HollywoodNews.com: Mark Wahlberg already admitted that he did quite a bit of training for his role in ‘The Fighter’ and it sounds like all that work really made him a force to be reckoned with now.
Wahlberg’s costar Anthony H. Thomas reveals that the actor can really knock people out in a major way, reports TooFab. “Mark actually has about 400 pounds pounds of pressure in his left hand, if he connects. I’m prettry sure anybody would fall,” Thomas says about being careful to spar with the actor.
But Thomas still took the chance of boxing against Wahlberg from time to time and admits he definitely didn’t do enough training to hold his own.

"Mark is a pretty tough competitor actually, so sometimes when we're fighting we really go head-to-head, toe-to-toe," Thomas, who used to be Wahlberg's personal assistant, tells TooFab."We actually did four rounds today, and unfortunately I wasn't training enough and I took a couple of strong body shots!" Adds Thomas, a native of Roxbury, Mass., "Mark actually has about 400 pounds pounds of pressure in his left hand, if he connects. I'm prettry sure anybody would fall.
