FRANK’S HEAVY MOB

WE ASKED FRANK WARREN TO CHOOSE THE BEST BRITISH HEAVYWEIGHTS FROM PREVIOUS YEARS…

LENNOX LEWIS ‘HE’D BE MY NUMBER ONE. HE WAS A GREAT THREE-TIME WORLD CHAMPION AND DEFEATED SOME REALLY GOOD FIGHTERS, INCLUDING MIKE TYSON, EVANDER HOLYFIELD AND VITALI KLITSCHKO.’

JOE BUGNER ‘BUGNER WAS EUROPEAN CHAMPION BUT DIDN’T FULFIL HIS POTENTIAL. HE HAD A CLASSIC FIGHT WITH JOE FRAZIER IN 1973, LOSING ON POINTS, AND TWO NARROW DEFEATS TO MUHAMMAD ALI.’

FRANK BRUNO ‘FRANK IS OFTEN UNDERRATED, BUT DON’T FORGET HE WON THE WBC HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE IN 1995 BY DEFEATING OLIVER MCCALL, WHO HAD BEATEN LENNOX LEWIS THE YEAR BEFORE.’
