    Ward is the best body puncher out of the lot, hands down.

    mickey can knock you out with a single body shot and he did brake sanchez ribs with that single body shot and cotto is very vicious on his body attacks

    Ward has the best liver shot of all three and considering that what Mickey would do, I'd rather take them from either Hatton or Cotto. Hatton hits like a beast as does Cotto, so I guess I'd just pull one of those two names from a hat. But I would always rather get hit by Cotto or Hatton. Mickey would be too mcuh pain for me.

    All three are good body punchers, but i rather take Ward or Hatton body punch instead of Cotto's.

    I'd actually say Ward if we're talking about one single shot. Part of what prevented Ward from being in the upper tier of fighters was his predictability and lack of top-notch skill beyond the left hook, but he had great accuracy with that left hook and really dug into it. If each boxer only got one try, I'd be more scared of Ward's landing right on the liver than Cotto's or Hatton's.

    well hatton ko'd castillo who had never been down let alone ko'd before and broke 4 of his ribs with one body shot, and has stopped lot's of others before that. so he'd be my pick,

    Absolute bull****.

    To be a good bodypuncher you have to see the body shot and move with your opponent to land it.

    Hatton is no only a hell of a powerful body puncher, but he has speed in his locker as well.

    Cotto may have downed Castillo with a body shot, but I doubt he and Ward will have found the opportunity to hit that spot on a to-p class opponent like Castillo in the first place, to break two ribs.

    Hatton makes it look easy...those two wouldn't have found the opportunity. You need a boxing brain as well, not a piece of meat like Gatti hanging in front of you like in the Rocky films to show off your body shot skills. Like Corrales, Ward and Cotto would have very probably struggled against Castillo, Ward definitely.

    It scares the **** out of me just thinking about it. How do you choose between PAIN, PAIN and PAIN?

    Cotto, because he's bigger. I think p-f-p Hatton hits harder, but overall I think Cotto's punch would hurt the most

    Well in that case an old Tommy Morrison beats them all on pure power.
