Why can boxers score one-punch knockouts while MMA fighters can’t seem to as much?

Why can Roger Federer hit a perfect cross court forehand winner and the local country club tennis coach hits it into the net or wide of the line.

There is levels to this.

 

Theres plenty of one punch/one strike knockouts in MMA. That's just flat out not true.

 

Even though this is NOT true..... I will say that.....
Its more difficult to aim properly with those small MMA gloves, and take in to account the fact that there are more variables in MMA, you have a smaller chance on aiming accurately towards the head

 

There are KO artists in MMA capable of rendering their opponent unconscious with punches, elbows, knees and kicks. Not all MMA fighters have striking backgrounds. Theres no absolute standard for MMA striking as they come from all sorts of different disciplines. But plenty of KO artists. This thread is just wrong.

 

A boxers punching technique would also falter in MMA if he had to worry about additional factors such as low kicks and takedowns.
