    Vitali--Donald hasn't been mentioned yet. And that was the best exhibit of bodywork he ever did.

    Arguello v Ganigan.
    Alexis was having trouble with the in-out southpaw Ganigan. He even got dropped early and came roaring back with huge right uppercuts to the body. Ganigan was visibly affected, it stopped his forward momentum and his output dropped. Alexis then took out the backpaddling Ganigan with his bombing straight rights.

    Zoo v Hatton actually, great body work that night.

    Most fights that pit a supposedly superior skilled boxer against a crudely considered brawler, most of those fights were the brawler wins are due to body work.
