andyj247 (U1882541) posted Nov 3, 2007 From a boxing point of view - Lewis was out of sorts in the first 3 rds becasue Bruno started more aggressivly than Lewis expected but as Bruno tired Lewis got back in it - showed his classier skills and stopped Bruno in 7, i wouldnt say it was a glass jaw from Bruno, he didnt go down, but he got hit with some hard shots and it had to stop there.

AndyBottomley (U10253215) posted Nov 3, 2007 Yes Lewis v Bruno was a world title match. For the WBC title which Lennox picked out of the bin Riddick Bower dumped it in. He defended it once against Tony Tucker before defending against Bruno. posted Nov 3, 2007 Bruno's problem wasnt a glass jaw, the problem was he never went down to clear his head and just stood there taking blow after blow. As someone else said, he had little or no survival skills (except for that last round against McCall!)

KidBarrow (U7501634) posted Nov 4, 2007 Bruno was a prime example of a guy who was not a natural fighter. A natural boxer will clinch, hang on or do anything to get a few seconds to regain his senses. Thomas Hearns was a good example of this when he was hurt as his chin was "suspect" Bruno was a very brave but limited fighter.
