not really. A person might have super-tight abs / be super strong in that region, but appear quite flabby on the outside - was watching some UFC last night, some of them MMA fighters LOOK outa shape but aren't.

I heard once that black coffee encourages the body to burn fat during exercise but maybe that's an urban myth...
Boxing is always good because it will help shift any exceess around the trunk of the body.

Having some flab over the abs doesn't necessarily mean that there is no super-tight/strong abs underneath it. And given that it provides even a little protection, I can understand why when they are in for the win rather than the (perceived) look.

Having said that, without abdominal exercise, I doubt that you would have super-tight abs or be super strong in that area. You can probably have visible abs if you focus on fat trimming, but they won't be very developed.

I suspect that's what's happening to me. I've always neglected abs exercise (in comparison to other parts), but while they are now visible in favourable light they aren't 'ripped'. I shall step up abdominal exercises to see whether the solution lies there, or further fat trimming

Yoga postures for burn belly fat

Yoga primarily consists of breathing exercises and a set of yoga postures or asanas. Breathing exercises in yoga consist of pranayam and kapalbhati. The various breathing postures of yoga help in contracting and expanding the abdominal muscles of the body whenever air is blown outside or sucked in. These techniques therefore strengthen the stomach muscles and also make them very flexible. Apart from this, yogic breathing exercises also help in burning more and more calories in the body as there is more oxygen available to burn them. Yogic breathing exercises are an answer to the question about how to lose belly fat with yoga.
Kapalbhati: Sit on the floor with legs folded under you. Relax and keep the spine erect. Now, close your eyes and blow air out of your nose swiftly while contracting the stomach inside. Inhale deeply again and let your stomach expand as the air gets in. Now repeat this breathing technique several times for 10 minutes, as fast as possible. You will observe that your stomach contracts and expands vigorously. This technique of yogic breathing is called kapalbhati and it helps in giving a thorough work-out to the abdominal muscles.
