Frank Bruno wants to comeback at 54 - Worrying TV interview earlier today

If it turned out he did fight again even in a 4-6 rounder against some absolute nobody and happened to lose then what effect would that have on his state of mind?


I mean he's pinned all his hopes of survival on a return to boxing and if he were to be banged out stopped and humiliated what's his next move going to be?


He'd fall deeper into depression than he is now surely.

Maybe, but he has lost before and got on with things. I just presume it's that hole in his life that pushed him over the edge. He's clearly always stayed in shape, but has had no boxing outlet for it and just maybe he enjoys that buzz. A goal is always good just as long as you know the target isn't too extreme. Talk of fighting Joshua is a bit extreme, but just to stay busy it could be good for him.

Does anyone know how Bruno is financially? He hasn't boxed for nigh on 2 decades and I wonder if that could be partly what is driving him. It is extreme to talk of fighting Joshua, but if it is big money he is after maybe that is why he is talking like that? I don't know.
