    Its the way he turns round and drops to his knees, that what makes a body shot in my eyes.

    Might be showing my ignorance here but the Hopkins body shot on DLH looks so inoccuos in comparision to the amount of pain it obviously caused him.

    Any thoughts?

    Sorry didn't see your post earlier, TBH lads i do wonder myself about it. Very strange shot, the reaction is a little O.T.T which makes it seem more suspicious then again body shots are killers and can make people do the strangest of things.

    I'd like to think it was legit but i do sit there sometimes and wonder if it really had that massive of a affect on him as he made out. The shot didn't seem to have the leverage or connection of say Hatton's but maybe it was the timing.

    Definitely not daft. I've always held the same opinion. One of the reasons why I was so against that fight from happening in he first. I wanted Pac to sustain as little damage as possible in fights while Mayweather was ducking him.

    Haven't seen the fight for a while but from memory Oscar was having a pretty tough time in there right? Maybe he just wanted out.....

    Agree 100%.

    As much as I'm a Marquez fan, watching him toy with Pacquiao and dominate him in the third fight was embarrassing, sad to see.

    Almost as sad as the third fight between Pac and Morales.... or the 2nd Pac/Barrera ''fight''.

    Nothing better, and less utilised in modern boxing, than proper body punching.

    Even light punchers can be great body punchers, so the only reason they don't do it is because they're not taught to.

    Sad, really.
