I once heard Frank Bruno say that he was aware of his limitations as a boxer. He said he knew he didn't have the natural ability of Ali, Sugar Ray etc. He said he thought that what he lacked in talent, he could make up for with hard work.
His trainers would seem to back this up. I heard his trainer say that, boxers are often lazy and need to be pushed. Bruno was the opposite. He needed to ne stopped from overtraining. He worked hard for everything he achieved. I have nothing but respect for him.
That's why England looks at him as the hero. England loves Frank because of that very reason. Very humble guy. Even to this day Frank still gets the accolades while Lennox doesn't. Fortunately Lennox understands that now and sees why. After boxing Lennox has been very low key. Bruno came pretty close to winning this fight but Lennox survived and the rest is history
Lenox is a fighter and dangerous too
Nice

It was a grudge match up, but Bruno, as limited as he was - but the people's favourite- did well against, let's face it, one of the greatest heavyweights of all time & certainly the best of his era.
Once Lewis caught him at the end, Bruno was helpless.
But until that point, he fought a brilliant fight.
Came very close to knocking Lewis out, only for it to slip away...
Bruno was one gear short from an amazing fighter. Still much loved thou in Britain!
O homem dos ternos.
@@marcosdesouzadias1658 is that 2 suits or suit man? My portugise is not that great!
Tbh, the fighters who beat Bruno were pretty decent.
Every fight fan hates Lewis because at some point he beat their fave fighter, Bruno was my fave fighter... but History will have Lewis going down as the GOAT.
Bruno was very powerful. Lewis at that point had not learnned keep opponents at bay with his jb and later he was bigger and more powerful.
love the two boxers both brill
Lewis had an uncanny ability to pace Himself patiently letting the opponent get overconfident-then knew when his opponent was vulnerable. At that point -Turn up attack. Bruno fought valiantly but was wearing down by the 6th/7th
That 30.06 messed Frank Bruno and loose his focus and Lewis very well respond with immediate left hook
Never follow !"
A Puncher !
If you don't Have,
An Educated Jab !
Also the ref tried
To give Bruno a rest
Bruno could have sent Lewis back to Canada!
Lewis is British
Lewis training was
Bruno went by power and weight more than tactic why what he failed at. Trying to make an opening instead of finding. Made him not go a full distance besides mcall.
lewiscalfslookedlikechiseledblades
I will say lewis became a great champion.
Lennox Lewis won here, but this Frank Bruno is no weakling. I say that ,Frank Bruno 👍!!!
Nice, that left hook completely took out Bruno.
Dont forget Bruno was the first to hurt Tyson in a fight. He clipped Mike early and wobbled him. Mike recovered and went to work. Tyson never gets enough credit for always fighting giant opponents. Taller, longer, and bigger heavyweights. Respect to all of these warriors.
Tucker was first to rock Tyson but you are right
@DaDominicanDawg I just watched it again. Brunos was better but I will concede. Tucker was the first to catch Tyson clean.
@@patrickflug4605 agreed 💯
Tyson whooped him twice. Lewis avoided Tyson during that time for a reason. Tyson is like a pit bull versus a bunch of great Danes. He proved you could be under 6 feet tall and still dominate really tall giants.
@@patrickflug4605 and we go back to this, i actually correct myself, the first to shake up Tyson was no other than Bonecrusher Smith, watch that last round, he had Tyson dancing a bit
30:05 Tremendous left hook from Lewis.
Бруно был лучше в этом бою, так конечно очень некорректно говорить он же проиграл, но до того момента, как он пропустил удар смотрелся лучше чем его соперник, Lewis похитрее конечно
One of the biggest myths in boxing was that Bruno had a suspect chin. It`s actually the exact opposite. There are perhaps
only 3-4 fighters that have ever lived who could have taken that left hook from Lennox and stayed on their feet. Lennox is
a truly devastating puncher, but even he couldn`t put Frank on the canvass.
Bruno's chin was better than what a lot have said. However, every big shot seemed to daze him to the point he couldn't think straight. In this fight and many others, he'd have been in a far better position if he'd have taken a count. It'd have given him an extra 15-20 seconds that was sorely needed.
