    Just watched Bugner Bruno today, please don't ask me why!

    Despite his age he really had a go at Bruno, he wasn't intimidated or scared to hit back etc etc

    How would you think a prime Bugner would fair against a prime Joshua?

    Crazy I know but I would pick a motivated Bugner to take a points win.

    Also, the way the fight finished should Bruno have been dqd for deliberate hitting on the back of Bugners head, and why did the ref allow him to keep doing it?

    The more I think about it, it was very enjoyable watching it again and it should go down as a complete classic...

    Bruno was a serial rabbit puncher throughout his career.

    He was, but in the Bugner fight I believe he overstepped the mark before the stoppage.
