Each of them stops Carnera. Vitali and Fury possibly by TKO. Wlad most likely by KTFO.

I couldn't even imagine the beating he'd take from any one of them. Maggie I have to ask. Did someone taut Primo as an ATG or something? Just a weird set of matchups.

Just curious what the regulars here think of these intergeneration big man matches. I've looked from old posts in other sections and you get plenty of posts like these, ex from a Primo vs Vit thread, Bert Sugar also said he'd pick Primo over both Klits but we know how he leans lol

Very evenly matched fight; could go either way. Almost for sure would go into the late rounds if it doesn't go the distance. Would have been ugly to watch.

Carnera was as big as K and Klitschko has had trouble with taller guys. Carnera fought better people and I don't think near as much of it was fixed as has been made out to be.

I'm sure Klitschko is the favorite but I don't see him as any lock.

I missed those comments as well. That's a pity. It's good, that they are refreshed now, cause Alp was at his finest there. :lol:
