    Probably Hatton.

    Loved Khan's on Maidana though, shame he doesn't pull that out more often.

    I think the smaller guys stand out when it comes to bodypunching.

    Hatton's dedication to and aim for the floating rib/liver stands out for me.
    It seemed to me like he held out a lot waiting for just that single spot to leave an opening.

    Barrera's aim wasn't too far behind that IMO....then there's Cotto who's pretty handy at finding that sweet spot too.

    As for the bigger men, Frazier talked about killing the body so the head would fall....but I think he ended up throwing as many hooks to the head as to the liver :). For body shots, Morrison and Tua stand out.

    that was a great punch but hopkins did not have a great left hook in comparison with other....i don't mean what single punch was the best i mean who consistently had the best left hook to the body....

    oscar de la hoya must rank up there with the best....also mcclellan had a savage one

    Any fight that involved the vastly underrated Mike "The Body Snatcher" McCallum.

    have to agree totally.....mccallum was one of the best body punchers and slickest inside fighters

    Nobody mentioned our own Barry McGuigan. One of the most aesthetically pleasing body hitters.

    Yes...

    And, Hearns wicked and beautifully executed body punches vs. Barkley.

    I also loved Hatton's shots vs. Castillo in 2007.

    I'll see your left hook and raise you a right, RJJ v Virgil Hill. Roys shot was so good that Hill's liver reacted as though it had been hit with the left;) Punch comes in at 1:00
