Are some boxers just unknockoutable?

What is it about guys like Shane Mosley or Floyd Mayweather . How come these guys never get knocked out? Is there a secret to making yourself unknockoutable?

Pac almost KO mosley but he keep running....There is no secret, these two guys has a great chin...Thats the secret, they are born to have a great chin...Plus, they are skillful fighter... It takes a great fighter to knock them out...

Floyd Mayweather has shown to have a decent chin, but he mainly hasn't been knocked out because his defense. That and of course he is 44-0 so he couldn't have been knocked out.

Shane Mosley on the other hand does have an iron chin.

Anyone can be knocked out. That's a fact. Just because it doesn't happen doesn't mean it can't happen. Tomorrow you may die, it may or may not happen but that doesn't mean it can't.

It's a question of human anatomy not boxing, no one is unknockoutable but many boxers have gone their whole lives without being KO'd but it doesn't mean it's because they couldn't be knocked out.

With great defense and a decent chin, it's possible to be never knocked down but if they took a sledge hammer to the chin then what do you think?

No disrespect to FlashKnoDown but what are talking about with people just being able to inhale cyanide and not get knocked out. First of all you are thinking of chloroform not cyanide which is one of the fastest killing poisons. secondly, fact is everyone can get knocked out, some easily than others it depends on genetics

There are some people that will never get knocked down or out it is just the way they were born. If you knocked them out they would be dead. I have never been knocked down or out but I have been shucked many times so I know that I could be KNOCKED OUT it just never happened thank god .I had over 60 fights. Everyone is different you could put 200 people in a room fill the room up with cyanide and three people will walk out as if nothing happened it is just the way it is.

unknockoutable?? Kudos,,i like the word buddy. Unknockoutable is best defined by Juanmanuel Marquez. Shane and Floyd were like Ali in many respect,very hard to hit and when hit, also hard to put down. But IMO they got never hit that many like JMM. El Dinamita got knockdown too many in his career but none was able to knock him out. Barrera knocked him down, Katsidis knocked him down, Floyd knocked him down and NO ONE knocked him out.Nobody really can. PAcman knocked him down five times already in their previous meetings and I always believe that PAcquiao packs power in both fists but MAnny always comes up short of finishing him. JMM was simply unknockoutable.

Is there a secret to making yourself unknockoutable?

There's one thing i know and its never a secret. Boxers just tend to have a granite chin or a glass jaw.

The saying that anyone can be knocked out seems to be true, but there are several boxers who were never knocked down or out.

If if you improve your neck muscles and keep your chin tucked in and become harder to be knocked out, that does not mean you can not be knocked out.

There is no secret you either have it or you don't.

George Foreman was only KO'd once and it was by the greatest of all time Ali.
