Does the Bruno of Tyson 1 beat the Tyson of Tyson v Bruno 2

Ok. Not on the same level as Tyson. Smith was very limited. He couldn't stop Marvis Frazier.

 

Smith was not a good boxer, very limited like you said. But in terms of punching power, he can bang extremly hard. Jose ribalta who fought tyson said Smith was the hardest puncher he fought, Even Frankie who fought twice tyson, Oliver McCall and Lennox Lewis, said it was Smith Who hit him the hardest

 

No. The Frank Bruno from the first Tyson fight was not agressive enough to make an impact in the fight. The version of bruno that has the best chance against this version of tyson is the Bruno that fought Lennox Lewis. Still dont think he wins tho.

 

Buster Douglas had a far worse chin than Bruno and Douglas still beat the tar out of Mike Tyson. There are a few reasons Bruno lost to Tyson both time. He fought afraid. He failed for that mystical Tyson "aura". If Bruno fought like he knew he could win he would of did better than he did. Would beat Mike? Who knows but he would of done better.

 

Bruno can't beat Tyson

He can't handle Tyson's aggression

 

Post prison Tyson was not the same beast he was when he was trained by Rooney in the 80s, and his defensive skills had declined a lot.
But IMO he was still good enough in terms of offense to beat any version of Bruno.

 

Tyson was better in the second fight

 

God, What is with the love of Bruno I don’t understand. He was slow he had a shallow gas tank and he beat weak comp he also lost to some very weak comp. He gave Lennox a bit of a lesson and rocked Tyson and lost brutally to both.

He won the title from Oliver and held claim to a piece of the crown no one can take that from him. he is better then most and held a level of fame we will probably never know but we cannot forget many men achieved much more then Frank and a lot of them have gone forgotten.

 

No, no version of Bruno ever beats any decent versions of Tyson.

 

Agreed, the earliest version of Tyson even the best Bruno has a fair chance against, is '98 Tyson.

 

I'll go with that Swag.
