The picture's caption doesn't make much sense to me. Everything I have learned about both knockouts and boxing gloves indicates little to no influence on knockout power. ChocoTheRed 10:05, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

I don't know this for a fact, but it doesn't make much sense. If you were ever hit with a boxing glove, you could easily appreciate how weaker these punches are compared to bare hands punches. The physics of it are quite simple. The gloves make the impact with the fact much longer (Every millisecond count in a collision), making the punch much less sudden.
