Have any of you that have competed in boxing ever used dumbell sidebends to build your obliques?
A demonstration is here:

What were the results? Did strengthening your obliques with this exercise make you take a side body shot better? Punch harder? Punch faster? More stronger in the ring? Harder to move around by your opponent?
