    What do you guys think?

    Cotto was a vicious body puncher a few years ago but has gotten away from it a little. Abraham is a vicious body puncher but it's kinda overlooked by his hilight reel knockouts. Rigondeaux has been vicious to the body but it's been against tomato cans....

    who do you guys think has the most brutal body punches?

    Lucian Bute got a nice body uppercut, Hatton is pretty hard on enemy's body too.

    Cotto and Mosley work the body well. Hatton was brilliant in his pomp.

    Bute

    He has knockout power with his uppercut to the body.
    I would say that half of his knockout he obtained them with that shot.

    Rigondeaux judging by his ratio.

    Cotto??? Yeah he hasn't hurt anybody with body shots since Gomez.

    Pac laid on the ropes and Cotto looked lost.

    We are talking about the Cotto, who did go most of the time to the body, nog like the Margarito fight or the fights after that.

    Maybe the Foreman fight we will see him being the body puncher

    Bute, Rigondeaux, Montiel today - Arce and Cotto used to be good - Abraham is getting better and better.

    Giovani Seguras last 3 knockouts have all came by bodyshots. So I'll put Segura up the with the most brutal body puncher today. Go check out his last fight against Sonny Boy Jaro, and see how Jaro is bent in pain from that body shot.

    Hatton still has it on offense before he came to the US every other shot was a hook to the body and even he doesnt bang to the rib cage as much anymore.
    Floyd is an under rated body puncher
    Mossley is good

    Actually thinking about it there is anyone out there at the mo that i really class as a grade A body puncher someone who is really going go all out to blast someone' s rib cage away. Funny really sure thres more

    He has neglected his body assult in his last couple fights. I hope he gets back to his body banging against Foreman.

    Cotto hasn't been a consistent body puncher since Judah honestly.

    I'll throw a vote towards Humberto Soto.
