Bruno. Bruno had flaws, but had decent boxing skills (a better jab than Lennox Lewis) and serious power. Rahman is just not a good fighter. He has never beaten a single top level fighter who came into the ring in shape and ready to fight. Hard to pick Rahman in a fantasy match against anybody. He would be a slight favorite over Obed Sullivan, and probably a 7-5 underdog against Mike "The Bounty" Hunter.
Both have confidence issues. I think if both were fighting in their pomp, Rahman's ability to jab with Bruno, will mean he can stay in the fight in the early rounds and eventually, like always happened when meeting top notch opposition, Bruno will begin to falter and Rahman should win by late stoppage.
I don't think it's that even. You gotta make Bruno a strong favourite in this fight. In 10 fights I think HR catches Bruno twice.
Here we see the Bruno revisionism in full swing. There is a reason why Hasim Rahman lifted the lineal title, and Bruno only became a beltholder.
IDK. Both of these guys have horrible chins, i'll go with Bruno by middle rd KO. Bruno had a bad chin, but it's granite compared to Rahmans!
Bruno wins the first six rounds, then Rahman knocks him out in the 7th when Bruno hits a wall fatigue wise.
