Is Pacquiao's chin underrated or Clottey has no power?

[koboy]

Lol. Pacquiao is testing his own chin because no else has tested it ever since the JMM 2 fight. I think he likes to find out if he can take shots. He did it against Cotto and now against Clottey.

A little bit of both.

he wasn't testing his chin as much as he wanted clottey to punch so he can open up.

Nah, man. I think he enjoys it. I think he wants to show that he can tek poonches because PBF and Sr. always mention his KO losses.

nah.....

no fighter wants to test his chin intentionally. that's just ******.



he wanted to take a little break or try to lull joshua to punch so he can look for an opening.

Clottey dosen't have great power and he is not an active accumelative puncher to wear guys down. Nonetheless, he is a natural ww and has fought as a JMW so he probably has more power than pac is use to.

Shane Mosley is a better puncher and has speed and a chin; he is the only WW that i think has a chance making a competitive fight with pac. I wont count PBF since that fight will likely never happen

his chin is okay at 147.

he can be hurt and stunned.


i'm more worried about his face than his chin.

manny's skin bruises and swells up very easily under the power of 147 fighters.

clottey barely touched him and he had that knot under his eye. or was that from the headbutt? i fell asleep in the middle of rounds a few times.......

Clottey's physique is impressive but as we all know that really doesn't tell you anything about how hard he hits. He doesn't have that "snap" to his punches mainly because his transition from defence to offence is weak or practically non-existent. He really doesn't have any leverage to his punches. He is no weak puncher by any means and he can cause serious damage but I don't consider him to be in the top of the hardest punchers at welterweight.

Good but immobile defence and average offence. I knew he was going to be a target practice against Pacquiao. That turtle-shell defence doesn't work on a mobile fighter who gives you angles, throws faster and more punches than you.

Pacquiao's chin is good. He's taken some very precise and hard punches and I've only seen him stunned. Pacquiao's KO losses have been caused by shots to the body.
