    Better body puncher: Cotto or Prime RJJ

    I'm hard pressed to think of anybody fighting today who can match the sustained body attack of Miguel Cotto...but I am reminded of a younger RJJ who knocked out Hill with a single body shot and broke guys down thoughout the fight with hard, crisp, lightning fast body shots. I think the comparison is kind of apples and oranges based on their styles but I'm interested to hear what y'all think.

    Chavez's body punch was like second nature, some boxers jab Chavez went to your body :yep

    Cotto puts a lot more emphasis on his body shots they can sometimes be a bit telegraphed but it funny to see the oppostion just brace themselves knowing its coming, sorta strange that they decide to brace instead of counter over it.
