Sanchez had a GREAT chin, probably as great of a chin as JCC....
Don't know how much you have seen of Sanchez but that kid could box and I say kid cause he was 16 when he started fighting and only 23 at the age of his death.
IMO, Sanchez was an overall fighter he could outbox you or he could trade pucnhes with you and become the brawler...
Just last night before the Miranda vs. Gibbs fight I watched Salvador Sanchez vs. Ruben Castillo..... What a fight Castillo was game and slightly outboxed Sanchez for the first few rds. but Sanchez kept his cool and dictated the fight for the rest of it.. In this fight he did both box & brawl.
Another example is his fight with Wilfredo Gomez where it's clear hes there to handle some business not running from the what was considered harder puncher (Gomez) instead he came straight at him and took Gomez best shots... Sanchez stormed through and broke Gomez down... In this fight he showed he could brawl.
Then theres sadly but yet!!! GREAT fight his last fight against The Professor where he showed just how classy he was and regardless of how talented Nelson was and how well he moved in the ring Sanchez was just one step ahead combine that with his power... It was too much for Nelson.... In this fight he showed his boxing skills combined with his power...
All in all Sanchez wins via TKO rd. 7 or sooooo....
