FRANK BRUNO ????????

[DarkDestroyer]

I agree to a degree.
Big George had a bigger arsenal of different punches

[BIG H]

Great power, just a terrrible defence after been caught with a decent shot, never covered up and just left his chin out to dry. Even the fights he losts (apart from Tyson fights) he was ahead when stopped.
I.e Bonecrusher, Witherspoon, Lewis.

He was behind on all cards in the Witherspoon fight I think.

Nah he was well ahead mate

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Actually i just thought of a way to describe Franks power
It was like the OLD George Foremans , big power not much sharpness .
YOU AGREE ?

No not at all. He did have decent punching techinque but was kinda stiff and slow.

Plus he was an unlce Tom

Sorry Frank, i know your not :P

I used to remember it that way too but Boxrec has him behind on all judges cards when the fight was stopped 94-97, 96-98, 96-99 so was heading to a points defeat anyway.

[Trainer Monkey]

Maybe if he didnt spend his time sparring against Sting........................

Actually his biggest flaw was never committing to the jab

[Tysonbruno]

Did'nt he spar Tom Jones ?

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Its not unusual.

[Trainer Monkey]

Did'nt he spar Tom Jones ?

I know Tom was supposed to do a charity bout with Tyson
You know,this thread would be getting totally surreal if this crap hadnt actually happened

[ICB]

Frank had really heavy hands and a good solid jab 40 wins 38 KO's where would he be placed in the list of big hitters?

Top ten easily like someone else said could never ko the elite of the elite but to be fair Witherspoon and Tyson had solid chins and Lewis had decent chin aswell.

He did have the power just not the aggression. I reckon he hit as hard as Tyson, trouble is he only ever through jabs really.

Frank dominated most of Witherspoon fight until later rounds but he was still ahead by atleast 2 rounds.

[ICB]

He was one of the 1st to wobble Tyson

Indeed it was only Tucker and Bruno that done it at that time.

[smashup]

Bonecrusher wobbled Tyson well before that
I remember someone taking a reading of Franks right cross and it registered a similar reading to a sledgehammer!
Think it was in the build up to the Witherspoon fight

[Syntax Error]

Frank undoubtedly had heavy hands, but his power was next to useless at the highest level, due to his lack of mobility, stamina & is lack of athleticism due to his over muscled frame.

He never floored a world class opponent, even if he did mark up or wobble a couple of them.

Ahh yea i forgot about Bonecrusher one he wobbled Mike with 12 seconds left in the fight.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

After spending the previous 35 minutes & 48 seconds hanging on for dear life!

Makes you think actually
