One of the need things God has gifted mankind with is the ability to empathize. And though a man cannot become pregnant himself he can experience the joy of fatherhood as much as the pain of losing a child at the hands of another. To say men have no right to an opinion on abortion is absurd. Just as a man should not be able to force a woman to abort a child he does not want, a woman should not be able to abort against the will of the father. You claim it the woman's body but this is untrue - the placenta separates the fetus from the mother, the fetus is not simply a part of the mother. The essence of the right to life is that the fetus is alive and is human - He or She is not simply a growth of the mothers tissue as described in abortions (uterine contents) He or She is a living being temporarily dependent upon the mother and her uterus. While I believe man and women do have the right to control their own reproduction by preventing pregnancy, at the point of conception we are no longer talking about prevention but destruction.
