Bruno had a better chance in 1995 because Holmes was older and Bruno was more experienced. However Holmes may still have stopped Bruno late to retain the title if he had beaten Oliver but would have got obliterated by Tyson.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

Re: 1995: Larry Holmes vs Frank Bruno
I'm not sure what Frank Bruno did better than Ray MercerOnly bring that up since you'd assume the better jab wins, and that was still Holmes in the early-mid 90s at least.

God love him but in order for Frank to get over the line he needed a completely unhinged drug addict to be holding the belt. Even then he very nearly didn't and McCall only fought for about 3 rounds. I think if anyone else was holding the belt it would have been disappointment number 4.
