A haymaker is a punch that is thrown with full force and total commitment. The punch is similar to a hook but employing the shoulders and the hips to enhance the power of the blow. The punch is intended to be a knockout blow, but if it misses the target, it can leave the fighter open to a counter. More @Wikipedia
