    Walcott lacked top end power? Rated # 66 on Ring Magazines greatest punchers of all time list. Knocked out a Prime Ezzard Charles with the greatest puncher ever thrown, knocked out hall of fame Harold Johnson, put Louis on his ass 3 times, first man to floor marciano. Floored/knocked out numerous top 10 contenders needing only ONE punch to do the trick most of the times. On Film, Walcott has top end power. By Contempoary accounts during that time, Walcott had top end power. Most Historians consider Walcott as having top end power.
