Frank Bruno v Carnera or Valuev who would have won?

Carnera was WAY better than Bruno. One was undisputed HW champion of the world, the other a belt holder.

 

Still think Bruno smash!!

 

If Bruno doesn't get Carnera outta there inside 4 or 5 rounds Primo stops him late in a clumsy barrage

 

Bruno stop Carnera early or he stops him in the middle rounds or he stops him late.

 

That would be the triumph of hope over experience!

 

He probably had enough power to finish Bruno is he gassed.

 

I will make another observation.

Carnera beat men who have been forgotten today, who were better than most of the men that Bruno of Valuev beat.

A win over a fighter who was not ranked in the top ten, loses its luster very decidedly, as the decades pass by.

I would hate to have the job of defending Bruno's resume, or Valuev's, if they had fought in the 30s.

I wouldn't even know where to start quite frankly!

 

You have no possible way of knowing that.

 

Or perhaps he had just learned to pace himself a bit better by then.

 

This. I like Bruno's technical jab and his power but the other two bring so much weight to the argument. Then again, neither of the two giants are particularly fast. On the other other hand, Bruno could gas in fights and if he does it's going to be bad against the two behemoths.

I think Valuev > Bruno > Carnera but there's probably not a huge amount in it.
