I sort of like Bruno too. Hope he's gotten his life together.
Bruno wasn't just chinny, but he didn't know when to take a knee. He'd get hurt from the shots, and would be basically out on his feet, but never took a knee when he should have.Comment

Lots of fighters are like that, it's actually kind of ****** when you think about it. I guess its just that fighting heart thing. I always saw taking a knee as quite a good tactic to get out of trouble (for them, not me, I don't box) but then again do it too much and you lose on points anyway. I kind of admired Gary Lockett in the Pavlik fight, he was geting beaten up but always kept his head, took a knee when he had to, got up and tried hard to do the right things.Comment

ironically enough Dirrell has admitted to being hurt in one of his fights and said he was fighting through a fog
Andre ward was decked by Kenny Kost and apparently he was down against another fighter on his way up
Berto was rocked by Rivera & Estrada
Dawson was down against Adamek & Harding ,hurt by Glen Johnson
the Americans have no room to talk IMO with their current crop of talent as far as punch resistence goesComment
