two big guys slugging it out Who wins and why? I see Bowe winning by tko in round 7 or 8 where the ref stops it due to the beatdown Primo Carnera would be getting
At his best Bowe, as i think he i sunderated head to head, but in saying that, Primo was much more consistent and over a longer period of time. I think Primo probably beats the Bowe that showed up fo rthe Golota fight.
I am going to mstick my neck on the lione and say that it might be more competitive than people think. Carnera was a little better than Bowe on the outside, and prety good with his uppercut on the inside. He could throw Bowe a few curve balls. I go with Bowe because I think that ultimately this would come down to an inside fight (ironicaly).
Bowe's big looping right would serve him well here and he would be too much for Carnera to handle on the inside. Not a good match-up for Primo.
Bowe easy... it might look like Bowe's win over Jorge Gonzalez (KO6)... or even Tim Witherspoon's win over Gonzalez (KO5)... both pretty one-sided beatings. A very good/great big man vs. an average big man.
Like has already been said Carnera was average. He was a big ponderous man, Bowe is a big skilled man and a real fighter. Carnera doesn't like real fighters. I don't give him the slightest chance, Bowe by vicious KO anywhere from 2 - 5 rounds.
I´m one of the biggest Carnera fans here.....but Bowe was too much for him, too much skills with power.......Carnera was a tough guy, but Bowe by TKO late.......
