Who hit harder, Tyson or Marciano?

[machotime]

Marciano did not break arms in the way Tyson tried to break Arms.

Tyson try to break it by twisted the arms.

Marciano power right on thought with his power.

Marciano wins this one easily. One punch power has to go to him. Tyson may have more biting strength though.

And you are right, hitting the arms is a tactic. Not dirty like someone else mentioned.

how the *** is hittin the arm dirty, trust me, if i cud break arms, i wud do it, who wudnt

[Imira]

it's less dirty than some of the **** i see in the boxing ring today, but if u want to hear dirty, this is ****ing dirty, harry greb, the greatest middleweight of all time, used to thumb guys in the eye when he was having trouble with his opponents - he did it until Kid Norfolk did it to him and detached his retina. hitting guys on the arms is legal, the punches don't count but it's legal

It's believed that Greb's fight with Bob Roper, in 1923, is where he lost his sight.

Tell me one thing - why do so many people think weight has so much to do with punching power?

If that's the case, then Ali must hit much harder than Marciano, Frazier, Dempsey, or Louis.

just because that's how he started, doesn't mean that's his prime. that's like saying muhammad ali in his prime weighed 183 1/2lbs., cause that's how he started.
