I think Buterbean was king of 4 rounders and could lose the next two to get a decision over big Frank.
I'm serious
So am I.Quote:

He was a stiff and over-tightened clubbing fighter.
Much like Cleveland 'Big Cat' Williams.
You're not, and there's no evidence to back up what you're saying anyway, there's plenty of evidence to back up what I'm sayingQuote:

Besides, it's like saying "she was the nicest girl at the prom".
;)
Well I respect what you are saying yes, but fights at a good level are never based on 6 rounds so it is redundant.
I do believe he was too budybuildery (excuse the made up word) to ever be a great champion.
Too big and stiff and muscle tight, the same type of shit the Schwarzenegger had and he had to get stunt doubles just to run for him in films.
He wasn't agile in the least and that may have been his downfall.
Yup, I know, you make are really good case against, really good contribution to the thread thanksQuote:

Bruno schooled Lewis for 6 rounds.
R u guys nuts?
You can say likewise about most of James Toney 's opponents that
they are
1) best fighters over 6 rounds in history lb4lb
2) were schooling him til round 6
But then he would win / ko / school most of them
nah youre not listeningQuote:

Probably not a bad idea. Carrying it further, we should probably recognize those baseball teams (I know you don't do baseball) that score the most runs through the 1st inning..... through the 2nd.... through the 3rd.....
Perhaps we should research which was the greatest racehorse over 2 furlongs... or 3 furlongs.
Good pointQuote:

Frank Bruno
'I never thought of myself as a very good fighter. I had size, and that was
my advantage.'
'I would consider myself a good fighter, who failed 5-Times.'
a humble man isnt he, thats what made him a british superstarQuote:

that he only went 6-Rounds once and 8-Rounds once. So I figured that
if I couldn't stop him early, that I would get him late."
So I am a bit like Bruno in a world title fight ;)Quote:

"Frank Bruno Flops, Stopped By 'Bonecrusher' Smith"
The highly-touted 21 year-old Black Brit {actually Age; 22 years, 6 months}
was stunned in the 10th Round by American James 'Bonecrusher' Smith.
Well ahead on Points, Bruno failed to protect himself after getting tagged by
a hard-punch from Smith, who was desperate heading into the Final Round.
Bruno showed his inexperience, as he did not cover up properly, and did
not know how to clinch as the American tee'd off on him. Smith bombarded
the Brit with bombs, dropping him in a heap into the Ropes enroute to scoring
an exciting come-from-behind Knockout victory.
Frank Bruno >
"I feel shame."
Nah it's still early in the fight, if you were like Bruno you'd be kicking my arseQuote:
