Frank Bruno

Post by Bob »

Does anyone have a fight-by-fight record for Frank Bruno as an amateur...I know he was 20-1, avenging his only defeat against Joe Christle and winning the ABA's in 1980 versus Rudi Pika, but has anyone compiled his complete record?

This was most likely the only fight Bruno had against a Swede.

London 1979-11-26
FB vs Jorge Perez, Stockholm 3-0.
It was part of a dual between London and Stockholm.

NB!

It was not a dual Sweden vs England, it was Stockholm vs London.
