    Hey Frodo, where in Birkenhead?

    100 Price Street. It's near Conway Park train station. I think the sign outside may still read Elite MMA, but could be wrong on that.

    :) its just comes down to body mechanics or should I say thumb position,in modern boxing gloves the thumb position doesn't allow for two knuckles to land properly,but in MMA gloves you can,because you can line up the arm better kinetically unfortunately :cool: this makes the punch about 30% harder than boxing punch,,fortunately not many people know this,so don't tell anyone

    Yeah, I find myself wondering if you have tested this mechanically (measured punch force) or are you just guessing? Studies on the output of boxer punches have reported peak loads of 4800 (SD 601) N for elite, 3722 (SD 375) N for intermediate, and 2381 (SD 328) N for novice English boxers (Smith MS, Dyson RJ, Hale T, et al.).

    Secondly, punching power is only relevant up to a certain point, far more important is your ability to land the punch accurately and effectively. I would much rather spend my time learning to put a punch on someones chin rather than training to make my punch more powerful.

    so the power of a punch has nothing to do with stance or reach or what your feet and hips are doing and all that other stuff that's been taken as fact for thousands of years its the position of your thumb.....

    sorry i dont agree ;)
    lining up the punch, and all of its power happens way before knuckle contact.

    its all part of the link in the kinetic chain if one parts wrong then its all messed up,you cant complete a fully kinetic punch in boxing gloves,if your ever in my area n/wales/chester I be happy to change your mind or you could just wait for the DVD ;-)

    How do you explain your shock wave elbow ? Is that more powerful than a Thai boxers?
