Most of the content of this video is a liver punch which is usually made with the left hand, or the left hook in infighting, or the regular short body hook, in a short and quick manner. The drive is usually made under and to the front of the ninth and tenth ribs upward to the base of the shoulder blade toward the spine. The punch shocks the liver, the largest gland organ, and a center of blood circulation, and causes the victim to lose focus and drive, if not to lose consciousness outright, and can cause a breathless feeling in the victim. It is usually delivered when feinting an opponent to lead with his right, which leaves the body exposed; the attacker then steps in and delivers a short, stiff uppercut, over the liver, which will usually put the average man out of commission at once. Most of the time, however, a liver punch is unintentional. It begins as a left hook to the body, but as the defending boxer puts his elbow down and begins to roll with the punch, the back is exposed. Thus, the attacking boxer is frequently offered either the arm or the back of the ribs, the latter of which he will usually take instead of the arm. Some notable examples are as follows: Micky Ward knocked out Alfonzo Sanchez with a left hook to the liver in the 7th round of what looked to be a sure defeat for Ward. Ricky Hatton knocked out Jose Luis Castillo with a liver shot. Antonio Margarito left hooked Kermit Cintron in the liver during their April 12, 2008 fight. Cintron collapsed thus ending the fight with Cintron thrashing on the floor. Bernard Hopkins left hooked Oscar De La Hoya on the liver on their September 18, 2004 bout in the middleweight division. Oscar collapsed thus ending the fight with Oscar thrashing on the floor in pain in a 9th round knock out. Gennady Golovkin stopped Matthew Macklin with a left hook to the liver in the 3rd round of his middleweight title fight on June 29, 2013 for a KO win.
