It is definitely an interesting subject. I believe it strictly has to do with not seeing the punch coming and where the punch lands. Most times I've dropped, hurt, or knocked out somebody, it was with shots that I wasn't necessarily trying to throw hard. At the same time, I've tried to destroy certain people and really put everything into my punches, and I'll feel how hard the shot connected on my hand, but the opponent can take it fairly well.
Same with being punched, I've boxed guys who will throw everything into their shots and I see them coming, and while they may be thudding they don't necessarily hurt me. At the same time, I've been hit by a really good jab I didn't see that jarred my head petty good.
Look at Deontay Wilder vs Szpilka I think was his name, He was connecting with right hands all night and couldn't hurt him. Then all of the sudden he hit him with one he didn't even put everything into and knocked him cold.
