George Foreman vs. a peak Frank Bruno

George Foreman would knock Frank out.

 

Rock em sock em robots. Basically a battle of attrition. I take the fighter with the better chin and more proven temperament in big fights in Foreman. Not much real analysis to be done otherwise.

 

He did, but I think he'd starch Frank before it came down to that.

 

Only 2 guys went the distance with Bruno, some guy called Phil Jackson and Oliver Mcall, the knocked the rest out

 

Bruno would win the early rounds with the jab before Foreman catches upto him around the 7th or 8th

 

yes it would have been a real war, probably a trilogy like ali- frazier and holyfield-bowe :rofl

 

Bruno doesnt beat any version of Foreman.

 

Bruno wins in style.

 

Bruno has no chance. foreman by ko within 3 rounds. The very best Foreman and Bruno does not get past the initial round. Great fighter vs a contender.

 

Old George would not fight Bruno. Its as simple as that. Why, because old george was a great match maker. Second time around he knew he was giving away age and he was not prepared to give away anything else. If you look at who he picked for himself all he would give away was age, nothing else. Against frank hes giving away age, pace,punch rate and every thing else was equal like size power etc. Its a bad match so he would never take it. Foreman was sucha draw he could have had anyone but avoided Ruddock, lewis, bowe, bruno for a reson.

Young George kills Bruno, unless its the one that fought lyle. Bruno was better than Lyle. The sheer belief undefeated Foreman had in himselfwould have been far too much for Frank who whilst brave was anxious at the best of times times in big fights.

 

what?

 

One thing that might pose a problem for George is Bruno's overhand right, which he was tall enough to loop over Foreman's wide arm defence. Shorter fighters tended to get stymied by that, and lose all their power. Bruno could punch with full force.

I still think Foreman wins, but if anyone could stun and knock him down, Bruno has a very good chance.

 

How did I forget about Mcall ,that was the only fight Bruno got caught with a couple of good ones late and managed to hang on

 

Frank has a little accident in his shorts during the staredown.

 

But seriously, Frank was very intimidated by Tyson.

I think Big George was even more intimidating.

Pre-Rumble George takes this one.

Early.
