    Well, at 147 his chin has been great. Yes, I said great. Zab Judah is a very powerful guy whose power is underrated because of his small frame.

    At 140 he was wobbled more than a few times.

    Arguably, he has never been knocked down, because as far as I know the only time he has been down was at the Torres fight, and he was pushed.

      you are right. the only so called knockdown was bull**** cause torres pushed him down. in the past to be labeled weak chin means you were put on ur ass.what happened?

          People think because you get hurt you don't have a good chin. This is not true to me being able to recover if if you go down, is a true sign of your toughness/chin. Cotto took some good shots against Mosley and was okay. Judah stunned him a bit but he recovered. It's about recovery in my opinion.

            uh I would call the Torres find pretty serious. he was definitely staggering around and down

              Agree.

              He also has to be cautious about Mayorga and DLH if they come back to 147, although DLH wasn't as powerful as before against poor Stevie Forbes.

                Not sure how anybody can say he has a GOOD chin as many times as he's been hurt or wobbled. Who are you comparing him to to say he has a GOOD chin?

                  He hasn't been seriously hurt at 147 yet, Judah and Mosley stunned him though.

                  He has been badly hurt at 140 against Torres and Corley, especially against Corley.

                    every other fighter on the planet. look i remember watching the corley fight and thinking damn cotto looks hurt, and he was, but his GREAT recovery had him back in the fight in no time and i think needs to be factored in to his chin strength. by the same token glen johnson knocked out roy jones with that same, top of the head rabbit punch and cotto did not even go down. ricardo torres caught him flush so many times i just knew cotto was going to go down but instead he was pushed down, got up and thoroughly dusted torres off. if u ask me taking those punches and not going down gives him an osama bin laden beard for real. not to mention that zab or mosley did not wobble him. zab hit him with an uppercut that would knockout most of the top 10 welterweights and he took it pretty good. its unfortunate that his body work strayed low but i feel his was recovered completely by that time.

                      Cotto got caught w/ a Malignaggi right hand that wobbled jim....Paulie only has 5 K.O's only thing Cotto needs is a strong finisher. Corrlaes would've Knocked him out.He's very low blow lucky Zab didn't konck him out in the 1sdt round.
