Missing Bruno

[El Kabong]

HA...load of piss...Bruno was a fun fighter to watch, but he was never top class. You boys think he'd do well in this era? HA...he'd be top 10 no doubt, but he lost to guys like Witherspoon and Smith before...why wouldn't he lose to fighters of a similar calibre now?


Bruno-Brewster would have been a brawl, vs Morrison, Moorer, Rudduck, and Holyfield would have also been great. Bruno vs Golota...there's a fight Franky could win!

Amusing....I'd have a hard time narrowing it down to only 1 post that proves you know nothing about boxing you gingerheaded dope

Bruno would be top 10 no doubt but not do well in 'this era'? He'd have a row with Brewster (a decent Brewster decapitates poor Frank I reckon) Morrison, Moorer, Rudduck, Holyfield and Golota but he cant compete with the current crop?

Dont make no sense.

I wasn't joking when I said I thought he would beat Wlad by a KO. Can't make my mind up how he would do against Vitali mind

I believe Haye would destroy Bruno though Go figure

Horses for courses mate. Frank would struggle with the natural fighters, your Brewsters Holyfields would be a nightmare for him. He'd match up quite nicely with Wlad and Vitali because they are esentially the same fighter.

you cant add you own bits that dont make no sense when quoting a sentence that already dont make no sense

Those fighters I listed were VERY inconsistent even Holyfield at a certain point was terribly inconsistent which is why if you get Frank on a good night and those guys on some so-so night then you'd have great action packed brawls. Golota was blueprinted quite early...if you jump on him early and hurt him he's toast. Riddick Bowe may have even been a solid fight for Bruno if we're talking Prime vs Prime, because I highly doubt Bowe's ability to handle a true power puncher. Bruno vs Rahman...another solid fight.


The Klitschko's wouldn't have much trouble with Frank as they would not be drawn into a slugfest. They would pot shot Bruno, wear him down, tie him up, and eventually Frank would swing wild, get caught and it would be all over.


I think Frank could handle a few of the guys in the current division, but let's be serious man...Bruno was an underacheiver, the build and strength he had and he would fold up vs some steadier boxers. Tony Thompson is 6'6 250 pounds, a southpaw, and has very solid defense, he's a nightmare for anyone. Eddie Chambers, small but scrappy, great defense, solid counterpuncher. Cris Arreola would get drawn into a brawl with Bruno and it's whoever doesn't get hurt and I have to figure Arreola has the better chin. Guys like Adamek, Huck, Povetkin, Dimitrenko....those guys Bruno could well beat. Arguing about it is a moot point though as Bruno isn't coming back to boxing anytime soon

I can only assume you have NEVER watched Bruno fight.

Oh I saw him give Lennox Lewis hell....but Lennox was half assing it, uninspired, and still won the fight by KO.

You saw in that fight a guy that likes a slugfest?

Frank 'Gatti' Bruno

Frank was an aggressive boxer...a little tight in the shoulders, kind of like Rahman in his physical build a medium height guy with arms seemingly down to the floor...GREAT long reach, but he loaded up on punches a lot and didn't have the best stamina. Sometimes he'd be so aggressive he would smother his attack and get too close which is where Tyson caught him. He had no clue what to do when hurt, he couldn't hold on, he couldn't push off and circle out....and he would seemingly stay hurt for a long time as well, usually because once dazed he'd allow in another shot or two that kept him dazed.

Just not feeling the love for this slow, chiney,overrated one punch poney,
WTF every time he moved up in class he got hammered very badly, 4 shots at the title is a joke for a journeyman fighter , the only reason he got them were his promotional contacts
certainly not on his ability. He was shit end of story , nice guy though.

[BIG H]

I don't even think Bruno was that good, but I'd pick him to beat every HW since 2004 except Vitali.
