    It may be a tougher fight than expected for Wlad. He'd be fighting another big man who matches him in the physical assets department. Wlad probably wins a decision.

    Seems like you're not giving Primo the credit he deserves. I thought we discussed that!

    Godfather Preemster the Kangaroo slayer would have mercy on that commie son of a ***** and win via a decision instead of a knockout

    Primo may give him some trouble for a few rounds with his strange, upsetting style and behemoth strength but once the Wlad jab starts landing its game over. Good night sweet prince

    I see Primo crashing to the floor several times before the ref takes pity.

    Carnera would be tricky enough to give Wlad some problems, but eventually that right hand finds its mark, Carnera get's up, but Wlad is able to force the TKO!

    I think so as well. Primo was a tough guy who could go many rounds, had a very good jab, and would be physically strong in the clinches when Wlad goes to tie him up. Klitschko wouldn't have an easy time manipulating Primo in this regard as he did to so many of his actual opponents. In the end I think Wlad's superior skills and conditioning under Emanual Steward would prevail to see him winning a decision or late stoppage, but not without having to earn it.

    Wlad ,as soon as he realizes Primo can't hurt him. Wlad had a terrific right hand and Primo was a sucker for rights.

    Is Carnera worse then Brewster? I don't think so. Primo has a chance here.

    Wladimar Klitchko would have a very tough fight on his hands with Primo Carnera, both tall and could knock out a horse. Klitchko could face a knockdown in this bout, and floors Primo as well, but Wlad has better stamina to score a unanimous decision here, long left jab, and a very crisp right hand.
