    Rocky Marciano vs Primo Carnera

    Italian on Italian crime, who wins if both were at their peak?

    Marciano: 5'10 188lbs

    Carnera: 6'5 anywhere from 250lbs to 270lbs

    Would the much smaller rocky be able to hurt such a giant? Remember, primo was solid at such high weights, not like todays fat boys. This guy was a mountain of muscle



    That's 270 solid ass pounds

          Marciano would be dipping and ducking under Carnera's punches and brutalizing his body and head when he could get to it. I don't see a stoppage, but a unanimous one sided decision for the rock.

            Timber!!!

            The same way Louis and Sharkey (first fight) pounded Primo, so would Rocky.
            Primo was game though.

              Primo was a huge guy with a small chin and punch.

              Marciano would wreck him, period.

                Marciano completely outclasses Carnera and stops him late in a brutal fight.

                  My oath he would, the Rock was simply in another league, It would be a mis-match. A bit like the U.S.A. trying to beat Australia in a rugby league test-match or a Cricket Test-match,.. if any of you are waiting to see that happen, you need to live for another hundred years at least, no offence America.

                    I'll have them fight it out on "Title Bout", that should settle it.
