It was the final fight of Frank Bruno's career, and one of the toughest against Iron Mike Tyson. Bruno, always a winner in terms of public affection, had confirmed his place as a British boxing great in 1995 when he beat Oliver McCall at Wembley to become the WBC heavyweight champion, a world beater at the fourth attempt. Next up was Tyson at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas - and it was the American's third fight since his comeback from a prison sentence. Tyson and Bruno fought before in 1989 when Tyson defended his heavyweight crown, knocking out Bruno in the fifth. On that day Bruno seriously troubled the younger champion. However, the rematch was one-sided, taking Tyson only six minutes and 50 seconds to regain the title. “I threw punches in bunches because I knew Bruno couldn’t stand up to my power,” Tyson said. “I think Mike Tyson was better than I thought,” Bruno told the TV interviewer. “I’m going home to be with my family.” And that was the end of Bruno's career in the ring. TV, pantomime and entertainment followed. Then the toughest fight of his life against mental illness after being diagnosed as bipolar. "It is a constant fight," he said in 2017. "You’d never say you are winning, but you do get more experienced."
