How much does power have to do with a knockout/knockdown?

[tkos]

i think it all applies. technique (punch starts from the ground and travels thru out your body), timing, power and speed. get all those in and hit the jaw or temple and the chances of a knockdown are pretty high.

something like a lightning strike,a thunder,a kaboom,it is very similar,but when you put your hip into the shot you are using the g-force of the body which translates the ions of power through the body

[Chr0nic]

knockout/knockdown comes from suprise, you get suprised(whether it be a suprise from how hard you got hit or how fast it was) and your mind wonders off before you know it you've been counted out

it's about punching from angles that knocks ppl down I box with my hands down so that my punches come from my waist that way my opponents dont see my punches coming and I can knock them down

[mrboxer]

you punch with your hands down,are you are just shadowboxing,because if you have a fight with you hands down you will get flattened,did you see when cuevas had his hands down against hearns and hearns walloped him with that right,cuevas looked like he just finished drinking a bottle of tequila,keep your hands up at all times
