Carl Froch Reveals Controversial Winner Of Frank Bruno Vs Anthony Joshua Fight
Carl Froch’s feud with Anthony Joshua continues to escalate. Initially sparked by Joshua’s departure from longtime coach Rob McCracken and subsequent criticisms, tensions flared further when Froch publicly aired private WhatsApp messages revealing Joshua’s unfavorable opinion of him. Since then, Froch has taken to social media to critique Joshua’s mindset, losses, and overall career trajectory, suggesting that Joshua would have been defeated by a prime Frank Bruno, citing timing as a crucial factor.
Speaking exclusively to BestOnlinePokerSites, Froch emphasized Bruno’s prowess during his era, particularly highlighting Bruno’s bout against Lennox Lewis as exemplary of his capabilities. Froch asserted that the Bruno of that time would have triumphed over Joshua, attributing the difference in heavyweight boxing landscapes then and now.
Comparisons between Joshua and Bruno have often surfaced due to similarities in their upright fighting styles and formidable punching power. Bruno, renowned for his 95% knockout-to-win ratio with 38 knockouts in 40 victories, secured the world heavyweight title in 1995 after multiple attempts but lost it in his subsequent bout against Mike Tyson.
The ongoing saga between Froch and Joshua underscores the complexities within the boxing community, where past legends and current stars intersect with varying opinions and analyses.
