Did Mongo really punch the horse?

No, if you watch carefully, you can see the man on the horse pulling the reins, timed perfectly so that the horse swings its head around with the punch. But no contact between fist and horse was made.
And that's the way it was -

That's what I thought. It was well timed. Still one of my favorite scenes, but I hesitated to say it because it would sound like I support animal cruelty. -

No no no..he DID blow it up. The thing that should upset you though was the Death Star explosion in Jedi. Think of all those innocent contractors killed during the rebel attack. They had no beef and were only working for the government likely with a juicy contract. Then some leftist fanatics come in and blow the place to hell.

No. He didn't.
You can see the rider pull the reigns just before Mungo "punches" the horse.

It was completely fake. You can see the rider pull the reigns before the punch was delivered.
In addition, it wasn't normal for that. There were animal advocacy groups which would have screamed bloody murder had he actually knocked out the horse.
