      Bruno was the master at holding and hitting. And wasn't bad with the rabbit punches either. He's got to be one of the top 10 Greatest Heavyweights ever.

        I personally think he is the best P4P ever
        What! You must be joking a heavyweight as the best p4p - least of all Frank Bruno.

        He's got to be one of the top 10 Greatest Heavyweights ever
        I hope your joking, how many heavies have you heard of. And what has he done to deserve to called a top 10 great?

          On a serious note. Bonecrusher Smith was the only one to knock him out cleanly i think. In the 10th round before they peaked.

          Anyone know what that was like? Or saw this fight?

            Deadly serious.

            Frank was not only the hardest hitting, but also the quickest moving heavywight of all time. With the best chin. He had Tyson beaten in both the fights, before he was caught with a lucky swing in the dark.

            My top 5 ever P4P:

            1. Frank Bruno
            2. Butterbean
            3. Rocky Balboa
            4. Gary Mason
            5. Muhammed Ali

              I would rank Rocky Balboa higher than Butterbean, but that's just me.

                Gary Mason had less defeats than Ali, so I agree with that rating.
