        Agreed! It was they way he Froze when he got hit hard that ****ed Frank!
        He hit Super hard but id think Tyson hit harder. By the way notice that IF that tournement Happepened that it was in England and the English fighters came out lookin best! Coincedence? I never heard of it tho!

            Because Bruno hit him with jabs most of the time.

                Thats right. The English rigged the scientific testing machine to make our fighters look good.

                Dear me.

                  Frank Bruno, Mike Tyson, Razor Ruddock, George Foreman and Chris Eubank all had their punches measured (for charity I think) in London in April 1991 on a machine similar to the one Ivan Drago used in Rocky IV.

                  Bruno won. All I know is that Bruno's punch was said to be equivalent of being hit by a sledgehammer (!) and that Eubank's was measured at two tonnes (which was considered insane force for a middleweight).
                  Eubank hitting at 2 tonnes of pressure is an absolute joke. Thats means eubank hit at 1680 psi which is 680 psi more than rocky marciano punched at . Eubank was never a massive puncher . Where did you read this crap in that piece of crap newspaper The news of the world.

                    Eubank WAS a massive puncher man, but harder than Marciano? HELL NO!
