 hand skills
First thing, 1 punch knock outs are more about luck then skill, If a fight goes longer you will see who has the best ability, But saying that, How could a MMA fighter who trains 2 to 4 hours a day covering, Boxing, Kicking, Wrestling, Jiu Jitsu be as effective in boxing as a boxer who trains 2 to 4 hours a day in strictly boxing, THEY CAN'T BE, There is a trade off in choosing what and how long to train on, That would be like expecting a MMA fighter to be as good as a wrestler in pure wrestling, What a MMA fighter should be doing is working as hard as possible on their strengths while working to protect their weaker parts of their game, I. E. A boxer must learn how to avoid take downs while keeping the fight standing, While the wrestler must learn how to nullify the boxers hands while setting up his take downs, Think the first Randy Couture versus Vitore Belfort fight.
