    Fruggin' 'ell! All this 'chin' business is starting to piss me off. Someone that gets stunned and then puts a whopping beat down on his opponents does not necessarily have a 'shaky' or weak chin. Who has he been rocked against?
    Let's look at them.

    Corley: He's the only fighter to have actually hurt Mayweather. That in itself has to count for something. He hit Cotto with a perfect hard counter shot that would have knocked most fighters at that weight clean out. Cotto was staggered, but he recovered very quickly and then knocked Corley out.

    Torres: He was or is considered the biggest one punch KO artist at 140 and had knocked out nearly every one of his opponents. He also hurt Cotto. Gee, what a surprise. That's like saying "Cotto was hurt when he got hit flush by Tommy Hearns". Amazing! Anyway, he also came back without too much trouble and knocked Torres out.

    Judah: Judah staggered him a little bit, not very bad mind you, in the early rounds when he is one of the best fighters, if not the best fighter P4P today. Cotto again recovered very well, with the help of some excellent recovery tactics. He also put a rather vicious beating on Judah after that and knocked him out. Wow.

    See, the thing is this; If someone has the reputation of a 'shaky' chin it is because with a good chin they would not lose fights they should easily win. Take the aforementioned Hearns for example. He had a 'shaky' chin because throughout his career if he was hit cleanly he would lose, generally by KO. It doesn't matter how good the opponent was, if he took one right on the chin it would put him down and often out. Cotto has hardly even been down apart from a half knock down. He has also always recovered quickly and easily and come back to knock each opponent that hurt him out.

    You can't say he has a 'shaky' chin because it hasn't lost him a fight that he should have won. He has won every single fight he's been in, therefore, one can only assume that it isn't that bad. It's not great, but then again, take a good look at the punches that he was staggered with. They would have hurt any fighter! Perfect punches by strong punchers right on the chin.

    Now, instead of bitching about people here being 'clowns' why don't you **** off back to maaxbooxing? Eh?

    No doubt people over there told you to **** off as well though. First post ****heads....

      People never get tired of bringin this kinda **** up. Cotto got hurt in that fight but he still won it, decisively too. His chin ain't great, but damn, give him his props for comin back on Zab.

        How many times did Cotto just walk into that upper cut? At least 20 times lol and Cotto just kept on fighting. That is a pretty decent chin if you ask me. You need to change your name to Queen Jiffy Bobber and bob on some **** lol
        my head is not working correctly......

        i'm trying to remember the konstantin-zab fight.

        was it the uppercut of zab's that rocked kostya in the 1st round?

        i'm trying to remember...... too lazy to look it up.

          Yeah, it was the left uppercut. Same punch. Tszyu went backwards to avoid it which made it look worse than it was though. Didn't really land that well. Just the way he tried to avoid it made it look like it landed flush and hurt him.

            His chin isn't great but it's much better than it was at 140, Judah and Mosley have the ability to hurt almost anyone.
