Riddick Bowe would stop Bruno very early. Bowe is a superior version of Frank. (When in shape) I can't see Bruno lasting long against a prime Bowe. Bruno tends to fight out of a shell when he step's up his comp. I can't see Bowe getting knocked out, which would be Frank's only chance. but who know's IMO, If the fight had been made I would back Bowe 100%
I think this would be similar to Bruno against Lewis - Bruno does well with his jab and the solid power early on, but then Bowe catches Frank and he does his well practised impression of a zombie. I think Bowe does it quicker than Lewis - he was more aggressive fighter and less cautious than Lennox.
Bowe TKO in 8. Interesting fight though Russell. I don't think Bruno had the smarts to beat a good Riddick Bowe though, and Bowe's right hand will have Bruno in trouble a few times prior to the stoppage. I'm sure Bruno would be game all the way through though, and land a couple of heavy rights himself.
I think Bruno would have some sucess in the first few rounds with his jab. But Bowe was on another level. I see Bruno getting stopped on his feet in about 5-6 rounds.
Bowe would probably wear down Frank mid rounds but Bruno has a real puncher's chance in this one. With hindsight we saw that Bowe could be hurt and was wide open to right hands. Bruno is a booming puncher with the right hand... Could be interesting.
Bowe takes this by late round stoppage he was superior to Bruno in every department except power,and hit hard enough to wobble Frank for a referees intervention.
