Punching power isn't all about muscles. Getting the proper leverage, using your core (instead of arm punching), proper positioning and execution of a punch is what generates power. Of course the fighter's physical strength matters; but the technique of punching for power (instead of speed or defensive positioning) is what often separates many "punchers" from non "punchers". When you have both (great technical mechanics & crazy strength), you get a great puncher (See Mike Tyson in his prime; you also see this somewhat with Golovkin, Cotto, Kovelev, and other good punchers with boxing skills).

So can I, why people think he's on something is beyond me. If I do three weeks of weights and a couple of weeks of good cardio, go to a gym and get pumped up at the end of it all and flex I'm about 70% as ripped as he is there. Not so much around the abs they are a **** but beer needs a place to stay.Comment

Can't believe Bradley had a draw in his last fight he needs to win big to remain relevant in this fight!Comment

Lol you have no idea what your talking about. Punching power has everything to do with technique. Bradley definitely has the ability to be a knockout artist, but he would have to fully commit and throw all of his bodyweight into the punches like pacquiao does. That's why pacquiao packs such a punch for a little guy. Notice how mayweather cant hurt a fly, he doesn't put barely any of his weight behind his punchesComment
