"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,"British former world heavyweight champion Frank Bruno wants to return to the ring at the age of 54.
Bruno, who has not fought since being knocked out by Mike Tyson in 1996, has been suffering with bipolar disorder in recent years.
However, he told ITV's This Morning: "I've been in the gym all the time, that's why I want to come back into boxing."
Asked if it was a good idea, Bruno replied: "I haven't got a choice."
Bruno, who made his professional debut in 1982, says he returned to the gym to burn off energy and does not like to be "mugged off" when challenged by younger boxers.
"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," Bruno added.
The BBC has contacted the British Boxing Board of Control for a response.
That's quite a decent put-down, if he meant it.
Für eure Sicherheit
Tbf he does look pretty amazing for his age
But the boxing authorities would probably end up with blood on their hands if they ever handed out a licence again.

NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Bruno's been told by the British Boxing Board of Control that they wouldn't grant him a licence. Probably because of his bi-polar disorder...

Looks like Joshua is ready to step up. The challenge for him won't be winning the title off this bum, it will be defending the title against opponents of a far higher calibre than what he has been used to.
Hmm. Not sure about that. Going for a main belt after only 15 bouts? Ambitious I'll give him that.
A Chisora or Haye could've been a more sensible step up, unless going for the weaker of the belt holder allows him to cherry pick subsequent films a lot easier.
Joshua fighting in a bit
