Wiman lost, in large part, because he had no idea how to punch somebody as short as Manny was. You could see it right away. He was completely confused about how to hit him, and had to duck his head to punch at first (which went badly, as you might expect). Since his probable strength was standup fighting and it was clear that that wasnt going to work, he was in deep deep trouble from the get go.
I actually think that it was a training problem. BJ should have had him working on striking a shorter person. You never saw BJ going over that with him, and it sure didnt look like it happened in the fight, so thats a mistake there in the training I think.
