    Recently Pascal vs Hopkins 1. Hops broke Pascal down early with body shots, which payed heavily later in the fight. Historically almost any JCC fight.

    You guys don't seem to know what "breaking a fighter down" means.

    Israel Vasquez wore down Marquez with an EXCEPTIONAL body attack in their second fight and he may have been on his way to doing it in the first fight if his nose hadn't been smashed into splinters.

    Hatton was excellent at it.

    Mayweather vs. Judah was a great example, but it didn't quite to the point it could have because of Zab's dirty tactics.

    Castillo vs Money May I - JLC spared 5 years w/JCC Sr. and learned full on about the body attack. JLC stalked and made sure to hit the body.
    He took away the legs of Mayweather starting the end of the 5th.
    Floyd was tired real bad and had one of his worst rounds ever in the 6th. Many feel JLC took most of the 2nd half of the fight all thanks to the boodiful body work.

    No, Curry had been pulling away with his hands down after punching pretty consistently throughout the fight. McCallum eventually capitalised on it. Prior to that one punch he was getting cleanly out-scored.

    yeah no doubt some of the fights mentioned are great body punch KO's, but I'm talking a sustained body attack that visibly wore a fighter down.
