one scientific boxing study on punch power found this, the main reason HW's hit harder than LW's is higher effective mass. Speed is the other factor involved in power but this varied little between weights which was surprising i.e. HW's punch as fast as LW's. The difference comes down to effective punching mass which could explain why someone like GGG punches so hard if the mass with which you punch comes down to technique. So in essence punching power is just speed of the punch times mass of the punch.

HW's have more mass to punch with so it's easier for them to generate a high effective mass even with not great technique but someone like GGG generates a high effective mass because he has such good technique on his punches, essentially his kinetic chain linking is simply better than other MW's. That allows him to generate power all the way along the kinetic chain from his feet all the way through his body into his hands. This is achieved by perfecting punch mechanics but also some people have naturally better kinetic chain linking i.e. you are born with power. GGG is no doubt a natural as well as having great technique on top of it.

There are of course other intangibles at play when a punch lands like timing, distancing and accuracy. GGG has all these qualities as well which enhances the effect of his power.

Yes, tendon power is a big factor in this not necessarily being very muscular.
