Carnera weighed 268 pounds and Impelletiere scaled at 258 pounds. The fight between these giants began competitively, but by the third round Carnera’s “well planned” (Daily Journal-World) strategy began to work. For the next six rounds Carnera threw everything at Impelleriere as the two fought, mauled and dragged each other around the ring. By the ninth round only Ray’s Chuck Wepner-sized heart kept him on his feet. Referee Jack Dempsey finally stopped the contest awarding Carnera a TKO victory. The fight wasn’t technical or pretty by any standard, but they delivered plenty of action and drama for a contest between two big men. The fight was big enough to be shown in later in the theaters. A copy of the original film has been circulating among collectors but the quality is poor. The copy here is taken from a video collection released in 1990s. The dubbed commentary is distracting, but I included it anyway for reference, and sharpened the picture.
