Would Miller have done better than Bruno did v Tyson in `89 or `96?

    I feel if Miiller was the same age Bruno was when he fought Tyson in `89 and `96 that he would have lated longer because he has a better chin than Frank did and his better stamina would enable him to get more shots off on Mike,I think he`d push Mike back the way McNeeley did except he`d be tougher to knock down, he would have shown more heart than Bruno did in the second match with Mike and the presser with Mike and Miller would have been awesome. Could Miller last to the mid way point of a bout v a Rooney less Mike?

    We know nothing of Miller’s chin, it could turn out to be as soft as shite. Bruno’s two defeats prior to Tyson were late round stoppages to 2 world heavyweight champions in Smith and Witherspoon when totally gassed. Nothing so far to suggest Miller is anywhere near Bruno’s level

    Miller simply hasn't fought an opponent of any note I don't get this constant Bruno comparison.

    96 Bruno was all at sea versus Tyson .Miller maybe ,perhaps does better there. 89 Bruno put up a decent few rounds ,took a lot of good shots .Not sure about Miller yet lasting 5 against That Tyson !

    Maybe they think they had the same identical physique.
