Primo Carnera: #18 Greatest HW of All Time

[SlimTrae]

Where does the idea he was 6'9" come from?

Boxrec has him 6'5" and 1/2, Wikipedia has him 6'6.

A web page I wont take seriously again: I stand corrected.

But hey..at least I admitted I didn't know much about the guy from the getgo.

Back in the day newspaper accounts
