Media Joe Pyfer has harsh words for the nerds who doubt the science of him punching harder than Ngannou

Just have him fight frank and be done with it. Bare knuckle rules.
 
So, if this is valid scientifically, where are the studies? Otherwise GTFO. Pseudoscience and a guy trying to get attention.

Here's the issue with punching machines-
It measures the force by the acceleration of the bag. The bag has a given mass(weight) and that mass isn't very high. So a tiny dude without much force behind his punch will still be able to move the bag as fast as a car, as long as the car is traveling at the same speed as the punch. To get an accurate measure of force, the resistance (or mass) of the bag needs to be high enough to decrease the acceleration of the punch. Otherwise you're just measuring acceleration, not force.

Here's the thing you guys
 
These machines aren't the be all end all. Lorenz Larkin was scoring higher than Luke Rockhold's kicks which isn't believable. On Sports Science, GSP had harder strikes than Shogun and Cain.
 
I would suggest another method of punch power measurement- punch Hasbulla as hard as possible, and those who make him squeak the loudest are the ones who hit harder.

The whole thing is a promo.

UFC can't afford Ngannou but Powerslap can.

March 2025 - Powerslap - Pyfer vs Ngannou. Liddell vs Tito. Frankie vs Maynard. McGregor vs Diaz. Namajunas vs Esparza.

Mark my words.

The science on punching power is laughable. "Ngannou punches with the same force as a car driving at top speed" " Ngannous punch is measured at the same force as a sledgehammer swung overhead at 20mph".

Plus have you ever hit those little punch machines? I mean drunk guys weighing 175lbs can hit them into the 900s when it lands perfectly. Then Anthony Joshua can throw a haymaker and score the same...I get it, we all watched Rocky IV where Ivan Drago punched the fucking machines but God damn. Bunch of morons.

Dr. Joe got a little crazy with the Ford Escort. It is not an Escort going top speed but the force of a Ford Escort going 1 meter a second or 2.2 mph. Would that hurt? Might leave a nasty bruise.
 
Why does he care so much?

Most in shape people, got more then enough power to knock out another human.

Power is good. But it comes further down the list. Timing, accuracy, set up, and timing, comes way before pure power

3) Does he really care that much about a punching machine? GSP would have never set any punching machine records, but he set the records that matter, in the cage. Maybe he should focus more on the opponent and less on “high scores”.

Yeah, it's all good fun but it has to translate in the cage.

When they did this PR ops for Ngannou, it was just before he faced Overeem, so safe to says he proved the machine right and that's probably why it got remembered.
Had he gone for a lame decision or lost that fighrmt, nobody would talk about his score on the powerkube.
 
Prime Marreta must have hit twice as hard as Ngannou.
