    Personally i think body mechanics is more significant for power development than hand size

    Im not sure Im following that, if ALL your power is concentrated on one area, wouldnt the largest area with more power do more damage?

    punch power on larger hands are = larger impact, but lower lbs per inch pressure.

    Smaller = smaller impact but more lbs per inch pressure.

    Although damage is subjective, probably more area damage from big hands, as opposed to deeper damaged from smaller?

    All things being equal I think a bigger hand does more damage but its just my opinion with no science attached.

    Yeah Tyson's upper body.

    Ive always wondered how much he would weigh if he was 6'4... possibly 250+

    Ike Ibeabuchi I think, was the closest to Tysons build, an four inches taller, his prime weight was about 236.
