Lennox Lewis vs. Frank Bruno | Full Fight HD 

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

One punch, in boxing, & everything changes radically - elementary brother

@@RingJando Bruno could never capitalise when he'd hurt his opposition, as you say, one punch, roles reversed. At least he did win the much coveted WBC, genuine title against McCall. He did manage to stay away just enough at the end of that bout.

I agree with the previous poster, above me. Bruno had trouble finishing the really good boxers off. There’s no doubt that he was winning the fight on points up to then. The finish was dramatic; Bruno had rocked Lewis (not for the first time) and rushed in for the kill but left himself open. Lewis caught him with a thunderous left cross and Bruno had nothing left after that, he was dazed. In all the hype and verbal sparring before the fight, I often wonder if Lewis had underestimated Bruno. On the night he was giving him all sorts of trouble and rocked him a few times. But Lewis was mobile, quick to recover from a heavy shot, had the technical nous and got himself out of jail. Tough luck on Bruno, but just as with Bonecrusher and Witherspoon, he couldn’t finish Lewis off.

By round 4 Bruno was missing with so many punches it was unreal, Lewis' head movement was insane. Jabs that Bruno were landing were overstretched taps, Lewis jabs were snapping Bruno's head back every time. Haters don't see this though

@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV He wasn't missing lots, you are exaggerating. Lewis' head movement was insane, you say - he was getting tagged often enough, not least with jabs. Whenever Lewis wasn't backing off and was hitting Bruno, Bruno was hitting back cleanly with solid jabs. Lewis did indeed land some good jabs, but he wasn't throwing often enough to be winning the fight.

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.

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.

I remember you mayn wow so good u watching glad u well. Keep it up champ 💪👀

Lennox Lewis was the best technical boxer ever,and I have to give you that what you have said,no one could ever match Lewis

@@rambo235 we obviously didn't watch the same fight ..... you didn't even read the top comment correctly

Total nonsense. Bruno never landed a meaningful punch. He was just peppering him. Bruno lacked killer instinct and Lewis was just waiting on his opportunity

​@rambo235 Lewis never fought anyone and the big names he fought they were washed up fighters

@@sagelight7777 14:38; Never landed a meaningful punch ??

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

A nanny goat 😂😂😂😂

Same. I was there and was nearly falling asleep when they came out. 🙂

Yes, I was there - also had the privilege of seeing Joe Calzaghe's first professional fight on that night.

Lewis was a bag of dirty tricks

@@joaogrande8846 I know. He ain't 💩

Well said my friend Lennox Lewis schooled everyone in front of him,even his 2 losses he came back to defeat them

Indeed he did,, could well be the best heavyweight of all time!🥊🥊

​@stuartrhodes7352 that's a lie

lol you must be joking@@stuartrhodes7352

Frank Bruno was winning the fight

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?

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

All be it only for three months but still he did win the title

@@nicholaskozanas329 yes, and deserved it also 👍

Juan

garbage .

Not really

Frank did that in every fight & got away with it. Not this time.

Lol. Holyfield would have put Bruno on his arse in round one.

No chance. Bruno was a strong fighter​@@paulgraham6316

@@paulgraham6316 I doubt it would have been in round one - it took Lewis until the seventh. Holyfield would certainly have outboxed him and stopped him at some point, probably in the middle rounds.

true :)

Haha well put. Ten out of 10 👏

@igor putin Go back to School and learn some English Noddy.

Bruno was good for sure, but he lacked stamina too I’m afraid…

@@Arianrhod6 Yeah, he tired fast.

No, what he needed was a better jab, not a better chin.

Lewis is British

Yy,,. ...... ,

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.

Soon as he went to kronk he started getting bigger

Roids.

Lawless and Bruno split years before this ye part time glancer- thats George Francis- try harder!🤣😆🤭

A killer instinct of a dead prawn?!?? He had 38 KOs in his 40 wins so I'd disagree!

how old are you bruno hammered people ..... 38ko's

@@pauloliver1842 He 'hammered' journeymen has-beens and no-marks, yet when it came to fighting quality opponents he was hopelessly outclassed. Apart from a tragic Oliver McCall, a punch-drunk James Tillis and a washed-out Carl Williams, whom did he KO?

When boxers gesture to their opponent about not being hurt it is invariably a sign of weakness , an acknowledgement of getting the worst of it.

@paul oliver Yeah but pretty much all of them were even more hopeless than Bruno.

Nationality is just a paperwork exercise. He was who he was.

@@justbreakingballs Exactly - boxing is an individual sport anyway.
