Michael Moorer vs Frank Bruno (1996)

Post by EdwardRevolver1993 »

What if Bruno and Moorer would've faced each other in a WBC/IBF unification bout in 1996?

Assuming Bruno isn't fighting Tyson in the 2nd bout...

How this fight would've gone?

I honestly think it would've been a very interesting one, with variables. Both had vulnerabilities that either one could exploit.

Moorer outboxes Bruno. There's a puncher's chance against the quite chinny Moorer, but overall Moorer is much more skilled.

Either MM's southpaw boxer-puncher style to outbox Bruno for a decision win or he would stop him late in 1996.

I'll go for Frank plugging him.....but admittedly it is heart and not science.

A lot of different scenarios are possible in this one. Both could punch and had weak chins, so it could be an early stoppage by either guy. Or back and forth with a lot of knockdowns/each guy getting hurt. Or it could turn to be more of a boxing match than a slugging match.
