There isn't one. Some fighters have terrible left hooks but their straight will knock you 5 rows back into the crowd. Others don't have a good straight, but their hook will plant you firmly on your back.

The chin, temple, and liver are the places that usually result in knockouts, though. The punch still needs to be timed well and thrown well to get the knockout, though.

Agree, the problem is that weight shifting is one of the most difficult things to learn in boxing, and some boxers end their careers without learning how to do it properly.

If you can master weight shifting, you'd become not only powerful but your defense will also improve.
