    You'll see some guys that punch good to the body, but throw arm punches when they punch to the head. It is easier to get your hips ahead of your hands when you punch to the body.
    The key to punching effectively, to the head or to the body, is punch placement. I use that term to include punching accuracy as well as timing, and creating the opening to land the punch. Guys punch "to the head" instead of to the left eye, for instance, or jabbing to the forehead to left his chin up so you can bounce your right hand off of it.
    Same thing about going to the body- you can go 'to the body' for rounds and take punches because you are reaching and forcing and not really doing much. Or you can get under one jab and land an uppercut on the 'floating rib' and the guy's left side and hurt him for the rest of the fight. Or time his jab and go to the heart and suck him up for rounds.
