What Punch is the Strongest?

If you ever watched fight science, a "science" show that displays a vast array of martial arts, and showcases which one seems to have the best techniques, you probably finished the show scratching your head thinking "What the heck? Caeporia really?". 

While I could go on and on why the experiments were flawed (to name a few: different weight classes, different techniques (front kick...really), different limb length, gloves vs no gloves) one thing is certain, boxing has to have the strongest punch. That's ALL they work on, punches. Yes, Muay thai fighters work on punches too....but boxing is only art that focuses on purely that.

I can already sense it....some of you are thinking BUT WHAT ABOUT WING CHUN! No...sorry, wing chun does not have the strongest punch. Please stop fantizising over ip man 2/3. Geesh.

Anyways, in boxing, I would say the hook is the strongest punch. This is because of the twist it makes on the body and the delivering force and speed it requires. An overhand right is great as well, but the percentage of knockouts by hook is high. 

Tomorrow I will go over the strongest kick. 

Have a great day,
