Joule to Watt-hour Conversion Table

In spite of the fact that the bullet has more energy, the punch probably has more momentum, and it’s slower rate of speed and higher force would “go through” the bullet proof vest easier, as the vest is designed to absorb a lot of energy from a bullet sized object.

A bullet fired from a gun would rip through your fist regardless of gravity. But if someone dropped a bullet from a few feet above and you had fast enough reflexes, you could punch or catch it on the way down.

George Foreman

In 2017, Francis Ngannou paid a visit to UFC Performance Institute where he created the world record for the hardest punch ever measured. The Cameroon-born fighter recorded a punch of 129,161 units, which surpassed the previous record held by kickboxer Tyrone Spong.

Foreman was stronger and hit harder, but Tyson’s technique with speed made his punches more devastating and the punches you don’t see are the ones that hurt you. Tyson’s would come at you at insane speeds, so you’d have a better time dodging Foreman’s punches than Tyson’s.

White explained at a UFC 220 press conference: “Francis Ngannou has the world record for the most powerful punch. His punch is the equivalent to 96 horsepower, which is equal to getting hit by a Ford escort going as fast as it can.

A kick is much much more power than a punch. It is roughly 6 times stronger when you have proper technique in punching. BUT! The weakest of kick which is a fast sweep kick to the leg without pivoting is much stronger than the punch you’ve mastered.

For the same reasons the overhand beat out the cross, the overhand also beats out the back fist. So, based on this, the stepping overhand is the most powerful punch.

The first and most obvious knockout punch is the cross. If you’re standing in the orthodox stance, the right cross is likely your most powerful punch. It’s the punch that generates the most power from the base, is launched straight down the middle, and lands square on the chin.

The one-inch punch was delivered by Anthony Kelly, a martial arts expert and master instructor who had learned the technique from one of Bruce Lee’s students. The conventional punch measured 325 pounds of force (148 kg) while the one-inch punch measured 153 pounds (69 kg).

So when punching someone in the hands (regardless of the protection of the pads), he will be able to give you some real feedback on your punching power. Even if you don’t ask him, you can just observe his reactions. If it looks like you are hurting his hands or if he takes a timeout, that means you probably hit hard.

To measure the force of a punch, you have two safe options: Attach your phone to a punching bag. Activate the app to record accelerations and punch the opposite side. I would suggest placing it near the top of the punching bag, and securing it with some tape or sewing a pocket to hold your phone.

You can look for cauliflower ear or a bunch of small scars around the eyes- big honkin’ knuckles or something- and those are usually good enough signs that a person has been in plenty of fights.

According to my calculations, the minimum force required to KNOCK SOMEONE OUT is “very low” & may surprise a lot of readers. If a completely UNTRAINED person is punched accurately on the point of the CHIN with a bare knuckle punch then a force as low as 5 PSI can potentially cause a concussion. ……………
