Frank Bruno

The Englishman Frank Bruno won forty of his forty-five matches and in 1995 he became at last world heavyweight champion. He began his professional career in 1980 by beating a string of contestants through knock-out until he was taken down by James “Bonecrusher” Smith. Frank Bruno had numerous opportunities to win the world boxing crown but after starting well, he had series of defeats against Tim Witherspoon, Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis. Bruno was at last crowned champion after winning against Oliver McCall after twelve rounds but he didn’t keep the title for a very long time because he was knocked out by Tyson in three rounds before retiring in 1996.
