Jesus, it doesn't even take someone that knows or watches boxing to figure this one out. A fighter with killer instinct wants to destroy his opponent, therefore, they throw much harder punches. Foreman arguably the most killer instinct of any fighter, and, oh my god, he was arguably the hardest hitter of all-time.

Not every fighter has equally strong killer instinct. Killer instinct is as much an inherent trait as courage. Guys like Tyson, Jack Dempsey, and Joe Louis had great killer instinct and were great finishers. Guys with poor killer instinct let opponents off the hook subconsiously by hesitating to throw (for even half a second) when their opponent is stunned.
I also agree that mindset and killer instinct has a sway over punching power. There is some validity to this.

Originally posted by SkydogHow the hell do tougher opponents have more of it? Killer instinct makes you want to finish your opponent, or hurt him ("kill" him), something that usually hard hitters and great finishers do.
aaron pryor had awesome killer instinct, when he thought the guy was hurt, he was like a shark that smelled blood - that's killer instinct
