1. Morales' punch clearly threw him for a loop. He missed three straight punches and he missed them big. You never see Pacquiao miss like that.
2. Marquez does have underrated power - and he clearly hurt Pacquiao. He hit him with a couple of freight trains that I'm surprised he was able to withstand...barely. Still, this leads me to my next point
3. Pacquiao has a very good chin, but I wouldn't say it's underrated. Maybe by Floyd-stans but who cares? He can take bombs, but he can be hurt too. I wouldn't say he's quite "granite-chinned" in the same vein of Tony Margarito or Jake LaMotta.
I somewhat agree that Marg and Lamotta shown steadier chins on some spots. Compared to Pac.
I disagree however that Juan hurt Pac. The only time Pac was hurt was when a cut was opened in the 9th?? round that visibly bothered pac. Pac got wobled a few times but immediately settled down and continue moving forward.

I agree. Pac has a great chin but is vulnerable. I still get worried that he would get caught with that one shot when he fights.
