Floyd's leg seemed to slightly buckle and he had a shocked look on his face

Not enough.

I was counting on Manny landing a possible game changer that would make FMJ do what he did v SSM (hit a higher gear) and result in him stopping Pac mid rounds. Pac could not get FMJ out of 2nd gear, IMO.

Did you think Floyd's leg slightly bucked though and he was a hurt

I think he felt the shot, but it was nowhere near what SSM landed.

He looked like he buckled slightly....but, it could have been a slight loss of balance as he went to step back after the shot. It's really hard to tell from the outside. It was without a doubt Manny's best timed counter of the night and I think it surprised Floyd somewhat.

I thought it was noteworthy that he elected to lay on the ropes and cover up for a few seconds right after the punch...which would seem to be the behavior of a guy who was momentarily dazed. Yet, I have the feeling that he had done his homework, he put the earmuffs on a couple of times during the fight and Manny never landed anything clean...almost like he knew that he would be pretty safe in that posture.

He buzzed him up several times. Floyd felt he was packin serious power which is why it he got even stinkier than usual. He got Hopkins stinky last night.
