Prime Carnera v any former cruiser world champ, how would he have fared?

He beats all of them with the exceptions of Haye, and Holyfield, and the Holyfield fight would be a close grueling affair.
Haye would likely devastate him, but the rest I suspect Cabrera would fair well against.

If the Usyk that fought chisora shows up it would be a national day of mourning in the Ukraine.

I could possibly see SS cunningham giving him a run for his money also

 

lol Chisora punches far harder than Carnera did.

 

We're talking a 40 year old shopworn chisora who'd been KOd 5 times in a row leading up to that fight.
Young chisora sends Usyk to hell in 8 rounds, I agree....but that's not the version that Usyk got

 

Chisora fought great v Parker who would have toyed with Carnera.

 

Carnera used his size to defeat Loughran and Tommy was an all time great light heavyweight who could have been a cruiserweight champ for sure ..

 

wheres Rez when you need him ,, he would post the "Primo shuffle" and then tell you how great Primo's footwork was
I miss his videos ,, they are awesome

 

Primo stamped on his foot and broke Tommy's toe which rather hampered his movement that and the 80 odd lbs discrepancy.

 

MNever heard about the toe bit but there's always a story .. he'd have the size on most cruisers which I believe is the point of the thread ..

 

Assuming carnera is at his best I think he’d beat the vast majority of them. Holyfield and Usyk are the only one I’d make clear favorites. David Haye and Murat Gassiev would be tough fights but not sure I’d favor them

 

Haye had far more power and speed than Primo.

 

I don’t know if I agree about power. At least not at heavyweight.

 

What?! How many guys did Primo knock out with one shot? Haye had deadly power, Primo could hardly punch.

 

Holyfield and Usky would likely have beaten Carnera.

Haye might have done.

Mormeck probably doesn't.

From there down, the entire cruiserweight division are his playthings!

Does that tell you more about the cruiserweight division, or about Carnera?

I will leave you to work that out!

 

Who exactly did haye knockout at heavyweight with one punch and more specifically someone who was any good ?

 

Carnera wasn't any good. He didn't even have Sugar Nikolai Valuev's punch resistance.
Haye snacks him around, wins easily.
