He's a pretty big dude, so the average person assumes he hits hard. Is it his technique? Does he have punching power? Is it respectable?

Why doesn't Bradley have punching power?

he doesn't snap his punches.
also he jumps around when he throws.
power comes from legs/hips, especially hooks and overhands. that's why you twist your feet and turn your hips when throwing.

he naturally probably aint that strong with it to begin with, being big muscle wise is different then having punching power. And Bradley is not the type of fighter who even trys to throw power punches to begin with so that hinders his power on top of naturally not having that much pop.
But bradley has enough power, he hurt abregu, Provo, and he can keep fighters off him, and keep them honest.
Most at the elite level aint knocking dudes out. Bradley doing just fine.

you'd think he'd have to had pop.

its the way you deliver your punch
you gotta generate power from your legs nd punch through your opponent
bradley more worried about pulling his punches back to throw more combos or to get out the way. think about when power hitters throw power punches its rarely in a combo, more like setup & bomb or judt bomb.
bradleys loves combos nd ismore worried about coming back to his guardthan to punch through. like others posters said, its tge mechanics he was taught, lesrned nd used. nd hes been winning ever since so why chsmge anything now

Yea he doesn't sit down on his shots ever, that does help him though because he throws wide anyway so if he took the extra time to sit down he would not be able to defend at all or get away without taking fire back.
He sacrifices power so he doesn't eat huge shots, and this is the way he has fought for a long time so it is ingrained in him.
