From Quora re: Marciano's power

Yes and a real classy guy gate-crashing the Holmes v Spinks post fight interview to bray about his brothers record not being broken and interrupting Holmes when he attempted to speak.

 

Nope he fell over after missing punches in several fights ,ballerina my arse!

 

How many real punchers did he face?

 

Acurate punchers, effective punchers can be the worst to fight. Moore could punch (most KO's), Walcott was a pin-point power puncher ( he dropped Louis 3X, Marciano & KO'd Charles among others, Layne could bang and Charles could bang (watch him KO Coley Wallace & Bob Satterfield prior to fighting Marciano

Guys like Big Cat Williams who were known as puncher but had very few KO's in the upper bracket =quality guys. I remember Earnie Shavers going the distance with lightheavyweight Vincente Rondon (who was KO'd by Bennie Briscoe,Jose Gonzales & Bob Foster

Oscar Bonavena had a solid chin and fought Frazier head to head in 2 fights & Ron Lyle,Leotis Martin etc. without going down(dropped Joe 2X) was dropped 2X by Jimmy Ellis a pinpoint puncher and and Ali pinpoint shot in the 15th

An accurate puncher is the most dangerous puncher

 

you didnt read my post = there is the balance of a ballarina (which Marciano was far from) but look at his punching balance and how he used his legs and shifted his weight & power, his punching balance was fine.[/QUOTE]

 

Moore was a great lightheavyweight puncher ,at heavyweight? Not in my opinion. Walcott was a good accurate puncher,power puncher? I don't think so nor Charles or Layne dropping Louis was hardly a unique feat especially the old version. Anyone more dangerous than Foreman?Wallace was never really top level he got a lot of exposure because he looked like Joehe was stopped 4 times in just 29fights .Satterfield wasn't that difficult to stop was he, 13kos against his name?

 

Does it matter? If your talking about balance he could go down just from a glancing blow. Razor Ruddock would be an example.
