      Unless I am forgetting something here, Floyd has never been down. THAT is the difference between him and Jones. Jones was down once prior to getting knocked out, despite his speed. In my oppinion Jones never ahd that great of a chin, but he had the speed to get out of the way of shots or make them glance off of his body or head. PBF has goten hit a couple times though. Also, he has more defense than Jones ever did. After all, who has ever seen him just stick up that right arm after he threw a shot. Certainly not me, and that was Jones' favorite defensive technique. No, I dont think it will be Floyd's chin that will make him lose if he does. Instead, I think that if Floyd loses it will because he was worn down by a more POWERFUL fighter who bullies him around the ring and maybe punishes him to the body to decrease some of that movement.

        ppl always seem to underestimate tszyu, and overestimate mayweather. Dont get me wrong mayweather is good, but he hasnt done enough to be held in as high regard as alot of ppl hold him. it annoys me how tszyu was ruling the 140lb division and as soon as mayweather enters it, ppl put him at the top of the list above tszyu. tszyu has power that cant be denied but he is also very effective at catching ppl with it. he has already taken out judah and mitchell who both hav similar styles to mayweather (particularly judah, who has more power but less effective defense). mayweathers defense also wasnt all that great against corley. Although it is hard to compare i think ppl should give tszyu more credit and keep him at the top of the list until mayweather proves himself better by beating him. Another thing that makes me question floyd is that he doesn't seem to want to fight tszyu, he wants gatti then hes talking about DLH & mosley. neither of them hav titles, and he wouldnt gain all that much respect for beating them as they both seem to have been on the downward slope lately. if ur gonna move up to 147, fight judah and then defend against these other fighters once ur the champion. anyway, i hope he fights tszyu someday soon so that the speculation can end - it could go either way but i think tszyu would catch him and knock him out at some stage.

          To be honest I could see the fight playing out alot like Mayweather's fight with Diego Corrales. The puncher trying to land the bomb but never does as Floyd continues to pile up points.
