    Could Bruno beat say a Jess Willard or Jack Johnson or Primo Carnera?

    He would certainly beat the likes of Marvin Hart, Leon Spinks and Shannon Briggs. Bruno beats Carnera.

    I wouldn't be sure he beats Briggs.

    Both had bad stamina. It would be 50/50.

    I would favor all of those men over him.

    Obviously he would just be too big for someone like Burns.

    Carnera wouldn`t have been able to take Bruno`s power and didn`t have the power to hurt Frank, plus Bruno`s jab would have been too much.

    If Briggs could get beaten by Botha, I think that Bruno probably could whoop him.

    More likely Bruno would have some early success, then he woudl gas late, and Carnera would put him away.

    You would favour Willard and Carnera over Bruno?

    Would he have done that to Baer if he didn't break his ankle?
