    Even if Carnera did hit harder (and I doubt he did), he wasn't as effective as Wladmir in delivering his power which is more important. Wladmir could be a real sharp shooter with good straight shots down the middle along with a cracking hook delivered with good speed and timing for a big man.

    Now if only you could combine the awesome offense of young Wladmir with the cautious outside fighting of veteran Wladmir, you'd have almost a taller Joe Louis!
