Wes | Frank Bruno comeback... ? | 04-02-2016 @ 19:34 | |
31.6 and Obese !! Get in.... Member 869, 1355 posts SQ 320, BP 200, DL 310830.0 kgs @ 97.5kgs Eq | Surely not ? This has to be the craziest thing I've heard in a while. Is it the ramblings of a man struggling with his own mental health, or a legitimate dream ? To be fair the guy is still in fantastic shape, but he'd never get a licence surely ? | ||

It would be sad day to witness his comeback, the guy is a national hero. | ||

Walk your talk Member 5, 25555 posts Administrator | He is possibly over his mental health issues and just wants to feel normal again rather than still be in its grip and deluded .....either way , if he does box it obviously will be some non-BBBC affair | ||

Mask it or Casket !! Member 4600, 8166 posts SQ 240, BP 162.5, DL 255657.5 kgs @ 90.5kgs UnEq | His issue or our issue??? The man loves to box...might be the focus he needs to keep his mind healthy | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5206 posts | He has too many issues. No committee will sanction him a licence. I met Bruno. He is a lovely guy, but he will get seriously hurt. He might look good and train well in the gym, but he is too old to be fight fit. Foreman made a comeback, but he still had all his sense, plus lets face it, Bruno is nowhere near Foreman's level. | ||

Member 4831, 111 posts SQ 175, BP 130, DL 202.5507.5 kgs @ 87kgs UnEq | Wasn't he told by doctors that he could never box again due to an eye injury? If so ,surely that's still the case | ||

Man up and have a fuckin coffee Member 2086, 9717 posts SQ 340, BP 252.5, DL 300892.5 kgs @ 158kgs UnEq | I looked after him 3 weeks ago in Coventry at a BBAD bareknuckle show and its fair to say he is suffering a little. Lovely bloke but I dont believe he is 100% well. | ||

Lovely bloke but I dont believe he is 100% well. As you well know, you don't play boxing. This isn't someone looking to make a comeback in golf or snooker, boxing can be very dangerous. Bruno looks good on the outside, but he is in no mental state to be taking punches from prime heavyweights. Hopefully no country will licence him. Big Frank was an excellent fighter in a competitive era, and one of Britains best loved sporting stars. Hopefully this comes to nothing. | ||

Watching him on the pads was awful, as if he is missing some cognitive function. His golden moment left hooking a ferocious Mike Tyson will never be forgotten, he needs to be told to do something else, Poor chap. Legend. | ||

Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts | ursus said:I looked after him 3 weeks ago in Coventry at a BBAD bareknuckle show and its fair to say he is suffering a little. Lovely bloke but I dont believe he is 100% well. Was he actually fighting? Agree that he shouldn't be in the ring - my concern is that he will find some other venue. As to how true the stories were I don't know but if he was sleeping in the ring as the only place he felt safe then this may well be.linked to that. | ||

Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22018 posts | I don't like boxing (too macho for me), but I've always found him to be a likeable TV personality. I wish him well. I have a photo of me standing next to a waxwork of him, and he's rather big. | ||

Member 5205, 118 posts SQ 130, BP 115, DL 200445.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | Frank's obviously ill. He's deluded and paranoid by what he's said. He will never box again | ||

as crimson as my last victims underclothing..... Member 899, 11324 posts SQ 180, BP 132.5, DL 190502.5 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | I remember reading he was told not to box on risking losing his eyesight. Hope he doesn't come back to it would hate to see anything happen. | ||
