Getting your ribs broken doesn't mean you couldn't take it to the body. Doubt anyone could have taken that shot.
Jesse Brinkley. Pretty good chin throughout his career, but hurt by body shots fairly consistently over his career. Hurt badly by career Welterweight Alfonso Gomez with a left hook to the liver, stopped by Joey Spina(in a fight Brinkley was dominating) by a body shot, dropped multiple times and eventually stopped by Bute mostly due to body shots.
