      He's been rocked in his career round 2 or 3 times.

        and how many times has he been hit flush or fought legit opponents? not many times. my point stands. if he's getting rocked by these b level guys like mosley zab and corley. now we know why he ducked all the more dangerous guys.

          that's a guy who knows which shot is about to be thrown, can see it coming and is braced to roll with it. looks more impressive than it is.

          still, props to El Matador. he did have a pretty awesome chin and some huge balls.

                He's been hit flush plenty.

                Or do you actually believe he's only been hit flush 3 times his entire career?

                Just becase those punches stunned him or rocked him doesn't mean they are the only punches he's taken flush in his career.

                He's taken plenty, against big punchers and been rocked or buzzed around 2 or 3 times.

                Castillo hit him plenty in the first fight and the second fight, Chavez hit him flush, Oscar hit him flush, Ortiz hit him flush, Cotto hit him flush and these are all decent-good punchers.

                  It still takes a monster chin to let Tito tee off on your face. Otherwise you end up like this.

                      note that Nate didn't roll with Peden's punch. just stood there like an idiot and let Peden wind up his best dig. what Mayorga did looked crazy, but he knew what he was doing. still, his punch-resistance in general was something. i was more awed by the big shots upon big shots he took in subsequent rounds vs. Tito. both hands of Trinidad were doing real damage that night.
