Frank Bruno Bibliography   

Franklin Roy "Frank" Bruno, MBE was born 16 November 1961 and is a British former professional boxer who fought at heavyweight. His career spanned 14 years, in which time he won the WBC and European heavyweight titles, and faced multiple world champions including Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis. He won the WBC heavyweight title in 1995, defeating Oliver McCall, over 12 rounds, at a packed Wembley Stadium. Bruno was known for his excellent punching power: he won 40 of his 45 bouts and 38 by knockout, giving him a 95% knockout rate from the fights he won; his overall knockout percentage is 84.44%. Like Henry Cooper before him, Bruno has remained a popular celebrity with the British public following his retirement from boxing.

He became a professional boxer in 1982, quickly achieving 21 consecutive wins by knockout. However, in May 1984 the up-and-coming future world heavyweight champion, American James "Bonecrusher" Smith, halted that streak when he defeated Bruno by knockout in the tenth and final round of their bout, with Bruno leading clearly on all three judges' cards. He won his next six bouts against respected opposition and eventually  won the European heavyweight title with a KO over Sweden's Anders Eklund and got back into World Title contention with an impressive one round KO win over former WBA champion Gerrie Coetzee of South Africa, and, in July 1986, he challenged Tim Witherspoon for the WBA heavyweight title. After once again leading on the cards for most of the fight, he ran out of steam and was defeated by knockout in round eleven.

After this loss he got himself back into title contention with wins over former contenders and in October 1987 he faced the veteran Joe Bugner in an all British fight. Bugner although long past his peak, was coming off impressive wins. Bruno won by TKO in the 8th round. In 1988, he challenged Mike Tyson for the undisputed world heavyweight title. In the opening moments, the fighters came together with huge punches. Bruno's legs buckled, and he took a technical knockdown, due to stepping out of the ring.He continued in the round, ultimately rocking Tyson with a left hook toward the end of the round. However, Tyson recovered and eventually beat Bruno when the referee stopped the contest in round five.

Bruno kept winning fights, helping him to retain his spot as one of the world's leading heavyweights.In 1993 he had a third world title chance against the young Lennox Lewis, who was making the second defence of the belt, the fight was the first time that two British boxers had fought for the world heavyweight title. Lewis beat Bruno on a stoppage in round seven, Bruno again failing to take his title chance after leading the contest on points up until what proved the final round.

On 24 September 1994, Oliver McCall beat Lewis with a surprising and somewhat controversial second round knockout victory at Wembley Arena, and, after outpointing Larry Holmes, he came to England to defend the WBC title against Bruno. On 2 September 1995, Bruno finally became world champion by outpointing McCall over 12 rounds. He did not last long as champion – the contract he signed to get McCall, meant he had to face Mike Tyson in his first defence. Tyson beat Bruno on a stoppage in round three, Bruno performing unusually poorly in what turned out to be his last bout as a professional, due to a severe eye injury caused by Tyson.He retired from professional boxing soon after the fight.
