    The Oscar fight is a terrible benchmark for Pacquiao's chin. Oscar was smaller than him, and hasn't shown impressive power in quite a while.

    On the other hand, the insane talent that Pacquiao has faced throughout his career, and having rarely been hurt puts his chin on the top level of the sport.

    People like Margarito and Andrade are the only fighters who have a better chin than him IMO.

    He is on the same level as Paul Williams... they take big shots, and just don't seem to get phased by it at all.

      Manny has a great chin above 106lbs.

        Better yet, Hatton is going to reveal just how durable Pacquiao's ribcage is as well.

        Hatton is being grossly underrated going into this fight.

              In Oscar's last two fights at 154, he looked good, he was competitive against Floyd Mayweather, and he looked spectacular KO'ing Mayorga.

              Consider this: Oscar De La Hoya weighed 20 pounds more in his fight against Floyd Mayweather and Ricardo Mayorga than he did against Manny Pacquiao.

              Also consider this: The last time that Oscar weighed 145'ish on fight night, while in the ring was 13 years ago, in 1996 when he fought Julio Cesar Chavez at Super Lightweight. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of his fights at Lightweight.[/I]

              I'm not insinuating that Manny does not have a good chin, but to infer through his fight with Oscar that he would be able to cope with Welter Weight power would be a bit optimistic to say the least.

                  How do you see the outcome of the Pac-Hatton fight? You were one of the few here who predicted Manny to stop Oscar.

                    Pac's power is underrated. When you have a feather fisted Forbes hitting you, Oscar will come at you and throws combinations. It's very tiring especially all you hit is air and your opponent is just moving from all angles.

                    If it was Floyd then it could have been competetive and it will go to distance. Floyd will stay on the ropes. Pac didn't let him go on the offensive.
