Greatest Body Puncher of all time?

[Barn]

Tell me about it...

Yeah, Joe was a beast on the inside, and I instantly think of Virgil Hills broken ribs when I think of body punching.. obviously cuz Im a Roy nuthugger, but yeah.

At least your honest

[Wild Blue Yonda]

Give me Alexis Arguello, please.

[Heavy Bag]

Yeah I agree Jake Lamotta was such a vicious body puncher. He could throw them in bursts at a really fast pace to.

He dropped Robinson with a body shot, and really give Cerdan's body a beating with them.

I'd actually rank Lamotta a better body puncher than McCallum.

A few others who I find very good body puncher's, Micky Ward, Julio Cesar Chavez, Alexis Arguello, Carlos Palomino, Ricky Hatton, Roy Jones Jr.

Maybe not the best, but Tommy Hearns was an excellent body puncher.I've never siin someone hit so hard downstairs.

His left hook to the body was lethal.

Mickey Walker?

Julio Cesar Chavez' left hook to the body is probably the best I've seen.

The guys I've seen in fights where I have literally been cringing for the poor bastard they are fighting because they were having their torso broken into little mushed pieces of pulp with some of the worst body shots ever would have to be Palomino (Stracey! Ouch! The worst body shots ever), Hearns (Barkley..how he stood up to them then came back to KO him, we'll never know. One tough bastard), McCallum (who didn't he break down; I loved the job he did on Jackson), Ward (Shea Neare, Green, Gatti, Augustus...everyone he ever landed that shot on), Duran (Fernandez; he was one tough mutha and took a brutal beating to the body for fourteen rounds before finally caving), Chavez (who didn't he hurt? Haugen was particularly painful), LaMotta (Robinson among many others) blah blah blah.

Mosley's were super hurtin' too against Margarito. That right hand in the first that he loads up on madly.....wow! I swear right when Margarito got hit with that one he knew he was in for a really bad night. You could see something in him stop.

Mickey Walker?

One of my favourites of all-time, & plainly in this discussion up to his eyeballs. A beast of a boxer.

duran in the clinch would rip hooks all day into the body

Stracey was one tough (and excellent) fighter, but these shots would have folded anyone. That second knock down was caused by a shot that looks like Palomino's whole glove sinks right into Stracey's liver. Talk about burying a body shot! That's how you dig a good left to the liver. His right to the heart/sternum was brilliant too.
