Fist Exercises for Punching

Hi there,
I am looking for the best exersizes that i can do to improve my punching speed and power.

I work out at the gym 3 times a week and practice kung fu once a week. At the gym i am just doing a basic routine, grouping my muscles into 'Back and biceps, chest and triceps, shoulders and legs'. On average i am doing 4 sets of 10 reps for most exersizes.

It has occured to me that this routine probably isnt the best for a fighter, although i have got a lot stronger and faster by doing it. But i want to be focusing my energy on the right areas with the right techniques.

One main place for debate at the gym is what is the best exersizes to do on the bench press with fast and powerfull punching in mind.

Any info on what bench exersizes are best for punching or what exersizes are generally the best for fighters would be much appreciated.

Thanks
