Why isn't Carnera in the IBHOF?

And yet the film shows crushing power punching. I guess fans (or more likely reporters) were harder to please in those days. Campolo was not sitting down he was counted out slouching on his side, obviously concussed. Can you tell me what is wrong with this fight? This would be a great action fight today!

Two super heavyweights going for it. This is on the level.

 

Um no. Just no.

 

Campolo weighed in the 220's for most every fight of his career excepting the last handful when he let his weight go ballistic.

 

Yes, it must be tough accepting Muhammad Ali had an 81% ko percentage after his first career....

 

And this stops him looking like a decent opponent on film??

 

You labelled him a super heavyweight. He wasn't.

 

Yes - I've watched the footage. It's a first round slugfest, by accounts - and looks to be one, from what little is seen here.

As the report alludes, the first round action appears to be more furious than the second. The clip you have inserted above actually mentions, in its accompanying commentary, the apparent weariness of Campolo in the second round.

Sitting, slouching, lying? Is that massively important?

Are you a doctor, by the way? I'm amazed by your ability of medical diagnosis, from momentary footage, at this poor level of quality.

I've rarely seen people suffering from concussion looking as lively as Campolo does, when he gets up immediately after being counted out. A real spring in his step - or is that just an illusion of the film?

LOL

 

What has that got to do with anything? You commented Ali had more stoppages than Ingo. Mac saw straight thru your charade and called you on it. Now you go off on some ridiculous tangent trying to save face, just like your Holyfield timeline and 10 000 other things previously.

 

He was a beanpole! Unranked both times he fought Carnera.
Shoulders like a milk bottle and skinny biceps .
Super heavy my a*se!

Monte Munn kod Campolo and he was concussed in that fight and hospitalized.Choklab makes it up as he goes along.
