Not that surprising when you think about it. Bullets operate on the principle of focusing force into an extremely small area, and armor piecing bullets just take that a step further by not deforming the moment they impact without adding any extra force. A heavy punch with the weight of an entire heavyweight behind it has so much more force than the few grams of mass a bullet has.

Yes.
But keep in mind when estimating these things generally: energy scales linearly with mass, but quadraticly with velocity
I can hit with the force of a bullet, with 0 training, using only a baseball bat.
It’s a bad comparison.
