    Yo Gimp, you can't take a body shot so you think they equal a punch in the eye. :patsch
    What's the ratio of KOs by head shot/body shot? Something like 100:1.
    LOL. You Gimps are so brilliant you fear getting hit in your brilliant heads.

    Body shots have won fights.

    Jones-Hill, Hatton-Castillo, Hopkins-De La Hoya, and Golovkin-Macklin.

    They did for Canelo against Lara, even though there were very few that were not partially or fully blocked.

    SweetSciGuru, You a damn pugilistic genius!
    No wonder people on the site confuse us for one another. We both utiliize that irrefutable logic, that is a rare commodity on ESB.

    To illustrate and validate your damn insightful post, ESB has a large number of "Chin checker" and "Glass Jaw" threads, but very few "Rib checker" or "Glass body" clubs. Thus proving the accuracy of your clear-as-glass statement that head (Jaw) shots far outweigh body shots.
    LOL. No one ever accuses a boxer of having glass ribs or a glass kidney. That's just foolish. Glass Jaws always dominate the discussion of knock-out boxers.

    Remember, one of the greatest bouts in boxing history was Rumble in the jungle where George Foreman unleashed tremendous body shots on Ali for 10 rounds, but without landing hardly any body attack at all, it was a short combinations of head shots that ended the fight with an Ali KO.

    I have no idea where you accumulated your vast and infinite pool of boxing knowledge, but I can easily say, this level of knowledge just can't be brought, at any price. Brilliant!
