    Patterson, easy but messy, might get the ko.

    if it's easy, I don't think it would be messy

    Watch the Gains clip, x 12 with Patterson =Gains x 2, with Striblings punch power X 3...easy but horrible to watch. Carnera wasn't very good.

    agreed. Carnera was truly one of those guys who was successful because of his size (and jab too, I suppose). Ig the underworld also helped him a bit 2.

    Do we still need the Patterson - Bowe thread?

    No. I'll put an end to those. Bowe TKO 1.

    Seriously? I'm suprised at all this support Carnera is getting. Carnera's not getting passed mid-rounds.

    I never support Carnera. Baer was a clown and unconcentrated and he beat the heck out of Carnera.

    I might actually favor Carnera slightly here.

    Yrs we do because a case can be made for Patterson to do well vs Bowe. Patterson had a hard punch and was much faster thsn Bowe and Bowe didn't have good defense.

    Lesser men than Carnera made it past the mid rounds with Patterson. And if Carnera lands a good uppercut, bye bye Floyd.
