Does this translate to throwing the harder punches? Not necessarily. Boxers win via KO/TKO or a referee decision. In MMA fights, there is a third component to qualify a win: decisions via submissions. For this reason, MMA fighters have to spend a majority of their time learning and developing a ground game, which can take away time for strike training.","When it comes to top knockout artists, who punches harder: Boxers or MMA fighters?",{"_uid":680,"answer":681,"question":682,"component":670},"d27a2f82-7cc3-439d-8e99-63ef52dd41eb","Another way to analyze the hardest punching fighters, would be to look at the fighters in the top echelon of each sport today. For Boxing, that would be Deontay Wilder and for MMA, Francis Ngannou of the UFC.\n\nWhile there may be plenty of debate amongst the fight community about who throws the hardest punch, currently the nod would go to Francis Ngannou.\n\nBack in 2018, while still on the climb to the top of the UFC heavyweight division, Ngannou visited the UFC Performance Institute where he put his legendary punching power to the test to see how much force his overhand right and off-balance uppercut punches produced. The results were staggering. His overhand right registered an astonishing 129,161 Franklin (f) units while his off-balance uppercut registered 122,000 Franklin units (The Franklin is a measurement of human force taking into account both the power and energy within an impact.) His speed power was measured to be 51.064 ft. lbs/sec which is equivalent to 92.84 HP, or the same as a compact-sized car. Both are still current World Records.\n\nNote: He shattered the previous record of 114,000 units held by Tyron Sprong (K-1).\n\nSo how does Deontay Wilder’s punch fare in comparison? That is often left up to debate. While he has been recorded punching a bar room punching machine (left-handed), this is usually an inaccurate measure of true punching power. There are a lot of people who would love to know exactly how much power he brings in his devastating right hand, but we may never know as there is no recorded event of him striking a PowerKube.\n\nOther fighters who, in their prime, could have been contenders for the hardest puncher of all-time are “Iron” Mike Tyson and Earnie Shavers.","What is power output and which fighters are in the top?",{"_uid":684,"answer":685,"question":686,"component":670},"155cb66e-1a8f-4803-82f4-e59a9c19be35","Looking at pure punching power alone, the top two overall, highest-ever recorded punches were both by mixed martial artists.","When it comes to punching power and power output, who punches harder, boxers or MMA fighters?",{"_uid":688,"answer":689,"question":690,"component":670},"152d00ad-9027-46cd-abf1-5381f9e5fbe9","Some people like to debate who is the harder puncher between the unbeaten Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and one of the best KO artists from the UFC, Conor McGregor.\n\nIf we look at the overall outcome of the match-up, Boxing and Mayweather win. Mayweather was able to get a TKO over McGregor in the 10th round of the bout. The only question is, does this settle the debate? Not quite.\n\nMost people would argue that the only way McGregor would have won the bout would have been if he tagged Mayweather with one of his devastating lefts and dropped Mayweather early on in the fight. However, there is a reason Mayweather has a perfect 50-0 record during his career: his ability to avoid the big hit from his opponents, demonstrating the true goal of Boxing: hit and not get hit.\n\nUltimately, in this scenario, Mayweather is the better boxer. Had both of these men tested their punches on a PowerKube, the results would more than likely sway in favor of McGregor for the most powerful punch. McGregor has an impressive 81% of his fights coming via KO, while Mayweather, who has never really been known for his striking power, holds a 54% KO rate (including TKOs).","Who is the harder puncher between Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and Conor McGregor?",{"_uid":692,"answer":693,"question":694,"component":670},"90549745-5064-4c44-a8cf-f09fa0e04275","When it comes to who punches harder between Boxers or MMA fighters, this is still left open to interpretation. Ultimately, it comes down to the fighters as individuals. More than likely the overall nod would have to go with Boxers for overall pound-for-pound power. Punching is what they train, and punching is what they do. Many of the best MMA fighters of all-time were grapplers. In order to be the best all-around, too much of their fight has to focus on the ground game to be able to take on challengers from all martial arts disciplines.

Roosevelt is one of the first high-profile members of the Harvard Boxing Club. Other prestigious names who were in the ring after class include President JFK and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Norman Miller.\n\nNot many people realize how badass these guys really were. Before JFK was President, he was a World War II hero. Teddy Roosevelt was the leader of the Rough Riders, the most famous American regiment in the Spanish-American War of 1898. He survived the infamous San Juan Hill death trap by leading 500 men headfirst into a charge that ultimately won the battle.\n\nIn another demonstration of pure grit, Roosevelt finished a campaign speech with a bullet wound after being shot. Roosevelt also famously had a boxing ring in the White House where he would spar regularly. During one heated bout, he got hit in the eye and tore his retina, eventually losing vision in that eye.","When did the Harvard boxing program start?",{"_uid":1275,"answer":1276,"question":1277,"component":670},"9fc8f069-63e4-44ec-b255-50678bc91603","Fast forward to 1937, and college boxing had become a big deal at Harvard. Boxing was at the same level as all the major collegiate sports. The typical opponents were Harvard rivals at the time including MIT, Yale, and Dartmouth.\n\nIt was around this time that both JFK and Norman Mailer were attending Harvard and were part of the boxing program. Many view this time as something of a Golden Era for the Harvard Boxing Team.\n\nIn 1941, a year after JFK graduated, the U.S. entered World War II. At that time, Harvard made it mandatory for all undergraduates to participate in intercollegiate boxing training as a way of improving their wartime fitness.\n\nTo bolster the program, Harvard brought in the legendary boxing champion Tommy Rawson. He led the program well into his 90s. In the 1940s and ‘50s, many of these collegiate matches would draw crowds of 10,000 people. In college sports popularity, this made boxing second only to football at that time.","Was JFK on the Harvard boxing team?",{"_uid":1279,"answer":1280,"question":1281,"component":670},"e7265ce2-f47c-4aae-bde8-0687813b47a1","In 1960, following the death of a university student from injuries received in the ring, the NCAA made the decision to do away with boxing. This is even though football has seen similar tragedies over the years – and is scientifically proven to be more dangerous than boxing.\n\nAfter the ban and up to today, the Harvard Boxing Club still exists as an unofficial sports club. It still functions, but its popularity pales in comparison to other college sports.\n\nTommy's opinion, not preparing young men and women for life by introducing them to martial arts is far more dangerous. What could we be if we readily embraced what Teddy Roosevelt called ‘the strenuous life’?
