    Torrecampo landed the same punch Manny landed on Hatton.
     
  2. Yeah, if you watch the video Sweet Pea posted, you can clearly see it hit his chin first and that's what knocked him out. He launched off his back foot - will the power rippling through his body into his left hand.

    Boom_Boom - Manny didn't cross his legs at all. If anything, Torrecampo tripped over Manny's left leg, forcing it over. Look at Manny's left hand hovering in the air. That man was seeing stars.

    Good work SP. Legit KO, no way of working around it.
     
  5. So in conclusion, the OP was correct; he wasn't KO'd by a body shot - he was KO'd by a shot to the chin. Good work Holmes.

    That's far from the worst count I've ever seen.

    From a jab aswell. Around 20 seconds between hitting the deck and the referee finally allowing the fight to continue. Hits the deck between 0:08 and 0:09 seconds in, gets up at around 0:20/21 I think and finally restarts about 0:29.

    The only time Manny was severely hurt with a body shot was against Megdoen Singsurat (knocked out).

    I have no clue where this "glass body" thing came from. The accusation that he has a glass chin has as much merit since he suffered ko's from both types of shots when he was younger. By this logic we should also say Margarito is glass jawed due to his knockdown when he was 21 years old
