Frank Bruno vs Floyd Patterson

As leggy Mountbatten once said “it was mostly the trousers”.

 

No doubt at all, but Patterson is much more proven, and that should be factored in.

 

I don't think it's fair to assume Floyd stops him early. I think Patterson manages to get under Bruno's jab enough to start working his body and breaking him down. He'll probably get hurt doing this at some point and Bruno will probably has out.

I think any time after seven is fair game IMO.

 

Floyd never folded easily. He always tried to get up, and I can't see Bruno lasting long after trying so hard to stop him.

 

I totally agree with you my friend, Floyd was fit and always in shape, the so called cruiserweight beat the likes of heavy hitters like George Chuvalo and Oscar Bonavena, It is is the fight in the dog what matters, not the flab. It is the younger generation that like Goliaths, if I wanted to see oversized monsters I could go to the nearest theaters, This Forum is Classic not General Forum. But to each their own.

 

If Bruno lands one on Floyd, on the way to the canvas Floyd’s probably thinking damn I should of listened to Cus. Guys got some skill and power so let’s stay away from him. Either that or after landing a lightening fast 5-6 punch combination and **** all happens he thinks exactly the same thing.

 

I think you're confusing Frank Bruno with someone else. George Foreman perhaps ?
