I agree with Bri Thai. Had our hands been designed for punching, we wouldn't have so many tiny, fragile bones in our hands. We would have thick wrists (not to get badly twisted), large bones (like the shin or the humerus) and very heavy, calloused tissue all over them. And, of course, no fingers to get broken under the tremendous impact.

Come to think of it, it seems to me that horse hoofs are far better prepared for punching than our small, delicate fists.
