Theres punching and pounding

[muayThaiPerson]

I just want to hear what peoples definitions are for pounding. The fights I have seen, both live and on videos, I have noticed punching and pounding.

Punching to me is a planned and controlled strike with the fist. Pounding on the other hand is throwing your fist as hard as you can in any style possible, leaving yourself open

i call it "arm punching"....basically using just the strength in your arm to punch and use no snap at the end...just using brute strength to move the target. you see guys do this a lot on the heavybag if they have no idea what they're doing so they'll look big and strong by moving the bag around a lot.
