Boxers often have a muscular back but I don’t know how it helps generate power. (English is not my first language, so sorry if I wrote something wrong)
In: Biology
A baseball pitcher wants to move their hand as fast as possible to throw the ball as fast as possible. The ball is light so the force matters less than the speed.
A boxer is the opposite. They want to hit with as much force as possible. That means they want every muscle in their body in the punch.
When a boxer connects with a solid punch (not a jab) they want a straight line between their foot pushing on the ground to their hand hitting their foe. They want to get all of their weight behind the punch. The hand is just what delivers the blow – the force comes from their entire body.
