    here is some good Footage of 2 Giants past, what do you think compared to todays lot?

    one is second rate, the other a noted Fringe Contender... I'd say big Primo hangs with most of the modern Giants.

    I'm confused… is this supposed to show, that if the film is done right, we will (as you always claim) be able to see, that the old-timers were just as good as today's boxers - or maybe even better?

    Now I don't want to heap ridicule on Carnera (we've had more than enough of that in this forum)… but, honestly, do you really think the Italian looks good in this footage?

    I already accounted for that by saying MOST, the BEST S-HWs will beat him, but the majority of grabbing & hugging scrappers are no different to the Big Piasan.
