I agree, there are certain body punches that I dont care who you are, you cant recover from, it has nothing to do with heart or toughness. If you get the wind taken out of you your body essentially shuts down on you. Those liver shots are the worst, just crippling.

Ive watched it alot of times,because every body accused Oscar of sitting down at the time. And I swear that punch must have hurt like hell. Hopkins caught him just right on it,I dont even think Oscar was able to even breath until the count of two,let alone get up.
