    I'd have to agree with that. I always found it humorous that when Bugner fought in a rage, he started knocking people out with ease.

    Watch the Winston Allen fight I posted above, where Bugner gets headbutted and instantly knocks Allen out with a right hand. I believe the pre-fight hype for the Richard Dunn fight got a bit ugly and Bugner responded by knocking Dunn out in one.
    He finally looked a killer against Dunn. He probably showed more agression against Dunn than in 2 fights with Ali. Good showing against Frazier though probably the highlight of his career for me.

      I think it was another fighter who bit him on the shoulder. I've heard about that but never seen it. I believe Bugner went onto knock that opponent out as well.

        I just watched the fight and it's jogged my memory..
        To begin with I thought, that's strange, as it's something Joe once made a brief comment on himself, in an email to me..

        It isn't until back in his dressing room after the fight, that Bugner notices the distinct shape of a bite mark on his collar bone, and allows the press to photograph it..
        I believe Allen was actually disciplined by the BBBC over it..

          You're probably right. I heard that he was bitten during one of his comeback fights in the 1990's but someone must've gotten it confused with this fight.