Dubois reminds me a little of Bruno. Slightly stiff, orthodox european style heavyweight with a good jab and a big right cross. Bruno was the better boxer BUT I have to say I was impressed by Dubois' decision making in a crisis against Kevin Lerena. He repeatedly took counts to give himself more time for recovery. Being rational in a ring is a good sign and sometimes Bruno lacked this.
@@Jimbo8012 With respect Alex, you seem to be taking something of a liberty with the word "daze". Some of the punches
that, as you say..."Dazed" Bruno, would have flattened countless other heavyweights. The point I was making is that
Bruno was able to take punches that would have finished most boxers. Tim Witherspoon himself said he could have
seen off 3-4 fighters with the blows he landed on Frank. But Frank just kept on fighting. To say "every big shot seemed
to daze him to the point he couldn`t think straight" is meaningless. That applies to EVERY fighter; Hence the phrase;" Big
shot". That is why it`s a "big shot"..........it caused an effect.
Only 3 or 4 fighters who ever lived could take that left hook? That’s a ludicrous statement. Ali, Holyfield, Foreman, Liston, Jeffries, Chuvalo, Klitschko V, Bowe, Holmes - all of those guys would have taken that shot and dealt with it better than Bruno and many of them come back to win the fight…
They both had rabbit punching sessions in there
Yeah I don't think Bruno had a problem with eating big shots. I just wonder: Isn't there a situation where it's best to actually fall and take a count, potentially recover a little bit, instead of keeping up and just waiting for the KO?
Had to have True Brit on front of shorts to have psychological impact
I think Tyson vs Bruno fights were more ferocious than this.Tyson hit Bruno very fastly and powerfully like a Rhino.
Congratulations Lennox
The real shame for Frank Bruno was that you only needed to get one decent combination against him and the match was over, this happened several times throughout his career when he was on top in fights. If he was better at taking punishment he would have been a real force in boxing
No, what he needed was a better jab, not a better chin.
The only title that truly matters in this life is the one that says "Redeemed" Jesus is Lord!
Lennox finally had enough of Bruno's dirty tactics.
😊😢😢😢😊❤😂😂😊
Bu😅😊 yg

Micky Vann dont take no shit.💪
BRUNO was actually physically stronger than LEWIS , LEWIS just over came BRUNO's power & eventually won the fight with better stamina
big joke.Lewis is stronger
@@babym.j8527 even OLIVER McCALL said the most physically strongest Man he ever fought was FRANK BRUNO, & he fought both LEWIS & BRUNO ............ You can see how LEWIS was the one backing up, & on the inside it was clearly BRUNO backing up LEWIS throughout the fight . LEWIS was just faster with better stamina , but if both men go to a weight room, and have a BENCH PRESS contest, i ganrantee you BRUNO would win
@@entertainingsportshighligh7525 But weight canot win boxing.If that is the case how Bruno was KO by Mike Tyson twice.Bruno is not a match for Lewis and Tyson.Both are stronger and better better boxer than him.During Tyson match Bruno was always hugging him due to fear.
Lennox was naturally larger and stronger than Frank but for this fight trained himself down from 17 1/2 stone to 16 stone 5 for speed in what looked to be an error of judgement as Bruno effectively could push him around and Lennox lost one of his usual tools which is the way he pushed opponents away on the break and/or leaned on them to sap their energy. Hell of a punch though to chicken leg Frank with one punch, it took other fighters entire barrages to get him into that state.
Lennox Lewis got the lucky punch at the end and stopped Frank Bruno other wise Bruno would have beaten him on points.
To me this was a slow and boring boxing match between two gargantuan muscular men with very limited boxing abilities. Somehow Lennox Lewis went onto developing a $150,000,000 amassed fortune. The match not at all entertaining; neither one reminds me of Ali?
Lennox lewis l ho sempre visto cm marc marquez ke seguiva le orme di valentino rossi ...beh!! Lewis ha seguito le orme di tyson ...ma rikordiamoci ke lewis nn ha combattuto cn mike tyson , prima ke lo spedissero in galera ingiustamente xké sapeva ke nn sarebbe durato 3 round ...una volta ke mike fu tolto dal ring divenne campione , affrontando avversari ke mike aveva giá steso quando erano in piena forma ...lewis era un pugile costruito nn era genuino , tra l altro molto invidioso ...sa benissimo ke cn il vero iron mike nn avrebbe avuto alkuna possibilitá, forse 1 miracolo se avrebbe retto 3 round...
