Hi OMGWTF,
You asked:
Is the weight you transfer from hip rotation the same weight as you transfer from a step forward?
Technically speaking, no it isn't. No matter what punch you throw with a preceding step, be it a straight right hand, left hook, etc, there will be a millisecond difference between the step and hip rotation. The trigger step initiates the weight transfer then a millisecond later, the "whipping" hip rotation finalizes it. The two are synergistic partners in putting body weight into a punch.
Take Care,
Lito
