Becks 0 Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Probably the best fight ever. set at the docklands-atmosphere was intense. Turn up the volume and listen to the soundtrack as well. Feel sorry for Mclellen tho http://youtube.com/watch?v=CHj95sZQjSM&sea...%20nigel%20benn Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest oldskool Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 that was a hell of a scrap!! its terrible the way that fights like that get forgotten about also the folk that get hurt trying to please a crowd. [bANNED TEXT] they dont plz a crowd then they are labelled shite by folk who wud crap their shorts if put in a ring. thankfully cases like that now are alot rarer thanks to tighter medical examinations and better refereeing. if that fight was fought today then mclelland would have won it in the 1st round.

MATTI 34 Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 It is tragic the way this fight panned out for The G-MAN, but when he came to England to fight The DARK DESTROYER, both he and Don King said they had come to take Benn's title, money and pride, also the mention of putting him in a box would have any-one fighting like the warrior he did.
