Better Chin... "Dream Match" Oscar or a 145lbs Cotto?

[El Chicano]

According to my previous poll, it's pretty much been decided that throughout his career, Oscar's chin has been better than both Ricky's and Cotto's.

Now I ask you this...

Was Oscar's chin, on Dec 6th, 2008 better than Miguel Cotto's chin right now?

Explain...

Good thing about Cotto is, he's smart enough that he doesn't give his opponent a chance to test his chin and instead will take the easy way out by taking a knee.

We haven't seen Cotto @ 145 yet!

Pac ain't a WW. He finished DLH thru accumulation, not actual punchin power. DLH never went down, tho he was close in 7 and 8.

Cotto is in the same position. Pac can conceivably hurt him wit 1 punch, but I doubt it. He'd have to land a lot. I think DLH had the better chin between the 2 in these compared fights.

We don't have to see Cotto @ 145 to know that Oscar has a better chin. Oscar on that night he fought Pacquiao took some bombs to the face, and he was dehydrated, so even that Oscar is at worst equal to Cotto @ 147.

Its not possible to say just yet, but the one thing that Oscar kept in his zombified state was the chin.

Manny started catching Oscar with very good shots in the very first round. One of those shots even had Oscar shaken up for a second. Manny's power visibly sapped Oscar. The only reason Oscar didn't go down is because he has a world class chin. If he starts to catch Cotto with the same shots he caught Oscar and Ricky with, early in the fight, I think he hurts Cotto.

cottos chin has been cracked alredy.. nd tested. oscar went up to 160.. but oscars chin is by far better.

We can't really say for sure yet TS, but even if Cotto wins if he hits the canvas at all as a result of a head shot then I have to say "dream match DLH" would have had a better chin.
