Carnera was a freak. He had a good left jab, a great heart, a good
uppercutand a very good reach. He beat Uzcudun twice ( a former European
champion who beat Max Baer ), Walter Neusel ,Tommy Loughran and Jack Sharkey. He
lasted 15 rounds against Sharkey ( in their fight) and 6 against Joe Louis. He
hadn't a good chin, he fell 11 times against Max Baer... But Baer could punch
very hard ! You can't become heavyweight champion of the wordl if you are a
freak. Primo Carnera wasn't great, but in his prime was good
!Matchup:Michael Grant-Primo Carnera|

tape from the library once, Boxing Bloopers and Knockouts, hosted by ESPN's Al
Bernstein (boy, does he know boxing), and part of it featured clips from the
Baer-Carnera fight. They were lunging at each other like a couple of lumberjacks
in a tough man competition, falling down and everything else. Carnera actually
moved pretty well for a giant man. Neither would have been a match for some of
the real greats, but it was entertaining.Also on there was some guy
nicknamed "The Mouse." Real funny and entertaining to listen to. He has the
distinction of having been knocked out on each continent, save Antarctica. He
was once knocked out twice on one night. Recovering in the dressing room from
his first loss, he learned that the fighter in the main event had chickened out
and gone home (we aren't talking Madison Square Garden, I presume), so he
offered to change trunks and take the headliner's place. He was KOd again, but
picked up another paycheck. He commented that if he hit a guy with his best
right, and the other guy just grinned, he started looking for a soft spot to lie
down! LOL!|

sorry to disappoint you, but whoever wrote that attack on you is not me. You
know full well that I never take cheap shots at you or anyone else. You can
believe me or not, I don't care.I did tell some of the other regulars
and some Quarry family members one time about your post at the old Frazier site
when you repeated misinformation from another site about Jerry trying to put a
hit on Johnny Flores and they all gave you a hard time about it. Hey, I am
sorry I stirred up a little trouble that was sent your way, but I will repeat, I
never take childish attacks at you or anyone else and anyone that knows anything
about me knows this. But anyway, that incident at the Frazier site happened
over two years ago, GET OVER IT! Otherwise, I can't imagine what is
bugging you about me, but it is really not my problem and I really don't care
what you think about me.|
|9/28/03 04:51:56 PM|Massimo|Rome||7||||10| RS: I don't know if Carnera could
punch hard.What do you think about ? He was 6'5 3/4. His body was similiar
to the Andre' Rousimoff's body: huge hands and feet, big weight, but notvery
tall ! But probably he could boxe pretty well ! I think Frazier was
ahead of about 5 points after the first Ali' fight ! He won clearly ! Ali' did a
very good fight, but never or almost never threw hard punches to Joe ( maybe
only in the ninth round). How do you score that fight ?How did
Frazier react to the Foreman's loss against Ali' ? Was he surprised or shocked
?|
