    Foreman would stop him somewhere around the 5th or 6th.

    Foreman by ko in either 1 or 2. Bruno would have been a classic Foreman victim.

    Bruno would have never lasted that long.

    Bruno was not the type to stand up to guys like Big George Foreman. George would blow him out, early.

    Foreman would still beat him but it would be mid to late rounds

    Bruno boxes well for about a round and a half. Foreman stops him somewhere from round 2-6.

    Are you saying he had a good chin because he was usually stopped on his feet instead of on the canvas?

    His chin was better than some people think but a good chin isn't everything when it comes to not getting stopped (especially vs. a guy like Foreman). Bert Cooper's chins wasn't that bad either but he was stopped plenty of times.

    I could see Bruno making it to about the 6th round at his very best.

    His was very strong, he had heart but he was scared vs. Tyson in their rematch for whatever reason. He gave Bonecrusher Smith, Witherspoon, and Lewis good fights before being stopped. He did fair in his first fight vs. Tyson... better than most did in those days.

    Similar fight to Lewis-Bruno '93, but probably ending sooner.

    Foreman TKO5 Bruno.

    I think George Foreman would knock him out inside of a few rounds.
