Mosley is past prime and has taken more punishment recently since he's getting old so it stands to reason his chin might not be as good as it was against Oscar etc.
Manny also hit him behind the ear and Shane didn't see it coming so it's more likely to hurt him, I mean I thought it was clear Shane's legs were wobbly. I just think it's a combination of him getting old, Manny's punching power, a shot he didn't see coming.
All these people saying Manny's punching power is disproportionate since he came up from a much lighter weight. I really don't think it is, Hatton is the only person he's flattened sicne his move up in weight and it was an absolutely beast of a punch. He hit Cotto, Oscar, Margarito, Diaz hundreds of times and it still took about 230 punches to drop Diaz and 330 to stop Cotto and both were late KO's. In Oscar's case Pacquiao hit him with the everything and the kitchen sink and couldn't drop him.
His punches clearly have sting but he's sitting most of these guys hundreds of times from angles they aren't used to and he's very fast. Surely it makes sense that one of them will hurt you?
