Are Bute's bodyshots, the deadliest in boxing right now

[check hook]

I was thinking about the exact same thing. Stamina really affects the way you can take a punch, so when you get deflated from a shot, it's easier to drop someone.

He stopped Zuniga and Andrade, and hurt Miranda with that counter left uppercut/hook. It's almost perfect because he baits them to throw a right hand, moves slightly out of range and comes back with the shot.

I can't stress how much a shot that type of shot can take out of you. Where you're throwing a right hand and get caught with a left hook to the body can hurt.

you are right....he sets up traps to land that shot unbelievably well....he is a smart fighter.....

as far as one shot goes, and the ability to take someone out or drasticly change the course of a fight with a single bodyshot bute is probably #1.

as far as overall bodywork goes glen johnson, hopkins, mayweather, cotto, mosley, caballero, juanma, israel vasquez etc are all good candidates.

Bute vs. Chad is the most exciting match up in boxing at the moment. floyd vs. martinez would be good as well.

[SplitSecond]

sure seems like that, those tiny little baby fists of his are weapons of mass destruction when placed upon another human body

[Shattered Jaw]

The hype for this guy will stop soon when he is challenged by someone that isn't shot and/or a very limited punch bag.

Seriously:

Joppy - Horrendously shot.
Andrade 1 - Lost the match to a heavybag (Zelenoff style)
Andrade 2 - Beat a punching bag
Miranda - Totally shot.

He's found that weapon recently and is using it very, very effectively. He pops seriously when he throws it to the body.

Despite the claims of shot opponents, body shot KO's can take out anyone, it's not a cracked chin.

[Irish Hitman]

Ya if you watch that Hatton vid, he just kept working the same part of the body, and moments before the ko, Castillo mouth just cringed when he was getting the hook to the body then Hatton makes him pay for it
