Canerra-Vitaly
At first I was going to dismiss Carnera totally as most of his fights were fixed (probably without his knowledge) and he was so inept. But then..i think about his fight with Max Baer...I've seen the tape many times.. and have heard the radio broadcast, and the announcer saying "he won't quit until he's dead..this man" and how he just kept getting up...kept getting up over and over long past when there was any chance of winning..even after he sprained his ankle during a knockdown in an early round....and I wonder if maybe that kind of courage and stamina just might give him a chance against some of the lesser talents in the division today. Now I'm not sure Vitaly is a lesser talent, but I'm not sure he's especially good either. I do know he didn't show the Carnera determination in his fight with Byrd.
