Bradford Telegraph and Argus: Frank Bruno is coming to Bingley.Frank Bruno is coming to Bingley.

Bruno had a storied 14-year career, trading blows with some of the very best heavyweights in the history of the sport.

After defeats to Tim Witherspoon, Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis, the Londoner finally captured a version of world honours in 1996 after beating Oliver McCall at Wembley Stadium.

Another knockout loss at the hands of Tyson a year later led to Bruno hanging up the gloves.

Following his retirement, the now 60-year-old suffered terribly from mental health issues, with his battle well documented in the public eye.
