That depends on the opponent. Bruno had no issue with stamina beating Brown, Bugner and Williams.
Bruno's issue was more mental than anything. If he 'feared' his opponent (Tyson) or a 'situation' (Smith, Witherspoon, Lewis and to a degree McCall), then the 'stamina' issue arose.

Disagree on Foreman. If u throw those types of shots as a heavyweight, u become exhausted. It was more an issue of style than stamina problems.
Some guys that I thought had stamina issues:
1) Tommy Morrison
2) Michael Moorer
3) Oscar against elite opposition
4) Frank Bruno
5) Jermain Taylor
Heavyweights with stamina problems >
* Sonny Liston
* Jerry Quarry
* Jimmy Ellis
* Jose Luis Garcia
* Tony Doyle
* Al 'Blue' Lewis
* George Foreman
* Earnie Shavers
* Duane Bobick
* Gerrie Coetzee
* Kallie Knoetze
* Ron Lyle
Bruno had stamina issues and the top fighters knew they just had to take him to the later rounds.
The old Tyson after jail had stamina issues, he was finished after round 5 against Holyfield.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Tyson in general had stamina issues he only KO'd 6 guys after round 5 for his entire career and only ONCE did he stop someone past the 7th round. His record of fights that went longer than 5 rounds was 11 (6 KO's)-4 and for a guy sporting such an impressive record 50 (44 KO's)-6-0 that seems to show that if you could last with Tyson then you had a far better chance of beating him because he would tire out

Earnie Shavers A#1...just like Frank Bruno way too tight and loading up on every single punch
