Earnie Shavers vs. Frank Bruno

[holmcall]

Bruno. Both had stamina issues and lacke a back-up plan in the late rounds. But it would have been agreat war. Good question.

[BIG H]

Bruno didn't have a weak chin, he had a weak defence! He should've taken a knee against Witherspoon and Lewis, but just stayed against the ropes getting brutalized.

I agree but a weak defense against a puncher like Shavers spells trouble in my book...

[Master]

Shavers, slightly better stamina.

[Zakman]

Earnie Shavers knocked Bruno out cold, probably around the 8th round.

I'd have to go Shavers. He punched like a mule kicked. He would gas and had a relatively weak chin but his power was unquestioned. Bruno had power also but not like Ernie possessed.

Hey question to whomever may read this: How do the points work on here? I'm new.

You write a good post that a member agree's with or respects and they can give you 'rep'

The more rep the user has, the higher their 'punch power' and the more points they can give to other users as 'rep'.

Hope that helps

Here, have your first lot on me..

And Cummings and Bonecrusher and Tyson, his arms just used to drop down by his side while he took a beating and his brain seemed buzzed out.
Don't recall any of them knocking him down if i remember rightly.
With that in mind he had a great chin

[Howlin Mad Missy]

yep, used to sit there either yelling for him to move or the ref to stop the fight

hahaha same with me and my brother
He just used to get hard lamping then it was as if someone just switched him off and he never used to seem to be able to shake it off and regain his senses.
He'd just stay stunned and wide open for more beating.
