Carnera fraud? legitimate ATG? or something in between

  1. Carnera was a fraud and was never an elite fighter got to the top on size and matchmaking.

    3.6%
  2. Carnera was a full blown ATG with elite skill, up there with the best big HWs ever

    3.6%
  3. Something in between. Good fighter and very large HW but not in the same class as a Lennox Lewis

    92.9%

    Yes, I believe the 90% covers the 82% who already believe Carnera was a legitimate champion who paid his dues and the further 8% believe Primo was between a legit champion but bellow Lennox Lewis.

    I guess you'd call the Dempsey v Willard fight a draw!

    Not at all. 82% did vote that Primo was a legit champion. I don't see why a large portion of this vote cannot contain those of this persuasion.

    I no longer give any credence to you or Janitors gymnastic gyrations. I've just destroyed his own criteria on another thread ,he won't admit it ,and you won't admit your defeat either. It's like when you claimed Carnera was never in danger of being stopped by Sharkey in their first fight when I pointed out he was in exactly that danger several times. I really don't care about the results of any of these polls.I am just certain that anyone who calls Primo Carnera a great fighter is either an idiot or a blinkered agenda driven******.I'm sorry but its best to be honest.I don't give either of you any gravitas now.
