    Carnera by ugly decision in all probability.

    Id take Braddock by UD here, but I agree with the above that it'd be a very ugly fight

    They both seem to have plateaued out at the same general level, but Carnera was a lot more consistent, and had lot more very good wins.

    I would not be shocked if Braddock won, but I would pick Da Preem!

    I'd pick Primo by decision. I think Braddock's best chance of winning might be by KO.

    Primo -bum
    U guys can polish this turd every day, but at the end of the day he is still a turd. I just do not get it. It would be like on a baseball forum, endless threads about the greatness of Bob Eucker

    Braddock would probably win every round en route to a lop-sided decision.

    I think his point is more the absurd number of threads on a pretty mediocre boxer.

    Didn’t you vote for him being a better all-around fighter than Riddick Bowe?
