Re: Frank Bruno

I can see why he would want to make a comeback, since he has been, shall we say, rather careless with his money. He must have got through a fortune.
Nevertheless it would be very unwise to say the least were he to return to the ring, especially in view of his age.

Re: Frank Bruno

He's had his day, time to keep his gloves in the locker instead of asking for trouble, stay out Frank while you're all in one piece.

Re: Frank Bruno

I doubt very much whether he will box again.
He was very lucky to get so many world title chances.
Perfect body with a ram rod jab, but being so heavily muscled meant he lacked stamina in the later rounds.
Also didn't have the survival instinct to either grab hold of his opponent or go down for a count instead of being punched senseless.
The article also says that he wont be given a licence.
He is applauded by boxing fans wherever he goes.

Re: Frank Bruno

It's a shame he hadn't got the killer instinct, if he had he'd have probably beat Tyson in his second fight.

I hope he doesn't fight, I hate to see boxers humiliated, eg Ali v Holmes, but then again some have been successful(Foreman)

Re: Frank Bruno

It's not even a sensible time to get back into the ring. The British heavyweight scene has never been healthier - Fury, Joshua, Haye would all destroy Frank with ease. I think he would struggle against Chisora, Whyte, and Price let alone the top three.
