Joshua v Bruno

I apologise if this has been done before but who would win a fight between these two.For me its 50/50 how do you see it?

 

Joshua by KO eventually. Maybe a scary moment or two along the way

 

Seems to be a more even matchup as Joshua's career moves along.

24-2 now.

 

Bruno.

For all franks faults he always got stuck in, he would beat AJ to the jab, and his was a good heavy one at that, then the first heavy blow he lands it is over.

The more i think of it, every punch would ruin Josh one way or the other, body shots would have him ready for the heavy rights and hooks.

Yup Bruno by stoppage.

 

As in a boxing match or a bodybuilding contest?

 

Interesting question TS. On the face of it, it feels "well, Joshua duh" but the more i think about it the more i realise its actually a more intricate fight than you'd think. As someone said above, Bruno did indeed get stuck in and he was heavy handed across his entire arsenal.

I've had a long day so can't really formulate a detailed response but I'm interested to see how others weigh in on this.

 

Bruno would beat him like a bodybuilder step child.

 

I think it really comes down to who gets tagged hard first.

50/50 IMO

 

Battle of the bodybuilders! I’m leaning towards AJ but who knows. A fight that would make me embarrassed to ever take my shirt off for sure. Two jacked guys

 

We are also evaluating this question immediately after a Joshua loss to Usyk which may be causing some bias. I understand some arguments for Bruno to win this however I would disagree that he would come out on top more often than Joshua.

 

Oh come on fella, keep it real mate.

Bruno actually fought his way through, took a lot of knocks along the way but kept on going and succeeded, and fought a lot of very hard men.

Can you imagine Joshua still standing and fighting back against Tyson the way Frank did before Steele jumped in, he would have been out cold my friend...

 

No way would Bruno last 12 against Saturday's Usyk. He'd be lit up like a Christmas tree and out of there within 6 rounds tops.

 

I don't know, Bruno could bang, had a very good jab, AJ more mobile and quicker hands.. and Bruno has the better chin.

Both have stamina issues, it's a battle between two second tier Heavyweights.

I say "second tier" because neither were/are the best in their division/era.




And before AJ fans start going off.. Go and watch Bruno Vs Lewis before you write off Bruno.

 

The Bruno of that night against LL would have given him a serious lesson in how to fight...

 

Absolutely agree Mr C
