        It's still fine now, Rios didn't look to really bother him.
        Idk if its fine or not but he definitely looked self conscious about it during that fight.

          Pac's chin is Holyfield tier, but not Hagler tier.

            In terms of Toughness in terms of not giving up, he is a 10, he has the heart of a lion no quit in the man, you have to literally knock him out cold to stop him because if you hurt him or drop him once he will make you pay ten fold.

            He is really one of the most ferocious fighters of all time, but his chin is made in china.

            He has a ceramic jaw, he has Tommy Hearns intangibles both are very offensive and exciting with no quit in them, but they don't have solid chins, only difference is hearns chin is iron compared to pacmans.

              I agree with the first half of this post but it seems like you popped a couple of pills while downing a bottle of Wodka before writing the second half.

                Huh?

                "Pac's chin is Holyfield tier, but not Hagler tier."

                Huh? LoL. Holyfield's chin was as good as Hagler's man. What are you talking about??? Those are two of my favorite fighters ever. They both had two of the greatest beards ever. One isn't better than the other because they both were excellent.

                  He's an ATG.....

                  Manny Pacquiao is an ATG for a reason. He was a HOF'mer before going on that historic run that has him now an 8 division world champion. He's done something that the sport has never seen before. How can you even question his toughness or chin? I don't think that is possible at all. Marquez cheated. PERIOD. To me, this man still hasn't clearly lost in almost 10 years and 15een or 16een fights. I think he's one of the best fighters I've seen in my lifetime. I think he beats a lot of the HOF'mers who came before him. He is a very unique fighter with unique gifts. He'd beat Pryor, Chavez Sr., and possibly Duran. I have Duran vs Pacquiao at 140, a 50/50 fight. I think if Manny boxes him like he can, with his legs, stamina, speed, angle-punching, and under-rated intelligence, he could win a decision. And trust me, I KNOW the animal that is Duran but he's never seen a fighter who match him in sheer violence and stamina like Manny. Anyway, I rank Manny as the best fighter of this era, and it's not even close between him and Floyd because of the risk factor and who they've fought. Cotto is ahead of Floyd as well. It's Floyd's own fault he doesn't have balls. He can't blame his mother, father, or fans.

                    Its crazy when eberyone saing how granite his chin is. they forget he ATE that huge right hand by marquez in round 5 of that fight.
                    its just that he couldnt see it coming, ran forward with his punch and trip to get FLATTENED but his chin is still good

                      Hagler had a better chin than evander,, both had great ones but hagler was never dropped or even wobbled, Holyfield got dropped by Bert cooper and bowe in his prime
