Why is Floyd's chin so underrated?

[V.WEBB]

i actually thnk its overrated......then again,floyd is overall overrated....

So why are the MAJORITY of your posts talking about an overrated fighter? And hy do you want Manny to fight him?

I would naturally assume that a fighter with 40 professional fights and against some of the best in the world who hasn't been knocked out or seriously hurt has a good chin.

Or the worlds best defence? Which he has....

Mayweather has shown a good chin in the past, but we've never seen him take a BIG shot from a huge hitter because he never has to...

He took a HUGE shot from Oscar in the 12th round. He didnt even feel it. He has one of the best chins in boxing.

Floyd must have a a good chin. Look at his resume, you can't go 12 rounds and beat those guys if you have a glassy chin

I still don't understand why some people think that was a boring fight. I thought it was one of Floyd's more enjoyable fights.

The Zab Judah knockdown was more so his feet getting caught up after the punch while he was returning from potshotting. Technically that's a slip up, but at the same time there was contact before he touched down so you can call it a knockdown. However there aren't too many fighters with speed like Zab's so you won't see that often. He's arguably faster than Pac...for the first 4 or 5 rounds hahaha

However, Mayweather was not wobbled or hurt by that punch at all. It actually shows how strong his chin is. Just imagine what would happen is Judah landed that punch on Amir "Gone in 60 seconds" Khan.

Because he barely ever gets hit and when he does get hit, he's usually riding with or seeing the punch coming.

If he had Margarito's chin, we wouldn't know because he doesn't get hit nearly as much or as hard.

because i like to comment about the overrated fighter....in this case, floyd's the most overrated....

[BoxingSavant]

From time to time I read posts that say that Floyd will get sparked and KO'd etc. We have seen Floyd for more than a decade and he has only been really hurt once and has never tasted the canvas. So where do people get this nonsense from? People act like he doesn't fight toe to toe but forget that late in fights he fights in the pocket.

He can take a good shot, look at the 8th round against Corrales, look at that big left by Zab, he took left hooks from Oscar.

So enlighten me, where is the evidence that Floyd can really get iced easily?

Floyd has a solid chin. You are correct in that the myth surrouding Floyd's chin is unwarranted. It is similar to the myth of Antwon Echols!

Your friend, parache.
