    1989 Frank Bruno vs current top 5 HWs

    Just got done watching Tyson vs Bruno and some of Bruno's other fights. The guy was a monster and reminds me of Joshua a little. How would he do against the cream of the crop in this era?

    Wilder, Frank was too musclebound and similar to David price has that fear of fighting so the first heavy punch from wilder would of crumbled him mentally and physically

      Wilder ko's him late. Bruno had stamina issues and wilder is a deadly puncher with a good chin and stamina

          He did I agree, but alot of wilders opponents including Ortiz had a good chin but his power is the type that can put most if not all men down. That's his greatest asset and also weakness as he often overextends and puts himself out of position for a sec. But Bruno was nothing special us brits liked his personality and admired his story still do but boxing wise he would be outgunned by a lot of heavies today I believe

              Prime frank would be a contender. Just like how he was back in the day.

              I think he comes up short vs wilder n Joshua
