Margarito got a better chin, but Paco can take a punch.
Margarito has a chin of steel. I don't think that's the smartest thing to have, but it helps.
Paco on the other hand can take punch, but he can respond to it better. So i wouldn't go too far as to saying he has a tough ass chin like Maragrito.Comment

Oscar landed a couple of left hooks and right hands flush on pacquiao's chin and he took them well.Comment

Margarito has proven time and time again he has probably the best chin in the sport today. He took FLUSH bombs from Cotto for 10 rounds, I mean real hard, real flush bombs in bunches. He took all Williams had to offer and then came back and had Williams all over the place in the championship rounds of that fight. Cintron is a big puncher and twice (especially the rematch) Margarito has taken every single right hand he has thrown. Thing is with Margarito, you hit him and he doesn't get mad, he just gets stronger and tougher and as you tire he comes back with all these strange shots ****ing on your arms, shoulders, neck, stomach, kidney area, head wearing you down. He got buzzed by Santos but Santos was throwing very nice, crisp, powerful shots that night and he came in as a light-heavy unbelievably. It was a temple shot too and Margarito recovered quickly and just kept coming. He also took everything Clottey could throw up to round 4 when Clottey broke his hand or whatever.
To all the people talking about moving up weight divisions etc.... big deal. Pacman has an excellent chin but in general he doesn't take as many shots as Margarito. Plus the fact Oscar and Diaz (His only fights above 130!) didn't even hit him (almost literally) the divisions of 135 and 147 should not even enter the equation for the argument on pacmans chin.
If you really want to see how good the pacman's chin is at 147 put him in with Williams or Cotto (Or even Margarito himself) AHAHA and then see how long he lasts. I'm a boxing fan, who likes a great fight and fighters but Roach would be carrying pacman out on a stretcher if he took shots from those guys!Comment

Pac has a great chin. Margarito just comes so far down in weight.Comment

If Marg moved up to 175 and fought nothin but stiffs he'd do more then survive
Aside from Marquez, Paq hasn't even had to fight anyone that can hit. And thats not even pointin out how he was stunned by a over the hill Larios and stunned by Jorge Solis lol
Talkin about chins right? lol Marg hasnt spent his career fightin bums in the philipines or glorified old guys. For the last what? 4 or 5 years Marg has fought the p4p hardest hitters in his division and is still standing
The **** are you talkin about?Comment

Margarito has the best chin. That guy took some badass shots when he fought Clottey, Cotto and Paul Williams. I'm not saying Pacquiao's chin is bad (I think he has a pretty good chin), I think Tony's chin is just made of steel.Comment
