70s George Foreman vs Frank Bruno & Razor Ruddock

Well Foreman first fight as a pro he was 218. Only 2 pounds lighter than Wlad was. Still much heavier than Razor Ruddock. But as a 19 year old amateur he was always between 226 and 229. So basically 230. Most fighters during that era would try to come in as light as possible. Now you see guys either come in out of shape or they take PED's to bulk up.

I agree with Frank Bruno. He didn't have a killer instinct. Again Tyson he would of did a lot better if he just fought like a warrior. He hurt Tyson with one punch in the first round right? Yet he still fought afraid.

Razor Ruddock is a odd case. He was stopped earlier on in his career by David Jaco of all people. This is before he bulked up ( I am assuming he juiced). Tommy Morrison and Lennox Lewis as able to stop him. Yet he was able to stand toe to toe with Tyson.

Since Bruno didn't have that killer instinct I couldn't see him dropping Foreman like Lyle did. I see Foreman just doing to Frank what Tyson did. I don't see Foreman stopping Razor as quick as Lewis did ( I think the Tyson's fights ruined Ruddock and he wasn't nearly as durable by the time Lewis stopped him). But I do see Foreman stopping Razor in the by the 5th.
