    Was Galento a better fighter than Frank Bruno? Could Bruno beat Galento? Galento said that he did best vs taller fighters?

    Galento's left hook may win the day.

    He had a powerful left hook. Let's not delude ourselves, here.

    Yeah, he'd have to land without being KOed

    It landed on Louis, it could land on Bruno. Was Bruno better than Louis?

    Schmeling beat Louis. Louis beat Baer. Baer beat Schmeling. And historians would talk about a 30s Bruno like a world-beater.

    I imagine Galento would win if some mob guys showed up in Bruno's dressing room with guns and told him which round to lose in.

    Only problem there is that ol’ Frank was hardly the sharpest tool in the box and he would probably get the correct round wrong or accidentally KO the on rushing Galento instead.

    Bruno has a chance to win this but Tony was dangerous

    Bruno was awful.
    He'd be dead meat here.
    It would be a crime to feed a lamb like Bruno to a beast like Galento.
