    Default Frank Bruno really outclassed Lennox Lewis - Lewis not in Top 10

    Amazing showing there by Frank. Had only seen clips of round 2,4 and 6 before this. I think this shows how Lewis was only great when he fought smaller guys. Frank Bruno was his size, and Bruno beat him up for 6 rounds before getting careless there in the 7th was it. Also Bruno should have just taken a knee to recover from that uppercut. Lennox Lewis pulled it out and I give him credit for that, but you can see when a guy HIS SIZE with HIS REACH fights him and fights hard, he seriously is undermined, his jab was nil, he was getting double and triple jabbed by Bruno all night long, Bruno rocked him on 3 occasions with rights. Just before Lewis caught Bruno, Lewis had been seriously stunned by a nice left hook/uppercut type punch from Bruno. Amazing to see, I think Vitali had watched this fight well and saw the blue print how to beat Lewis.

    Now having seen this fight and remembering Ray Mercer's awesome performance, and Vitali's, and putting in how Oliver and Hasim smoked him with single shots, I really have to take him out of my Top 10 HW Greats. He benefited largely as I have always said from his garganatuan size, and his unnatural reach. I place him at #12 All Time HW.