30:25 What was the referee doing here? Why pull Lewis away from Bruno? That made no sense at all.
Frank be like: Ok, let's jab all night long. 😅
Bruno's corner told him to use his right more and that when Lewis was able to get to bruno and win the fight. Bad advice from the corner man Terry lawless at the end of the 6th round
Lawless and Bruno split years before this ye part time glancer- thats George Francis- try harder!🤣😆🤭
if only bruno learnt to throw the right hand
The ref was correct .
Lewis training was awful.
1 el referí dejó pegar por lo menos 5 o6 golpes de más a un hombre ya noqueado 2 bruno estaba bien, pero no de cuidó del contragolpe y la esquina de Bruno muy mal porque no cuidaron a su boxeador cuando estaba noqueado y no tiraron la toalla 😡
B.
İn this particular fight Bruno was fighting dirty, he was hitting back of Lewis' head at least in 3 different times and each time several times repeated purposely.
Thank God he was battered good.
I have no respect for Bruno.
That's what Frank did in every fight.
Just like Holyfield. Lewis also fought Tyson .when he was washed up.
Bruno was pathetic.🤣🤣 with his goofy punches
Could u do any better agenst lennox lewis
I agree, he was a terrible fighter. He didn't throw a left hook or an uppercut and he never switched to a southpaw stance during a fight as a defensive tactic. He was just a big strong guy.
Muscle won't give you the win. No no no. In boxing, no
Bruno wasted his chances to won that fight. Lenox Lewis was a very weak opponent at that time
Lewis was heavyweight champion at that time. Lewis absorbed everything Bruno threw and then knocked him out, while having a fairly off day up to that point. The mark of a champion is finding a way to win even when it’s not going well, which he did.
Bruno doesn't have power puch.
Bruno landed accurate right hand on Lennox head many times in every round.
But he was unable to knock Lennox down
When he's fit Lennox has a hell of a chin. The first fighter since Marciano in the HW division to beat everyone he fought speaks to that factor.
@@darthwiizius Lewis has never had a chin but good fundamentals. He is not known for a chin.....
@@lewislouis6246
You're on drugs mate, sure a couple of fighters had better chins like Mike Tyson for example but you don't dominate the HW division for a decade without a great chin, you end up as Michael Grant instead.
@@darthwiiziusLewis has a fragile chin. Michael Grant has A glass chin. Lewis has a fragile one.....no historian would ever disagree that Lewis has a fragile chin. Lewis, A solid chin? Thats a joke. And Lewis had his success with fundamentals. Leaning on smaller opponents or keeping you at range such and such. Jab one 2 rinse repeat. Not a chin. Lewis has a fragile chin and shaky stamina.....
@@lewislouis6246
Lewis went down twice in his entire career you fool, he went in with everyone who didn't run (Ridiculous Bowe cough) and only went down twice in a time span going back deep into his amateur days (where he also won everything including the Olympics), think through what you're saying sonny. Lewis had an inherent weakness to the opponent's left hook, ie a blindside punch, where he had a tendency to drop his right every time he threw the jab and that's all and other than that he took shots from the best of them and won and was only ever wobbled in one other fight outside of the 2 losses. Lewis' chin was solid, the end as his record, which is the most complete in HW history BTW having cleaned out 2 generations of fighters, is testament to. I watched all his fights live BTW.
BRUNO GOT BEATEN BYBTHEM BEST BOXER ....EVER LENNOX- THE LION- LEWIS ....SIMPLE REALLY !💖🇬🇬🇬🇧🥳🥳🥳
Bruno had a million chances to win the fight. Lewis didn’t play well. He was just lucky to get a knockout in the end.
impressionante como o Lewis leva uma surra em 6 rounds e no 7 round ganha o combate..nessas altura o treinador tem de servir pra alguma coisa..o bruno a ganhar 6 round a 0 o treinador tinha que dizer ao bruno pra ir mais devagar e indo deixando passar os round ate pk o bruno tinha esse combate ganho
the most boring fight in heavy weight history by far.
