20 years ago! Bruno v McCall

[X]

by all accounts, a lovely bloke. I feel really sorry for him and his family for the hardship they will have faced during his struggle with mental illness.

He would have likely picked up an alphabet title nowadays, I think a fight with Wilder would be a shoutout, with whoever lands first spectacularly kayoing the other. I suspect Frank had better technique and grounding in the sport to be the favourite to land first.

I can't see him having the better of either Klitschko, though.

I think wilder would try and outboxing him.

If Bruno landed on Wlads chin, it would be over for the Klit.

[Mark TKO]

I think Frank beats Wlad within 6


Jab jab jab jab jab from Wlad, boom from Frank and it's over

[tysonesque]

Bruno is probably cursing his luck that he isn't a few years younger and able to fight now. As limited as he was, he could have beaten Wlad no problem.

He did ok. The only person who ever totally blitzed him was Tyson and there's no shame in that.

It was a travesty Bruno wasn't disqualified for that foul festival. Be it the terrible holding, the holding behind the head or the 200 rabbit punches.

But in the end he had that one title fight victory for 1-4 in title fights.

Im not sure you have your numbers totally right but let's have a look who he fought in title fights, quoting the numbers doesn't tell the whole story

And if Bruno should have been DQd in that fight then wlad should have been retired for years

[Master]

All the champions that beat Bruno would beat or pose significant problems for Wlad.

Bruno had the power to seriously hurt Wlad, his major problem was stamina because he was musclebound and mentally fragile in the big fights.

Frank Bruno - lb4lb the greatest hw of all time

Frank Bruno may have been limited but he would have eaten then likes of - Fury , Chisora , etc for breakfast.

Immediately after an unabashed, ridiculous exaggeration..... a much more sensible post on the matter.

When I started reading this post I was expecting some negativity, but it turned out quite positive, well done

I'm fair but I'm firm.

[No Contest]

McCall was one of those fighters you never knew what was gonna happen. Bruno was decent, I wanted him to beat Tyson(I always rooted against Tyson). I also wanted Razor Ruddock to beat Tyson...lol. Wonder how McCall vs Tyson would have went.
