    Cool, Qawi and De Leon would also destroy Johnny_B. So you agree with me?

    I could see this thread doing Bowe-Carnera numbers, if Johnny B drops some training footage and someone else pulls together some Sharkey streamables.

    Judging someone based on training footage has to be the most ridiculous thing on this forum.

    We can assume that Johnny has to worry more about power this time. Less time to adept against a featherfist boxer with the reach adv.

    The only claim I make about Carnera is that beating him is proof you can beat Johnny B lol... As I said we aren't even talking Donnie Long level.

    We aren't even even taking pro level.

    We aren't even talking top amateur level.

    We aren't even talking experienced amateur level.

    This is why the thread is laughable.

    If he looks a solid 220lb, hence this thread is way less ridiculous.

    Did I mention that two amateurs, one Hollywood fighter with power + beard and a lumbering oaf fought at the highest level of HW-Cruiserweight?

    What about Dave Jaco take a seat at the time machine?

    @lufcrazy We have an evidence that he beat an amateur with a weight adv. and lost to him via stoppage the second time. If my math is right, thats a 1 - 1.

    Having no power against top opponents does not translate to having no power against someone who never fought real boxing fight. You know that someone like Chris Byrd would knock this fool out without any problems?

    Carnera nad Baer were not amateurs, they were experienced pro fighters for a decade.

    Thats right. But an amateur with no power, no chin (other the recuperation) and no balance or whatsover finished him with a 1 - 1. Apart from this, he beat another guy at this weight (Wills was old and overweight). This game goes on and on lol

    Have you watched them fight on parallel view against even very young and unpolished pros? Carnera had size, Baer could punch a little and block punches with his face for some time. I think he was better at blocking than punching.

    Why is everyone hating on Jonny B? Could of been 1 of the greats imo

    Like Joe Louis said 'there are better fighters than me, they just work in offices'





















    (He was fibbing)

    Since we´ve seen Carnera fight, we can give Johnny the benefit of the doubt.

    Carnera wasn't amateur and Sharkey also beat Godfrey.

    We can't, he hasn't competed as an amateur since 16 lol.

    He's literally the least proven subject of a fantasy fight on here since Boston Tom had a run on a few threads.