Nah that’s fury vs Klitschko
@@somedude3977 lol, i forgot about that one bro, lol
@@darrellfort1668 yea that’s gotta be the worst one
@@somedude3977 LMBO
Fury vs wK worst in history. Wk totally washed up and fury no bottle to throw more than 3 shots around
Poor Bruno has never been a good boxer and that's why he is not well now!
He was a good boxer he just didn’t have the killer instinct
In Box History big loser f.bruno 2 class the real Champs Mike Tyson Lennox Lewis evander hollyfield Mohammed Ali 🐯☀️🌟✨👍
Frank bruno is a legend in his own right!
stupid referee was trying his very best to save bruno but to no avail!
برونو ملاكم فاشل كان بأمكانه الفوز
Luta muito feia
Cudan sudac ne broji nogdau
thebodyconstructshadlewisshootingthosecoolshotswhichbrunocouldnot
لو كان تايسون موجود لفاز عليهم واحد تلو الاخر وبنفس هذا اليوم
What a fight..... This guys can go 20 rounds🤣🤣🤣
الملاكم لينوكس لويس ينازل بالطريقة النسوية لكنه فعال .ليس فى طريقته رجولة واضحة مثل بعض الملاكمين على غرار تايسون او هوليفيلد
Thought umpire should have postponed the days play earlier
رأيت عدة صراعات للينونكس لويس و لقد اعجبتنى الطريقة الذكية جدا جدا التى يستعملها فى مواجهة خصومه .الطريقة التى انتصر بها حتى اصبح بطلا للعالم و هي ملاكمة الخصم بالجانب مع إستعمال اليد اليسرى بطريقة سريعة للتضليل و ضعها محاجز امام اعين الخصم ثم الضرب بقوة لما تتاح له الفرصة و كذلك يدرس طريقة الخصم و هو بعيد عن الخطر و كذلك يربح النقاط فى كل مرة مما يضعف الخصم بسيكولوجيا و يحافظ على برودة الاعصاب و يضرب بقوة اثناء ملاحظة العياء لدى الخصم .ضف الى ذلك أنه قوى بسيكولوجيا امام كل الخصوم .لا أحد وجد حلا لهذه الطريقة الخاصة به منذ بداية رياضة الملاكمة.
Mmm Bruno was badly beaten.
Lewis is legend
Lewis is probably amongst the most overrated boxers imo.
Great fighter, but to call him the greatest heavyweight is ridiculous.
Ali, Liston, Frazier, Marciano, Louis, Holmes all would have crushed him
You watch Bruno's face after being punched with a solid punch it's written "good night!"
Frank Brunno has a soft glass jaw one good solid punch he's already sleeping. .all his defeats comes from his soft glass jaw
I love frank Bruno . As a kid he was my hero .
Any one who thinks Lennox could have beaten Tyson in that era is a fool.
If tyson had fought lewis this period, he would have ended lewis's boxing career. Tyson is the king at ending fights once he has seen there is a loophole.
What a brilliant jab big Frank had, he was winning that fight until the last round
Frank weighed in at this fight 238 lbs. Lennox weighed in at 235 lbs. Frank was doing great. I just feel Frank could of done with being 230 lbs instead of 238 lbs. Because that would of helped his fitness better in the middle rounds. I felt Frank was on the heavy side. His punches would of been better and his movement also. Very bad luck Frank. I so wanted Frank to beat Lennox.
Frank you blew 4 world title fights 2xTyson..1xweatherspoon ..1xlewis...you weren't good enough
Frank Bruno won 40 out of 45 fights, with 38 knockouts. He won the WBC heavyweight championship of the world. Have you ever been in the ring Brian? What an absolute joker.
Bruno adopted the wrong plan, Bruno should of stepped up the gear and apply pressure constantly and not give Lewis any rest for 6 rounds And Bruno would win
this might be childish but... 9:02 (edit) put that with 11:22...
I heard Tyson and Lennox talking about Frank. Both of them said that it is laughable to say he had a glass chin. Mike said, "I hit him with everything I had and he didn't go down."
