Can you watch this without shedding a tear? (Nigel Benn interview)

Miburo

This interviewer is not very tactful. It's well known that Benn attempted suicide partially in response to that fight.

Boxing is a brutal sport at times in more ways than one! Ray.

Very emotional video yes but I didn't shed a tear. Probably the hardest one to watch is the Documentary where Emile Griffith meets the son of Benny Parret.

But good to see Benn is doing well. I just hope the same for Mclellan.

That was a great documentary. I agree it was difficult to watch and had a very depressing vibe.

I had already seen this vid and many Nigel benn vs Mcclellan interviews etc... and always have felt a strong vibe out of them. Tragic stuff.

But to be honest i think this kind of videos and documentaries are really important to watch if u decide to get serious with boxing, its good to know the good and the bad of the things you love.

Great vid men thx for sharing its been a while since i saw this one.

Yup. It's really unfortunate that this kind of stuff happens in the ring. It's a part of the game though. I'm more happy for Griffith than anything. He had closure.

Its a bit chaotic at mine just now but that looks like its gonna be a brutal and moving video, i will watch it first chance i get so thanks for the heads up Sir
