do the size of your arm muscles have any relation with how hard you punch? just wondering
 
olfa, have a look at the average boxer and you'll see their arms aren't really large in size but muscular and well defined.

More power comes from how you hit and the power of the shoulders.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm more into bodybuilding than boxing.
 
I'm into boxing and i can tell u that arm size doesnt matter.

Power comes from 2 things.

1.The natural all round size of a guy. You'll find bigger guys punch a lot harder.

2.Balance and technique. Throwing a punch is like building a bridge. It starts from the bottom and builds up through the body and peaks at the tip. Get all the nuts and bolts in the right place and the power will come.

Look at Danny Green. He was once regarded the hardest puncher in the super middlewieght division in the world, yet his arms are frighteningly skinny.
