    How good is Cotto's chin?

    I haven't seen too many Cotto fights but he was stopped in his two losses against known punchers, Pac and Margarito. Granted both arguably stopped him through sheer volume along with natural strength, how good is Cotto's chin actually?

    He did fight Shane Mosley who is a big puncher and beat him but at 154 and 160 can Cotto's chin keep him standing and survive flush shots from guys like Lara, Charlo, and Andrade?

    Canelo is the biggest puncher at 154 so do you guys think Canelo would KO Cotto when/if they fight? Personally I think Canelo would stop Cotto in under 10 rounds.

      It pretty good..outside of the accumulation sort of stoppages you mentioned, I think he's been dropped only one other time? Someone correct me if I'm wrong there. Thinking back, I can remember him being on wobbly legs a couple of other times though. Against Corley he was rocked.... Ricardo Torres put him down once I believe...it was sort of a push but there was no doubt he was badly hurt. The fight was a war, both hurt each other on multiple occasions...definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen it. After that I think he was good until he got rocked by some Judah uppercuts multiple times (another good fight)

      As far as Canelo - he has the punch that Sergio did not really have in his arsenal and that is good uppercut. It's the reason why I think he opted not to fight Lee or Rubio at these weights because both those guys have good uppercuts...it's definitely something he will probably be hurt with if he fights CAnelo

        Above average chin, but certainly not granite. On a scale from 1-10 I'd probably put Cotto's chin at a 7.

            Its underrated IMO. Mosley hit him with some big shots in there fight, Margarita hit him with plaster, and Pac hit him with Steroids.

                Definitely an underrated chin, I think I agree with the 7/10 rating. It's more the volume of shots that has stopped him previously.

                Got a lot of time for Cotto - a true professional

                  He has a good chin. The two stoppages he was broken down mentally and quit.

                    It's underrated. I'd say 8/10, but what's atrocious is his stamina. If he had better stamina he would be an elite fighter and would have made his fights with Pac and Floyd much closer than they were.
