Better P4P Chin, Tyson or Pacman?

[soul_survivor]

Two great fighters. How do you rate their chins?

p4p, Pacquiao but it's probably because Pacquiao had more heart and grit. Tyson hated men who fought back.

[Bipolar Hero]

P4p gotta be Pac. The dude moved up so many divisions and only got stopped a few times.

[Zaroku]

Tyson. Doesn't matter how good the chin is in the hw division...anyone can go down. I've seen Tyson take some Canelo-Khan punches with full neck twist and all and stay in there.


Not just that but Tyson wasn't getting KOd like Pac was early on in their career.

No contest

Excellent points.

The big men jab harder than a PAC power punch.

Chin resistence doesn't increase in a linear way.

I don't think your second point holds much weight on account of Pacquiao's age in those fights. There are examples of young boxers starting out 'chinny' and later developing strong beards.

To make a pick, since Pacquiao did go out cold in atleast one fight in his prime I would have to go with Tyson. I think he's one of those guys who could be stopped but never really go unconcious.

When??
Are you talkin Marquez 4?? I wouldn't say that was prime Manny.....

Tyson REALLY could take a punch, but I would say p4p Manny had the better chin. I mean who did Tyson fight? I mean other than a fading Holyfield??
Now compare that to Mannys opposition. And lets not forget how far up in weight Manny went to fight these guys...

Both were tough b*stards in their day, but I think Manny was tougher...

[Bravado]

Anybody saying manny is an idiot.

Do you really see anybody knock Tyson out so cold with one single punch that they would have to revive him with smelling salts? I sure as hell don't.

Yes actually.

If a Foreman or Liston type puncher hit Tyson I think He would be out for a week....

Lewis already did with some of his best uppercuts and right cross and nope, Tyson was never close to sleeping. That 20 inch neck on a wide 5'10 frame and giant thick skull has an edge.

Anybody saying manny is an idiot.

why?

manny started out just over 100 lbs, and finished his career fighting big, strong welterweights. best fighter in the world from 112 -147. that has never been done.

manny had a great chin. so did tyson. people aren't "idiots" for picking one great chin from the weight classes over a great chin at HW.

You think Lewis punches like George Foreman?

So you think Tyson gettin beat up by Lewis is impressive but you talk bout
Manny like he's some ordinary fighter....

I'm more impressed by the light flyweight who has took punches
from Chatchai Sasakul, Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, De La Hoya,
Cotto, Margarito, Mosley, Rios, Mayweather etc.

Juan Manuel Marquez needed 42 rounds, Manny on the slide and steroids (memo) to ko Manny

Imagine If Earnie Shavers, Liston or Foreman were roided out of their minds
with that good **** from memo....
They would do canelo/kahn to tyson....
