FRANK BRUNO vs. JOE BUGNER (Site) 

Description : Here we have an original onsite boxing promotions fight poster for the heavweight showdown between Frank Bruno v Joe Bugner, White Hart Lane, London, 24 October 1987.

Perhaps mindful he was never going to win any popularity contests back in England, having been accused of 'robbing' a national institution in Henry Cooper in 1971, and still bitter at his treatment at the hands of the boxing writers he called "morons", 'Aussie Joe' returned from his adoptive country in 1987 to take on Britain's new heavyweight darling.

Bugner may have been 37 but the bout was not as lacking in credibility as it may seem in hindsight - Bugner had beaten top American heavyweights James Tillis, David Bey and Greg Page in his previous three fights. However, Cooper gained vicarious revenge through the hulking form of Bruno, who battered Bugner into submission inside eight rounds at White Hart Lane.
