    But no, really...don't know if they're the "hardest" -- alot of factors go into a good body shot, and the most effective don't have to be the hardest....

    But some of the BEST I've seen (not yet mentioned):

    Trinidad-Pineda

    Forrest-Mosley I (people don't realize WHY Mosley shrieked the way he did...Vernon stepped fully into that uppercut to the body with all his weight behind it)

    Ward-Alfonso Sanchez - Sanchez went down like he was shot!

    Mosley-Taylor (that whole combo was a beaut, but that first left hook to the body was sick and almost bent Taylor over)

    Cooney-Lyle (first round body attack was sick - broke Ron down in 1)

    Hatton-Hutchinson - HUGE left hook to the body, could hear it clear

    Penalosa-Gonzalez - what a great left hand to the body. Beautiful timing, placement, full torque...great shot.

    Chavez-Taylor I - that great left hook to the body was key to turning Taylor to jelly and J.C. being able to land that thunderous right hand that sent Taylor down. Controversial the stoppage may have been, that left hook saved it for Chavez.

    Barrios-Nagy

    Jake LaMotta & Mike McCallum - pick a fight!

    Of course, it must be mentioned for history's sake...Fitzsimmons-Corbett, the legendary "solar plexus punch"

    Peace.

    Wasn't that the one were Sanchez was easily winning the fight but sudenly in the seventh (?) round, Ward landed a wicked body shot, and that's all she wrote?

    That's the one. :clap:

    Came out of nowhere - like Gatti-Rodriguez, but to the body. Incredible shot.

    Like Arturo (the poster) said, Ward did it again in the 1st round against Quinonez.

    Peace.

    Come on, bro...Ward certainly won more than two rounds in that fight.

    And the shot in the 9th WAS a great one...getting up from that punch was a huge feat of will for Thunder.

    Peace.

    Well, that's quite a bit up from "maaaaybe two rounds" (which means probably 1 :lol: ).

    It was a close affair where the KD really helped him...plus wasn't there a point deduction from Gatti or something?

    I don't remember my scorecard but I did have it very close.

    Peace.

    It wasn't a close fight. Gatti clearly won.

    Gatti won the first 3 rounds against Ward, the 4th was close, and then Gatti had a point taken away. Ward stole the 5th at the end with that brutal combo. Gatti won rounds 6-7. Ward took the 8th with another brutal attack late in the round that hurt Gatti. Round 9 was a 10-8 for Ward, and round 10 was Gatti's.

    I can see it being 95-93 Gatti, or 94-94 with the 4th round going to Ward, but I can't see Ward winning the fight. The 9th was a 10-8 round to me with Gatti doing very well for the middle portion of the round lasting about a minute or so.

    Hardest one that didn't even result in a knockdown had to be Leonard-Hearns 1. 4th round I believe. Turned that whole fight around.

    I loved the left hook to the body in round 10 of the rematch that Tyson landed on Ruddock. Tyson then followed up wiith some more shots to the body and Ruddock's face, as Ferdie put it, was "a mask of pain". Go to the 3:08 mark.

    Loved Forrest's 10th rd left hook to the body which had Shane squealing like a stuck pig.

    Landed by Leonard or Hearns? I ask because Leonard didn't turn that fight around until the 13th round...

    Louis smashmed Schmeling pretty good in their rematch. The punch lands somewhere around Schmeling's side and kidney area and makes him scream

    The body shot was not the story! That wicked sledgehammer of an overhand right was exclusively what wrapped that one up.

    Louis-Schmeling was brutal. You literally see Schmeling's cheeks flutter as the air leaves his body. :lol:
