Just because a fighter has never been stopped, it doesn't necessarily mean they have a stronger chin than one that has numerous KO losses. A defensive minded fighter gets hit less than an offensive minded one. Does Floyd have a better chin than Gatti? I don't think so.
Agree totally except the Gatti example is probably a bit extreme Floyd never gets completely blindsided and has much better recuperative ability though, so on chin alone you could be right. I'm just thinking the punch that Mosley landed on him would have probably pancaked Gatti, and Floyd really didn't see that one.
