    60% Timing, 40% Power. Varies though, those that really on timing often won't always have the highest % of KO, and those with KO power that don't use timing efficiently won't have high % KO.

        Punches hurt n more likely to ko you if you don't see them, but you could see a Tyson punch coming and it would probably still kill ya

        what do you think causes more KO's? And excellently TIMED punch or a punch thrown with exceptional POWER ??
        Both... ...

          The flaw in what you are saying is that Hatton never saw the punch that hit him from Pac. So it was a double whammy. Pac's sunday punch that Ricky never saw.

          Ricky was a very ****** fighter that night. Pac tried that punch at least three times in the fight, including about 20 seconds before the KO punch landed.

          I have watched the Mayweather-Hatton fight many times. Floyd also landed that check hook in the 8th round, in the very same corner. Ricky should have never eaten that punch again.

          That's the difference between Floyd and other fighters, I guess. You can land a punch (not a combo). And then you will be hard-pressed to land that punch again for the rest of the night.

          Floyd is a guy that eats a good punch every couple of years. Hatton, by contrast, eats the same punch over and over in the same fight.

            But nobody has ever stopped Mosley. In all those years only Vernon Forrest has come close.
