Frank Bruno Eager to Return After Health Scare: Boxing Legend's Road to Recovery

Former world heavyweight boxing champion Frank Bruno shares his journey of recovery after a serious health scare, expressing his eagerness to return to the ring.

Former world heavyweight boxing champion Frank Bruno has recently opened up about his health scare and his determination to return to his passion for boxing. After falling ill on a flight from Heathrow and spending nearly two weeks in a hospital in Doha, Bruno is now focused on his recovery and getting back into the ring.

Bruno, 63, shared his experience on social media, stating, "The last three weeks have been tough, especially not knowing what was wrong with me. A viral infection can mean loads of things. I’m thankful for the hundreds of messages from well-wishers. Can't wait to get back to work."

Bruno’s career highlights include 40 victories out of 45 professional fights between 1982 and 1996. He made history by defeating American Oliver McCall in 1995 to win the WBC heavyweight title. His resilience and determination continue to inspire fans and fellow athletes.

The boxer’s much-anticipated 'Evening with Frank Bruno' event in Manchester has been postponed due to his recent hospitalization. Fans eagerly await his return, not just to the stage but potentially to the world of boxing.

Stay tuned as Frank Bruno continues his journey of recovery and plans his return to the sport that has defined his illustrious career.
