    I an not a contrarian as you put it,just someone who truly believes Bruno would stop AJ. Frank`s punching power is under rated.And if Ruiz can stop him and Usyk having him virtually out on his feet it is a distinct possibility that Frank knocks him out as he is a bigger puncher than either of the afore mentioned fighters

    How is Bruno's stamina better than AJ's ?!?!?!?!
    Bruno gassed out in 4th rounds while AJ kept a steady pace vs Usyk better than any of Usyk's opponents

    AJ is a much better fighter than Bruno, who is only viewed favourably in retrospect. At the time Bruno was seen as a joke fighter in a crap era.

    He is not but he punches harder and is a far better fighter than Ruiz

    Usyk and Ruiz have far quicker hands than Frank had.

    Ruiz is a better combo puncher.

    Bruno isn’t winning just because he hits harder
