"Primo carnera is the worst Hw champ in history hes a sideshow and a joke,hes an embarrassment to boxing" bert Sugar Obviously you really don't watch boxing even the most of NEWBS can see who is more skillful..even Cunninham would be the number one challenger in Louis's day!:yep
Fury beats Carnera. Unless 'da mob' bribes, threatens or nobbles Fury before the bout. Oh sorry all of Carneras wins were genuine weren't they.......NOT.
Based on resume it's clearly Carnera. However based on film it's a little more tricky. Fury would have the size advantage that Carnera possessed over most of his opponents if the two were to fight and clearly Fury is faster of both hand and foot. However you can't just base it on that and until Fury defeats a fighter of note or at least puts in a very good effort against Wlad I would have to pick Primo. I do think Fury deserves some credit for the Cunningham win. Cunningham was a good Cruiserweight and has held his own with Adamek, Glazkov, Mansour and Tarver. None big heavies for today but would have been in Primo's day. And Fury ko'd him.
Resume?Carnera fought guys like 175 pound Levinsky ,Harris who was 8 and 18 and Joe Santa 6'9 guy with a "0" wins and 2 loss record?This is what he fought mainly on his road to a title shot! He lost to Stanley porpeda who was scratching 210 and Larry gains who was 7 and 13....the real question is who exzactly did Carnera beat that Fury couldn't?:-( More importantly who could Carnera beat that Fury did as a top fighter that would be ranked in Primos era? :nod
Yea maybe with his wrestling choke holds that he learned when boxing failed him after he became a pro wrestler?:roll:
Im still wondering who this guy would have to bribe? 95% of his opponents were garbage and he still lost to some of them!
Carnera scored 88 wins in his career and contrary to popular belief not all were fix jobs. He defeated Uzcudon a top level brawler twice. Tommy Loughran and Jack Sharkey (fix maybe, maybe not) two top shelf boxers. Yes Schaaf was sick. But his resume has enough forgotten names that are littered about to far exceed anything Fury has accomplished thus far.
And you really think those guys beats a Chisora level fighter and add the size of 6'2 240?:nono Uzcudon was 5'10 200 pounds Sharkey was under 200 pounds....Carnera can have as many wins as he wants,at the end its quality that counts..Fury would be unbeatable in Primos era and probably beat Louis too because he doesn't stand in front of his opponents and has an 85 inch reach ,look what little Conn did to Louis!.
I think Sharkey would take Chisora to school, all chubby 240lbs of him. Max Baer would have sparked Fury. Not sure about Carnera-Fury, to be honest.
I'ts Poreda ,and who has Fury beaten that Carnera couldn't? Exzactly? what sort of a word is that? The Poreda fight was a robbery but you wouldn't know that would you? Poreda spotted Carnera over 62 pounds. Commissioner George E. Keenen, who was ringside, suspended Referee Joe Mangold indefinitely for what was termed an "unpardonable decision." Carnera was warned in four rounds for roughness and back-handed blows, pulling and elbowing and drew the boos of the 15,000 spectators. "The decision given by Mangold was the worst I have ever seen," said Keenen. He can't possibly have any excuse for his action, and I have decided to suspend him and keep him suspended until he learns how to judge a fight." Santa's record was 60-14-4! Levinsky scaled 197lbs &194lbs for the 2 Carnera fights Harris was 23-17-5! You are an ignorant fool, who mugs himself every time he opens his stupid mouth!
