Returning to boxing.

I can't sit down and let these so called promoters, say Anthony Joshua can knock me out in two rounds when I'm not even dead.

I am not too sure this is a good idea for him.

Not even dead... yet.

Someone needs to offer him some strong advice!

Unfortunately, Harry Carpenter is dead. Otherwise he'd have knocked some sense in to big Frank.

Very unlikely that any boxing board of control in any nation would permit Frank to box again legally.

54 and a history of mental illness. This can't be a good idea, surely he won't be allowed to compete.

It won't happen due to Frank's mental health issues.Boxing's a tough brutal sport but even it wouldn't sanction Bruno boxing again.

I do hope you are right. Unfortunately the whole sport of boxing would be brought into disrepute if it went ahead.

Frank is a well loved character who sadly has had problems,so it won't happen.
As I stated boxing is brutal but it has stringent rules especially with head injuries etc,and he wouldn't pass them would he ? He could fight unlicensed but that wouldn't appeal to him as he would have done it before now.

Lets hope that is what happens but unfortunately money talks and some would like to see a circus
it would be so so sad if he is allowed

Imagine putting him in a ring with Joshua now, in his state?

Now to get him some professional help!

There is nothing sadder and more pathetic than an ex-boxer. Except maybe an ex-Coventry manager.

Boxing not considered an 'other sport' then?