Lennox was similarly complimentary
Yes Frank didn't go down, but once caught he became Helpless and disorientated, and couldn't cover up, but defo no glass chin tho
Absolutely - look at the number of punches James Bonecrusher Smith had to hit him with before he went down. Frank's problem was he seemed to suffer from brain freeze when he took a good shot on the chin.
@@paulwilliams8389, because he didn't have a good chin. Just because he didn't hit the deck, it doesn't change that.
@@chriswilliamson7694 Glass chin is defined as being easily knocked down/out. Bruno was the opposite of that. His biggest deficiency was an absence of strategy. He wore his heart on his sleeve in the ring and it was like wearing a target.
I agree with you. You learn more from a competitor speaking about you or a competitor’s trainer than you do from almost anyone else. Bruno did not have a glass chin. Any fighter can get caught with a lucky punch though, like Lennox - McCall 1.
Lennox is my favorite all time though.
The referee was the hardest man in this fight!!
Thank god Lennox went to America and got trained by Emmanuel Steward.
The ref is shit for allowing all those rabbit punches and for getting in the way right before lennox was letting his hands go.
trainer said'Frank dont make mistakes' but to be fair lennox is one of the greatest i have seen and big Frank was at his best in this fight...on another night he would have won.Bless und love.
Bruno is a good fighter but he does not have finishing and also get tired quick
Bruno could have beaten both champions, looking at his both fights you could see healthwise something was wrong, seems like he had a severe injury especially of his head, you could see that there was something limiting him.
If Bruno was boxing now he’d of won a heavyweight title I don’t think he’d stand much of a chance against the top heavyweights I think Usyke would destroy him If Lewis was in his prime he would destroy all of the current heavyweights Goat he would of made mincemeat out of Usyke and Fury and all the other heavy’s by round six Bruno’s tank was nearly empty
I was never a big fan of Mickey vann the referee for this fight.
lenox lewis is top 5 over-hyped boxers mxm dude has terrible form no defense ,walmart ali
I feel sorry for Bruno.
To me this was a slow and boring boxing match between two gargantuan muscular men with very limited boxing abilities. Somehow Lennox Lewis went onto developing a $150,000,000 amassed fortune. The match not at all entertaining; neither one reminds me of Ali? I watched the entire fight and can honestly say it was the slowest most plodding fight I have ever watched! Can I get a refund?
Stop moaning. We get it.
If Lewis faced the prime Tyson he would not stand a chance
Lewis was born to Jamaican parents - early childhood he grew up in England, and then moved with his mother to Canada. So, tell me what he is, ok?
Nationality is just a paperwork exercise. He was who he was.
@@justbreakingballs Exactly - boxing is an individual sport anyway.
Bruno was good, Lewis was better but gets more credit in the US than UK
Frank didn't know how to end that fight. It's like football. You can play very well for 90 minutes, but if you don't know how to goal, the other oponent will.
Lewis was a bag of dirty tricks
@@joaogrande8846 I know. He ain't 💩
This was a great fight. Bruno fought very well, but lewis was a deadly finisher top 3 of all Time. But True boxing fans wouldnt ridicule big frank , only a handful of elite fighters beat him. Both Lewis and Bruno great ambassadors for the sport.
I was there that night. My dad and I were both there in the audience
I met Mr. Lewis in a hotel elevator in Miami Beach FLA several years ego ; though I was half his size, not boxing knowledgeable , he starter a conversation and was friendly and gentle; he left I a great impression and I have been his fan ever since; this is another great one Champ...
I remember you mayn wow so good u watching glad u well. Keep it up champ 💪👀
Lewis best heavyweight ever imo.... no one he couldn't beat
Well said my friend I totally agree with you greatest boxer on planet earth
@@rambo235 greatest heavyweight boxer ever..... big, fast, accurate, smart.... he lost 1 fight with a lucky punch that he didn't see coming.... as I think about it, that was my opinion 5 years ago for the last 20+ years.... , but Tyson Fury is definitely moving near the top - never seen a guy that big move like that
@@steveb6718 2 fights, cold clocked both times...
Lewis got oneshoted by Nobodys, beat only old ppl out of Prime, got 2 titles free. Lewis was a kek
@@steveb6718you are crazy he never beat anybody in there prime he beat those fighters when they were washed up. And he got knocked out by bums man get out of here with that mess
Top ref.
