Ouch! What an ugly matchup! Probably would go with Valuev in a horrible fight. He seems to have a tad more skill than Carnera had. And i use the term "skill" loosely when talking about these two.

Hey Brent! This would have been a pretty good matchup. Primo actually had a pretty decent jab and stayed in excellent physical condition. He was able to beat Jack Sharkey and Tommy Loughran although he took some bad beatings at the hands of Max Baer and Joe Louis. Valuev is a huge fighter but has hardly any skill as far as I can see. I believe that Carnera would outbox the big guy and win a unanimous decision. Tells you something about today's heavyweight division doesn't it?

i'm no longer very inspired with Haye, and if he can no longer beat Valuev, i think of it potential, extra effective than something, that Vitali and Wlad are going to dominate the branch until eventually they be certain they do no longer go with to anymore. Valuev is slow and intensely constrained, yet he does use all of his length - if he can circumvent Haye's vast photographs early, i think of he can in simple terms positioned on him down together with his sheer length and weight. in the event that they're the two nonetheless around by employing around 7, i might %. Valuev to KO Haye in the later rounds. Haye hasn't shown the skill to take a huge shot, and this may well be the biggest guy he's ever had to try against and flow around the ring with - i think of which would be extra of a ask your self to his physique that he's waiting for. I hate to do it - yet i'm determining on Valuev by employing TKO in 10.

VALUEV - W 46 (KO's 34) TF 47 - W pct 100% - KO pct 72% - wins over Donald, Ruiz, Barret, Etienne and McCline (all average fighters and nobodies) - KO'ed by none
CARNERA - W 89 (KO's 71) TF 104 - W pct 86% - KO pct 68% - wins over Levinsky[2], Sharkey and Loughran - KO'ed by Louis, Baer and 3 average fighters
Author, Myler Patrick (Ring of Hate) claims that Primo's fights weren't fixed.
The movie, "The Harder They Fall" was a fictionalized account of his career.
Carnera fought a better quality of opposition. Also he was KO'ed by better fighters than Valuev will ever face. This is a bumbling, fumbling bout. Primo stumbles his way to 15 rd unanimous decision.
P. S. Valuev is proof that sometimes records/stats can lie.

Valuev. Carnera was the product of mob fixes and apparently was a reasonably likable man who got a push because of his size.

draw. Elimination bout to fight Oliver McCall. McCall has to sit through bout and starts crying realizing it is a draw and knows he will have to watch these guys fight again.
