    I got it on tape from '86 London... Who knows what the scores were, but Tim Spoon was sloppy at 234 soft pounds of flab around the girth, while Franky Bruno was his usual chisled self looking carved from Marble... Still, Bruno never believed in himself and lacked confidence and it showed in all his losses, too...

    If memory serves me right, I think Bruno was doing well in the middle rds while the slobbish Spoon was struggling, but Spoon turned on his reserve gas tank and KTFO of Bruno in round 12 that left Franky hammered to death in a corner in which he needed aide to get back to his stool...

    Spoon's overall showing was ordinary, but his KO of Bruno was wicked...:bbb

    Bill I don't think it was a confidence thing Bruno just short circuited when he was hit really hard.

    Same as WALDO, which is why Bruno V WALDO is a pick em, but the Klit fans like to argue this point.

    I'll give Bruno enough credit to say he never went out from a single blow to the chops.... "Smith, Spoon, Tyson & Lewis" all KO'd Bruno with a volley of punches to Bruno's head and jaw...
