          They don't have professional sports in China, and the Chinese seem to go in for Chinese boxing, kung fu. There has been more interest in western boxing there, and in fact some big fights were held in China. I had a Chinese (western) boxing site saved under my Favorites, but it seems to be closed now.

PAC has not touched the canvas since he got low blowed by Agapito Sanchez at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, before then it was back in the early 90's, actually its been over a decade since he tasted the canvas from a chin shot! The fighters that he's fighting of late are actually alot better punchers than the ones he has faced in the past and none of 'em came close to kd, ko'd, or tko'd!!

              pacs only other KO came from a body shot after being weight drained...and most of his knock downs have been from flashes.

                  cuz he got ko'd. early or not, he got ko'd. if you'd rate his chin above a 7 I'd say you don't know a goddamn thing about boxing.

                    mayorga has an amazing chin he got knockdown hard by oscar.

                    i think it has more to do with the shot you get caught with even guys with good chins if they get hit on the sweetspot with the right timed punch they could go down too...especially when they dont see the punch coming.

                      I actually did a presentation on the Beijing Olympics and did some research on boxing in China. They have one superstar-type guy, forget his name though. They have some womans boxing academies too.
