Classic: Joe Frazier. He would wear you down round after round with bodypunching and then would come up with the left hook. Current: Hatton is a powerful body puncher. Great Left Hook to the body. Wild Card: Paul Williams is starting to pick up some good bodypunching technique. Let's see if he can develop more in that department.

DURAN! no better than That. I like Ricky Hatton but I think there's no better master and banging the body than Roberto!
Great shout. Awesome bodypuncher. Some good ones in this video.

He never went into a second round after the Jackson fight till Benn, so it was never really picked up by commentators.
At exactly the 1:00 mark you can see Cintron's ribs pop out from behind the punch. Incredible. [yt]9u-QFwFpi48[/yt]
So you would be the only one of us who knew of Mickey Ward if he didnt have a great body attack? Dont see why.
