Anthony Joshua v Frank Bruno - Who wins

Did you see the right hands Lewis was throwing v Frank? Steward used those wide sloppy rights as the blueprint on how to beat Lewis when he trained McCall before his bout v Lewis, Steward straightened Lewis`s right hand and he started to throw far more 1-2`s than he did v Frank, neither man threw many 1-2`s in that bout, they mainly threw one punch at a time.

 

Ah come on Pity. The best Frank could do, his "Masterclass", ended with him being helped / dragged back to his corner.
I've nothing against Frank and British Boxing owes him a stack for sure. He got Boxing back in the back page headlines and, later, the front too but he really was at his best icing the likes of Bill Sharkey.
Maybe if he'd been managed and matched harder, he could have got Witherspoon early, before Tim settled in and started launching his right over that metronomic jab. Maybe he would have let the right go when he nailed Tyson with that left hook.
Every actual fight Frank was in, other than the many public executions, he lost.
Happy New Year pal.

Bruno had a better chin.

 

Joshua is a little bit better than Bruno. But I wouldn't rule out a Ruiz style upset.

 

And to you mate.

 

Apart from the 41 year old rusty robot who was his best win mate?

 

Frank was more robotic than the 41 year old Wlad and didn`t have a better win on his own resume either, Wlad looked far better v AJ than McCall did v Bruno.

 

Favour joshua. Both dodgy chins in terms of the world stage.

The big difference between them imo is when joshuas hurt...he physically starts to shut down. Whereas Bruno both mentally and physically shut down.

Joshua appears to have his faculties intact whereas bruno,s brain shut down along with his physical attributes. Joshua knew exactly where he was when klitchko was putting it on him...pretty sure he was saying...your in trouble when i recover. Whereas bruno didnt know where he even was when tyson stuck it on him.

I think bruno would maybe get something off on joshua...but more chance of seeing it out than bruno had if the shoe was on the other foot. Both big punchers tbf.
