Mayweather or Pacquiao - whos got the better chin ?

It's difficult to say, as there isn't a lot of evidence to base an analysis of Mayweather's chin on. He very rarely gets hit clean. Mosley, a good puncher, hurt him with a clean shot, although Mayweather wasn't too badly hurt and his head was clear for the next round. Ortiz landed a couple of decent shots, but nothing that seriously troubled him.
Pacquiao's chin has always been decent and it seems to have gotten even better since moving up in weight. He's been hit fairly regularly by guys like Cotto, Margarito and Clottey - not murderous punchers, but he's stood up well to all those shots. There's a slight question mark over his susceptibility to body shots however, having been momentarily hurt at one stage against Margarito and badly hurt by a body shot in his last fight against Marquez, which took him an entire round to recover from.
All in all, Pacquiao's chin may be a bit more sturdy, based on the recent shots he's been able to withstand. Again, it's hard to say with any certainty.Comment

Floyd's chin got wobbled by nobody's or by fighters like DLH and Mosley who were past their prime if he had fought Mosley when he was 29-30 Floyd would have gotten his a** knocked out in the 2nd round. And when Floyd grows a pair and decides to fight Pacquiao Floyd wouldn't know what to do when he sees punches hit him floyd hasn't fought anyone with Pacquiao's speed.Comment
