    Your thoughts on Pacquiao's chin.

    What do you think about Pacquiao's chin? How good or bad is it? I say the Marquez knockout was more of a combination of Marquez landing the perfect counter and Pacquiao's punch resistance deteriorating with age. I mean, he'll be 35 soon, which means he's getting up there.

    I think it was a combination of Marquez punch and Pacquaios momentum moving forward which caused the KO.

    I think in normal circumstances Marquez won't KO Pacquaio and vice versa.

      Other than that fight, when was the last time we saw him rocked like that?

        I say Pacquiao's punch resistance has deteriorated because he had already been floored prior to the knockout.

          I've never seen PAC rocked before that saw I would say its still good. JMM just caught him perfectly n was probably juiced up too.

            His chin is fine. He took Marquez' best shots in 3 and a half fights. He got caught by a shot that would put 2/3's of the WWs out.

              Oh, and before anyone says it was a lucky punch, look at :35-:38 of this video:

                Pac got knocked out by a guy who gained one punch KO power at the age of 39, read into that what you will.

                Pac has an ATG chin, I haven't seen him wobbled when he's been hit by guys like Marg, Cotto, Hatton, Morales, Barrera, all those guys are hard hitters. I still think Pac takes the majority of punches from every guy from 135-147...except Hulk Marquez.

                  If PAC had a slightly weaker chin, we wouldn't even be talking about him being an ATG.

                  The difference between ATGs, and great fighters is their chins. He had the durability to go on to beat all those great fighters.
