any thoughts on these matchups? i think some sparks could definitely fly in both,but cant see an outcome for anyone.
Interesting. Lyle Carnera: This would pit Carneras boxing skill against Lyles power and counterpunching. Lyle would get outboxed but Carnera was not so hard to get with a right hand as Baer found out. I would expect Baer to visit the canvas a couple of times but lead on the cards. He would either get TKOd in the mid rounds or survive to win a UD or late TKO himself. Lyle Simon: Sombody wins by knockout in the mid rounds or earlier. My money is on Lyle but Simons durability gives him a chance at winning the war of atrition.
Lyle-Carnera would be a wild exciting fight up to the later rounds if it goes that far, I could see Lyle wilting in later rounds and Carnera defeating Lyle by exhaustion TKO. Lyle-Simon I would give to Lyle by Decision with both fighters exhausted after 12.
