    Bruno up against shavers and Snipes of the Holmes kd fight s. How's big Frank do here? Can he avoid the bombs of these two to set up his own? Both dropped Holmes, no easy feat, so does Bruno suffer a ko loss? This is the Bruno of the mccall ft.

    If he gets hit with the shots that badly hurt Holmes, Frank is done. He had little to no recuperative powers.

    His defense wasn't very good, so if prime Holmes could get hit with those shots, it is highly likely Frank would get caught at some point.

    In a prime for prime matchup, it's actually possible he could beat both those guys. If he makes it through the early rounds he could possibly hurt and stop Shavers.

    It's possible he could win a decision over the awkward snipes.

    If I had to bet, though, I would say the Shavers and Snipes who greatly troubled prime Holmes, would beat Frank Bruno.

    Bruno got knocked out by Bonecrusher, he'd get knocked out by Ernie

    He'd lose to one of them. And win one. I tend to think it might be Snipes that gets the W.

    I would bet against Bruno in both fights, but by a wafer thing margin!
