Punching outside of a ring without gloves on isn’t a great idea… People breaks their fingers, knuckles, wrists, etc. when they collide with hard bones like someone’s forehead or elbows… But if you want to be a big dumb punchy bastard a cross or straight right if you are an orthodox boxer will generate the most force. Generally you’re aiming for their nose to restrict breathing or tip of the chin to try to give them a concussion. That said, not everyone will just fall when punched… I grew up with a guy that boxed golden gloves. He was a champ in his weight class but even with gloves he could punch me all day correctly and it didn’t phase me. On top of that people will obviously try to block and that’s where the elbow and forehead collisions occur… I remember this kid Mark who broke his whole shit in a street fight punching a forehead when the his opponent did a quick head duck. We teased him for months. That’s what really happens in street fights. That said if you execute a cross properly, you are shifting most of your weight as you rotate into the punch in a straight line at your target. Aside from the cross, when someone turtles up to protect their pretty nose, throwing a shovel hook at the liver is a good knock out where someone stays awake through the pain. It’s much easier to throw someone’s head into concrete or choke them unconscious though. If you want to strike in street fights learn to throw elbows and keep your hands safe...

Jaw. Every single side of the jaw is mobile and causes the whole cranium to shake, causing dizziness.
A strong enough blow would put them asleep in one shot. Hooks or uppercuts are the best hits to land, hooks being teh easiest.
If you have some experience, wait for him to open his frontal guard and land a single hit to his solar plexus. He'll lose his breath for about 5 minutes, in which you can take your stuff and leave safely.
Do NOT, beat on somebody on the ground and turn them on their side if they are KOd.
There's still some level of gallantry in fighting, don't make it a savage struggle for superiority.

It's about technique more than physical strength. But punching someone without gloves, or at least tape is rarely a good idea because you can really fuck your hand up. Learn how to do a nerve strike if you want to take them down quickly.

Blyat76 · Answer

The chin my guy, I'm no genius but there is a nerve that runs along the neck/jaw area. Your trying to cause a lot of trauma to that nerve as quickly bad possible. Hooks are the most effective punch followed by uppercuts for KO's. Watch a montage of UFC highlights featuring knock-outs and you'll see what I mean. When you throw a hook try to keep it tight to your body, don't throw it out there. The goal is to move his head as quickly and as violently as possible. Watch a few boxing videos for form and tips then practice for a few hours.

Also, use your full body and pivot properly. You don't punch with your arms, silly.

Get a coach to teach you how to punch. Do drills. Practice.

You don't have to be that strong to knock someone out. It's more about technique, placement of the punch, and controlling space/timing.

Honestly if you just do push-ups on your knuckles with full range of motion for 20+ reps. Sprint/run and practice punching correctly then you'll develop knockout punching. But learning correct is most important

andreasderjuengere · Answer

One punch only would be a 'lucky strike'.
Your opponent is not standing still.
Also: the strength of a man is not determined by the track of blood he leaves behind.
In real life the strength of a caveman counts a lot less than the (can we say: ideological?) strength of his actions.
If you like, you could practice some martial arts.

RingOfFire · Answer

Even for the most experienced martial artist or boxer, knocking someone out with one punch isn't a sure thing. Part of it is luck. Hopefully you are not going around trying to do that to people.

If you want to be a skilled fighter, study martial arts. I did for 15 years. It will get you about as close as possible to where it sounds like you are trying to go.

genericname85 · Answer

you don't need to be strong at all. just punch their chin. that will knock most people out, even if you're not strong at all.

you could punch their throat or their temples but then you actually run very high risk of killing them instead of just knocking them out or breaking your had accidentally hitting their forehead.

and of course you always have the risk of it not working, depending on the physical constitution of the person you're punching. there's lots of variables.

pokerbot · Answer

You need to lift weights to build some muscle on those puny arms. Also practice punching with a heavy bag. But to knock someone out you have to catch them just right, ideally on the point of the chin. That makes the head snap back, causing concussion.

I mean... it's really impractical to do this as if a rare situation like this does arise adrenaline will get the best of you. There are better ways to incapacitate someone.

If they have a glass jaw it's pretty easy, same with weak abdominals.
