    Is this the Carnera opponents when they met Carnera vs prime Cooney, or is this prime for prime? Because if it's prime for prime I might fancy Tommy Loughran's chances (and maybe George Godfrey).

    That would be the triumph of hope over experience.

    It would be the triumph of a rib breaking left hook to the mid section

    It sounds like you have a lot more confidence in Cooney than I do.
