't match the better punch resistance of their opponents at the higher weights. bigger/heavier you are adds strength. strength plays a part in punching power and punch resistance.

pacquiao had a great chin in his prime. he's clearly past his prime, but he still has a fine chin. marquez hit him with shots he didn't see. the first looping right hand was something that manny backed into, and blinded himself with his own guard. the knockout shot in the sixth was something manny all but ran into. it also can't be ignored that marquez is very likely using PEDs. one of manny's biggest issues is that he's not actually a welterweight. when a big guy hits him in the body it physically moves him. it's hard to defend against that if the guy throws more than once, because you're not set and you lose some balance. that won't be a huge issue against mayweather. pacquiao's arm length would be his biggest issue. mayweather is going to be able to take advantage of pacquaio's arm length and beat him to the punch on the outside. in his prime manny would be able to turn the heat up, and make it a afun fight. today he doesn't have the legs to do that for 12 rounds. he can hardly do it for three whole minutes. mayweather UD. 3 million ppv buys, still.

I'll say this, Pacquiao didn't seem comfortable taking punches. He didn't seem like the same Pacquiao who fought Margarito. You know, the maniac asking to get punched. Now Idk if it was cause he was self conscious and paranoid or if he knows something we dunno about his chin. Either way, I don't have a problem with it. Just an observation I made.

The guy had been knocked out a couple of times so clearly his chin is crackable. Don't know what's so hard to understand about that. It's seemed to get better with age though, but still not iron clad. I think however that he is very physically durable and not likely to get worn down unless he's completely outclassed. It takes a murder punch to finish him off. Pacquiao was previously stopped by body shots buddy. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

his chin was cracked by a PED punch, but I think his chin is still decent with real punches. You sound like a real idiot with that ****, I guess you need to lie to yourself to accept it though so carry on you weak minded ****.

SO now you can appreciate boxing and winning boring. Did Pac pot shotting to his victory?

This version of Pacquiao will be more difficult to beat as he will not allow himself anymore to give his opponent a free shot. He will beat his opponent by his speed and movement alone. SO now you can appreciate boxing and winning boring.

pacquiao admitted in an interview rios hurt him with one left hook shot. before, whenever pacquiao got hit, he would clap his gloves together and then dish out his patented 6-8 punch combinations. but in the rios fight, pacquiao just showed more movement and considerably less punches. the chin is still there

it's clearly not glass, anyway

Seemed solid. Don't think he's as willing to walk through fire as he was back when he fought Cotto for example, but there was no evidence that it was cracked either. Rios is pretty heavy handed so it was a good test.

According to HBO Punch stat, Paquiao been hit on the chin three times. For me to answer a question clearly, one must be hit clearly on the hit to see if he is able to take it.

Pac was fine. Rios hit him with good enough shots that if Pac's chin was cracked, he would have gone down.

WOW! with these people, dayum, what do you really want, for PACQUIAO to offer his chin so Rios can test it with helluva shot? Of course hell not let it happened, he wouldnt want to commit the same mistake again. Manny knows Manny learns you know. He said he committed a mistake so he was avoiding it, it shows Mannys smart contrary to some idiots was saying. ...and... tell me is Manny one dimensional? points for points, with mannys combo and body attacks displayed recently i reaaly believe hes a chance against floyd.

Rios made Alvarado dance with jab at 140 Hes way stronger now and hit Pac a couple of times and Pac was fine Pac's chin is A but use to be A+
