Re-watchin the the Tony-Cintron fight and Lampley's comment got me thinkin about some other body punch ko's from the past. Tony's was ok but Cintron was goin down from accumulated punishment anyway. There have been worse ones. My favorite would be RJ over Virgil Hill. Anybody else got any?
Miguel Cotto knocking out Rocky Martinez with a body shot that shifted his ribcage over.
Erik Morales' body shot to the solar plexus of Daniel Zaragoza...it folded him in half and Zaragoza knew it was over.

More recently Penalosa's crippling liver shot which stopped Jhonny Gonzalez in his tracks. Nice comeback by the tough vet.

I think one of the most dramatic was when Penalosa stopped Jhonny Gonzalez. Penalosa was losing every round and stopped Gonzalez with a shot to the body. I think even Penalosa was surprised by the look on his face. He was one happy little dude.
Jones-Hill is my favorite.
Arguello-Kobayashi was a vicious body shot.

Forgot about that one. Fuckin brutal.
Ward was getting dominated by Sanchez, completely looking like he was disinterested in the fight, then landing a perfect body shot to end the fight.
He also stopped Quinonez in round 1 on a body shot.
I remember seeing a really boring fight with micky ward, can't remember his opponents name, but the commentators were saying how shitty the fight was then BANG .. a little left hook to the head to keep his guard up then smacked him with a left to the body.
i think it was Alfonso Sanchez not sure
Jones-Hill is my favorite.

B-hop vs Oscar....That body shot was brutal. It look like he broke some ribs when he hit Oscar with that shot.
