When Pacman Got Hit with that Left right on the chin...

ya man you know your history lolI think Pacquiao's punch resistance has gotten better as he's moved up in weight as he's less weakened by making weight and probably has stronger legs.
Similar thing with DLH having chin questions early in his career due to the Campanella and Valenzuela fights, and showing a very good chin as he's moved up.
Pacquiao was dropped and badly hurt by a jab from Nedal Hussein, but stood up to some good shots from Morales, Barrera, and Marquez. Holyfield was dropped and hurt by guys like Cooper and Ruiz but never dropped by the uppercuts (or straight rights) of Lewis, or Tyson as well.
Boxing's weird like that sometimes. Doesn't always make the most sense.
When pacman was dropped at his first fight at 126 by that russian guy from a left hook he shook it off he was a bit wobbly but he recovered pretty fast and finished the guy in the next round.
I was wondering the same thing with the morales wars, morales was hitting him hard with straights the same straight morales dropped the bigger david diaz down with he couldnt drop pacman with. In the 3rd fight morales kept coming back one point he threw 3 straight punches down the middle all hitting pacman clean on the face but pacman just kept coming.Comment

true but Pacman got hit for worse his head snapped side ways and jmm threw more power behind it.
It seems pacman didnt even really throw any force in that punch but jmm just dropped, is pacmans hands that heavy or is it the chin of jmm?Comment

i think it was just the conditions of that punch. you're more vulnerable to a KO when you arent expecting it. Pac landed ALOT more heavier, power shots than that during the fight.Comment

Pacquiao's chin is one of the most underrated in boxing. He took the best shots of the best fighters in his divisions whom prepared one or two months more than him.
Pacquiao's more aggresive when he's tagged so i guess it negates the supposed momentum of his opponent.Comment

Pac could just take a punch really well...He got tagged by Marquez a lot of times but Juanita couldn't just put him down but it only takes one left to floor Dinamita...Comment
