    I hear he really through bombs.

    Watching some of his fights you can really hear the bombs.

    How hard did the man hit.

    very, very hard. he was short, stocky, had a solid base and could really crack as a result. the only evidence you need is that still shot of him connecting on jersey joe's face. it looks as if walcott's face is being blown off.

    I am going to quote from Wiki:
    "Marciano's punch was tested and it was featured in the December 1963 issue of Boxing Illustrated: "Marciano's knockout blow packs more explosive energy than an armour-piercing bullet and represents as much energy as would be required to spot lift 1000 pounds one foot off the ground."
