I was wondering; Who was the better boss between Joe Bonanno and Joe Profaci? (Both we’re bosses during the same time) (1931-1960’s)

Both ruled their family for over 30 years; (It’s actually impressive when you think about it)

Both has internal violence and opposing factions in their borgata during their tenure.

Both were disliked by their own men.

But… my question is; Who was the better boss and more imposing?? Made more money??

Who had a better sway on the commission??

Would love some opinions. Never seen this question asked on the board.
