    Give me some examples of fights where working the body early paid off later.

    Duran / Moore, case closed.

    A textbook case of a fairly slick boxer with fast hands and power (Moore) being degraded by ferocious body punching until he lost his power and mobility and got wrecked. Duran at his best was simply a savage.

    Antwione Douglas vs. Avtandil Khurtsidze

    Very recent fight .

    Khurtsidze got inside early , slugged to the body to the head , the head back to the body .

    He was all over Douglas , hitting him everywhere he possibly can . it was decent bodywork.

    He did not let that boy breathe and broke him down .

    Unfortunately Douglas soul was taken in that fight .

    Lol I was a little hurt after that fight . Ive been following Antwione career for quite a while now .

    I enjoyed his style . I liked his aggression, the kid is skillful .

    He was supposed to be the answer to Triple G .

    I truly hope he can bounce back , regain his confidence and maybe one day avenge his loss against the so called " Mini Tyson "

    Only time will tell...

    Because honestly that was a beating that could have very easily ruin a young fighters career .

    Huck-Głowacki, very underated body-work that ultimately lead to Huck falling like a tree

    Calzaghe seemed to wear down Reid and Kessler with his body work.

    Prime Kessler was very good. That was a great performance by JC.

    Cassamayor v Katsidis
    Katsidis was wearing down Joel with great body work - Joel came back with a big ko punch though.

    Austin Trout vs Joey Hernandez. Not an elite fight, but even the commentators were saying "oh my God."
