    Default Prime Tex Cobb vs prime Primo Carnera

    I think Cobb would get corn-cobbed for about 6 rounds and then Primo pries off his head as the ref will not stop it.

    Primo Carnera was as fast as a two toed sloth and made Jess Willard look like George Benton. A media creation. Tex would have kicked the shit out of him. Probably in Baer like fashion.

    So would Chuck lol

    There is a difference Cobb could absorb punches like a sponge, Carnera absorbed punches
    and turned into a carpet.

    Carnera was a mafia puppet and was almost forced to box, would make a good movie...

    mafia pupper most likely but a decent boxer with pretty good power----no doubt ---give the man his just due and props. He was in the limelight there for a few short years, atleast as much as Buster Douglas or Leon Spinks was.

    Primo’s story is a sad one and he was used and abuse by the mob.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
