Mayorga used to be a walking punch bag, no idea how he beat Vernon...anyway, Pacquiao rips him apart, batters him, out works him, out skills him and makes him bleed. Mayorga was a tough SOB so he might even last 12 but he'd have years taken off his life.Comment

I disagree on Mayorga's chin being shot post-Tito. I saw that fight differently.Nobody ever came close to hurting Mayorga until Trinidad ruined him with hundreds of bombs and cracked his chin. Before he fought Trinidad Mayorga laughed off everybody's hardest punches. After he fought Trinidad his punch resistance went way down although he still had a good chin. Mayorga's prime is before he fought Trinidad. Pacquiao would beat the hell out of that Mayorga but it's unlikely he would even knock him down.
Tito beat the hell out of his chin, but Mayorga ate every punch without issue--hell, he even stuck his chin out for three flush shots, and then mocked him afterwards!
It wasn't until his trainer, the announcers, & practically everyone in the audience yelled at Tito enough to go to the body, that he finally figured out how soft Mayorga is in the body. It was a body shot that put him down as I recall.
Point being, IMO Mayorga walked away retaining his ATG chin.
Pac is not a body puncher, so I do think body work would be Roach's game plan, but I think it would turn into a war a la Pac-Morales
If anyone cracked his chin for good, it was DLHLast edited by nveleven; 07-27-2015, 03:19 PM.Comment

He nearly KO'd Mayorga in the last 5 seconds of the 1st. Body shots helped set up the KO in the later rounds, but I think Tito had the power if he landed enough fully loaded power shots on Mayorga's head, he would of KO'd him via a headshot as well.I disagree on Mayorga's chin being shot post-Tito.

2 pounds won't have a detrimental effect on his undeniable quality.
