If Bruno was here today in this day and age, he could do us quite proud. He had a decent jab, decent workrate and power. Lacking a chin and a bit of stamina, but most heavyweights are lacking something these days...
Maybe im just feeling nostalgic, after all Bruno was stopped in 6! :-\
Wasnt it the 7th ;)
Agree with you though, Bruno looks great compared to the useless journeymen we have around today.
Alot of people feel sorry for Audley it seems but he shouldnt have been so dismissive of his domestic rivals. Getting sparked by Michael Sprott is a big setback and its not as if he had time to mess around. If anything , he'll be more gunshy than he already is and I cant see that selling tickets . Sprrot said he isnt interested in rematches but then went on to say he wants a rematch with Skelton. For teh sake of British boxing I hope Matt blows him away cuz if Sprott beats him it just shows that all our heavies are as bad as each other
The 7th was it? You are probably right. It was a really interesting fight considering it was a battle of jabs. Bruno did alright considering what Lewis would go on to become.
Audley truly, truly sucks. Who is he going to fight in any rematch. He is 35 and just been sparked out by a journeyman. I truly think this will be a wake up call. We wont be seeing much more of Audley. He has money in the bank and wont want to be sparked again.

It was defo the 7th. I've seen it afew times cuz I love the finish . Lewis wasnt that great working with Pepe but he was still good enough to beat Bruno
The problem Audley faces now is that whos guna pay to see him fight . People boo him in and out the arena and now weve seen him sparked ( what everyone wanted to see form teh start ) he has no appeal . Like Naseem when he lost finally . Whos he guna rebuild against ? Its guna be a tough road back.

to be realistic, there is no road back. Audley is all washed up
Re: SPOILER SPOILER --- AUDREY v SPROTT full fight here plus KHAN KO
awesome fights.....Audley looks like he has some skills...just no heart, conditioning or chin....could be a good benchmark fighter though.....Khan, well didn't get to see much...looks like he packs quite a punch.....
Re: SPOILER SPOILER --- AUDREY v SPROTT full fight here plus KHAN KO

Todays American Heavyweights are the same. Just fucking pathetic. no quality about the lot.. Hell the skill level is shit. And the conditioning road work is pathetic. . Hell at least this match here Harrison -vs.- Sprott was a go. both guys working hard and letting their hands go, a rare thing these days.. And something to be proud of. Harrison got knockout fighting., there is nothing to be ashamed of in that .. one of his best performances until he got knocked out. Harrison came to fight .
Yes ! Frank Bruno was always in good condition and did his work in the gym 6"4 225. that’s true boxing conditioning mate ! that’s how its should be ! it’s a shame more of the younger Heavyweights don’t take this sport serious enough to get in proper boxing condition. :coolclick: in 24
