Textbook punchers (not only KO artists)

Read the Haislet book and how he describes punching. I have found that to be very very helpful.
When you punch, you want to get your weight in front of your punches, and whip the fist through the target. There is a misconception here, in that many people think that you get your weight behind your punches. But that creates a pushing, not a concussive, effect.

I am slowly chewing it

I agree, but this is a bit too general for me, this is why I want to dig deeper

Thats a good way to explain the mindset; the Intention is the weight transference into the target. If the intention is to get weight behind it, it will push.

When you think about it; physically its impossible to actually get weight in front of a punch; It is possible to transfer it through the target though.

This goes to show the power of intention and what intent does to make the mind /body fire as one unit, like the difference between a match and a fuse compared to a detonator.

No pre thought, just action in intent.

Also you can see the extension of the same thing; when people have menacing intentions. They either finish the job, or if they have underestimated their foe, they over commit.
