Small hands = lower punch impact?

I wouldnt say JMM is a big power puncher, he just has great timing and accuracey.

So saying JMM has big hands would say big hands dont mean anything.

In bare handed fighting hand size may make a difference. But in the ring, you and your opponent have the same size glove so arguments about force concentration in a smaller surface area are meaningless.

One advantage of naturally bigger hands is that they may be less likely to get injured, which can quickly end a fight if not a career.

Now putting plaster of paris on your handwraps... that can make a difference in punching power.

I believe it does to some extent. Obviously technique is still the main equator. But yes I somewhat believe. I mean try getting punch on the arm with a guy who has girly hands than a guy with boulders as fists.

But the main advantage of guys who have huge hands is that they are less likely to get injured.

I got a mate and his brother that weighs 168" and it feels they can **** like heavyweights ..but they got small hands !?

Abit late to the party. But I have small hands but my wrists and forearms are massive... Genetically.
My punches are like pistons. Seriously my fist is barely wider than my wrist.
Alot of my peers say I punch ******ly hard. My genetics are odd though... I have huge shoulders, triceps, for arms wrists, to the point people have said I should go on steroids for bodybuilding.
One thing I notice is that it's hard to hurt my hand when I punch because of the width of my wrist making it hard for my hand to hit on dodgy angles

not really, my hands are average sized and im a pretty good puncher. When i used to not sit down on my shots, I didnt really have much power. Its all about twisting your legs, hips and shoulder into the shot and expolding thru the target
