Are the Hardest punches delievered from a distance or from close range

Are the Hardest punches delievered from a distance or from close range ? or does it depend on the fighter and there physical attributes etc ,ive always been under the impression that the shorter punches are the harder punches because they have more body behind them but ,IMO that depends on other factors like height and reach etc i mean i would say its easier to generate power inside if u have the shorter arms as apose to being very tall and having the longer arms which usually makes it more difficult to work inside let alone find power on the inside

Fighters who hit hard from a distance Gerald McClellan, Thomas Hearns ,Kermit Cintron ,Chris Eubank i know Eubank was not a huge puncher but he hit a quite hard dig from a distance with his right hand he had Steve Collins down ,he had Malinga down ,which Benn could'nt do & I Also thought he had Joe Calzaghe going in the last few seconds of thier fight aswell , he had Carl Thopson rocking aswell a full blown Crusierweight ,i dont consider him a big puncher just explaining why i think he had good power from a distance etc

Fighters who were more devestating in close Nigel Benn ,Mike Tyson,

im sure if missed plenty of names out but i dont wanna bicker over the names i have chosen ,so if u think someone who should be included who is relative to the discussion please include by all means

When they talk about keeping your punches short, they mean keeping the strait. Not looping them, and not winding up. It has nothing to do with the distance you throw them from, or their actual range.

With that said, long punches from the outside will always have more leverage and force behind them than the same punches on the inside.

There is a reason why the term smothering your power exists.

Technique. Tszyu can flex his right arm twice in the motion and form a double impact, fully extending his elbow at precisely the right time.

For hookers, uppercutters and overarmers, like Tyson and Benn, it's about teeing your feet.

yeah but u are trying to say that just because u can be smoothered on the inside that your punches will have less on them which is true i agree ,but im talking about when u are not being smoothered and are able to fire a clean shot off with full range of motion, IMO u have more leverage & Power and u can drive through the target

It really depends on the fighter I think. Some guys can throw really short punches that are effective while others work better keeping distance and making sure the opponent is at the end of the punch.

Depends on the physical features, I mean stalky fighters like Tyson generate the most power with short shots. Then you got someone like Hearns who generates the most power when reaching and capitalizing on his leverage.

it does have something to with distance u throw them at, if u are 6ft + and trying to find room to turn your arms over inside to generate sufficent power cause your arms are so long

Ok yeah pretty much it's open ended. And it's good you pointed out that fighters with the right capacity can hit hard in close and at distance.

I mean.......Tyson would crush people with short hooks or a right hand that was pretty much as close as you could get to someone lol. And on the other end of the spectrum at a different weight, you'd see Hearns throwing the right hand and you could clearly see the nasty torque his punch delivered.

I think Tyson's in close punches in a P4P sense were more devastating.....he would throw with all of his momentum moving forward violently. Hearns would time the right hand to catch them right at the end of the punch.

Anyways if you ask me.........a right hand like the one Maskaev landed on Rahman in the first fight is the nastiest type of punch. All of the momentum with the punch moving through the target not right at it.

They're probably the best two examples for the extremes.

Other hard punchers (G-Man, Jackson) really don't apply because they could and would throw punches from all angles that were nasty.
