Answer 8

Do what the old schools bare knuckle boxers such as John L. Sullivan did:Chop trees down with an axe!That will strengthen your punch a h**l lot!

Answer 9

1) plant your feet in a comfortable position which allows your back foot to pivot and your upper body full range of motion

2) bring your arm back

3)while swinging your arm forward, but your back foot on the sole and pivot while also turning your torso to follow the punch

4) most people think speed is the best thing but just focus on putting as much power in your fist and that should help lead to a great punch

Answer 10

The term is called "sitting down" on your punches.  Whenever ever fighters go for a KO they try to "sit down"  on their punch by digging the lower part of the body into the ground thus starting kinetic linking from the feet into the legs into the core and into arms and then to the fist.   Just practice technique on the bag,  what you want to do is to figure out the best form for your body to get the most out of your punch.
