    He wanted a match that was arguable not a slaughter. SNV could do everything Ruby Robert could do but better. A complete mismatch.

    I only take umbrage at the "heaviest" part, which is factually incorrect and shameful. But, obviously this is more competitive than that. :p

    Fitz crushes Primo by KO. Fitz vs SNV is another story though, that's essentially Fitz vs uber Fitz. A great small trapsmith vs a great giant trapsmith. How does Fitz deal with a guy that does everything he does, but he's 7'2"? Fitz never faced anybody that went to the body like Niko. That jab to the body don't lie. Plus, he's 300lbs. He's literally the size of two Fitzsimmons.

    fitz could fight and punch

    carnera could not really fight but had a pretty decent jab and was possibly quicker on his feet than people may think

    laugh all you want i will take the smaller man and his abilities and punch to take the day

    A ref's fight ... If Primo is allowed to clinch and hold all night he may squeeze out a decision ... if they are allowed to fight Fitz would brutalize him and stop him in seven or eight ..
