    A "prime" Frank Bruno vs. the Frazier of the 2nd Foreman fight
     
  2. Frazier gets to him eventually.

    Frazier was still good enough to beat Bruno

    a prime Frazier works him over
     
  4. word. Bruno was too slow and robotic to deliver his very hard punches effectively enough on Frazier's bobbing weaving style.

    Prime Frazier stays low and explodes a few left hooks on that noggin. It'll be all over within 7 rounds.

    Now..If Bruno fights dirty as he was prone too and holds and hits and rabbit punches constantly...it may be a more difficult and frustrating night for Frazier.

    Different class of fighters, even at the late stage of Frazier's career. Joe beats the snot out of Frank.

    Seriously, I think Bruno gets beat down even worse if he tries to play dirty... Frazier was not shy about rough fights

    I can't remember off-hand who said it, but I was watching a Frazier fight (around 1968-70) & someone offering analysis to the colour commentary said of Frazier, "He needs a third glove --- one for his head."

    :lol:
