Frank Bruno sends warning to Tyson Fury ahead of Deontay Wilder showdown

Frank Bruno has warned Tyson Fury to cut out the showboating against Deontay Wilder or risk losing his unbeaten professional record. The pair will face each other again for the WBC heavyweight title following their controversial draw in Los Angeles in 2018. Bruno told talkSPORT: “If you look at Wilder’s last fight against Luis Ortiz, it took him seven rounds before Wilder caught him with a right hand. “Tyson Fury is much fresher, much more skilful, much younger and a better boxer. All he’s got to do is not got hit. He has the bulk and weight behind him. He is about two, three stone heavier than Wilder. He will bully him and is a better boxer than Ortiz. If you watch him, he is borderline 40 and was boxing Wilder’s ears off before he got caught.  “Fury, when he fought Wilder, wasn’t fazed for the 12 rounds. And don’t forget he lost ten stone. He is very tricky, you never know what he is going to do. He can turn southpaw, orthodox and he can box and frustrate you.  “As long as he doesn’t get stupid and too brave because Wilder has dynamite in both his hands. But that is all he has got. In the last fight, Wilder got him late but Tyson got too complacent and became a showman. He has to stay focused, watch him at all times, use his skill.  “If he boxes sensibly, he boxes smart, he has got the height, the reach, the weight, the experience behind him to box his ears off all night. ‘If he starts showboating, he could get caught.” Source: Metro
