    Could the more skillful Bruno take this one, or would Shannon weather the storm and take him out late?

    I think Briggs takes him out fairly early. When he connects, Frank goes into his I'm hurt and can't think or do anything mode. And it goes like Bruno's other losses--ref waves it off while Frank is tettering and tottering.

    Bruno seemed to be too tentative and didn't get the most out of his punching power at the very top level. I'd say that Bruno probably cautiously out boxes Briggs to a UD or Briggs stops him late in a come from behind win.
