Force is the mass of the shot (ie the 'strength' of it) times the velocity, so simply building more muscle and delivering more force would not necessarily equate to an increase in power if any speed was sacrificed.
Big bulgy muscles often dimish the force of a punch if speed is lost.

I guess the laws of physics must have changed since I did my "O" levels. Back then force and momentum were defined as follows:
Force = mass x acceleration
Momentum = mass x velocity
Mind you, I am going back to the 80s, so maybe Newton's no longer in vogue.

Isn't the thread starter the guy who keeps starting threads about who was the hardest puncher or if anybody punched harder than Tyson?

well who is a one punch ko artist . tyson one punched more guys than any other heavyweight. For example tubbs, holmes,spinks,willams,stewart,tillman, saverese,botha,mathis and all these guys had pretty good chins.

Think you're right. Haven't we done these power qus to death?
Re: Did tyson punch harder after prison?.
people gotta understand harder and heavier are 2 difrent things
Re: Did tyson punch harder after prison?.
prison lost his sanity. bigger but not harder punch.

True. Imagine the kind of punch he would have had with a bit more speed.
A plastic surgeons dream.

Think WInky with the power of a rhino and thats Foreman. He would pummel guys into unconciousness, but he never ko'ed real competition with one punch that put them to sleep except Moorer. IF you watch him against Lyle or Frazier he hits them a whole ton of times with huge ugly punches, but it takes him awhile to ko them.

Didnt do him alot of good did it :) James Buster Douglas took away Tysons heart , so a bigger punch would never help him in the trenches , as Holyfield proved ;D ;D ;D

Yes, King Al ..... we are in the quantum age now (!).
And, yes, everyone else, I knwo that I was being an utter geek - you don't all have to rub it in quite so much :-[
