Jeff Harding and Nigel Benn latest

I remember getting Boxing News the day before their first fight. The front page headline was HARD TIMES FOR THE HARDINGS*. * Jess Harding was challenging Gary Mason (RIP) for the British title a few days later. Their three fights were great. The day after the last bout (which was another close classic & showed how fair British based judging was back then) I was at a Duke McKenzie bout in Battersea & Dennis Andries & the up & coming Billy Schwer were both in attendance. The article was a bit wishy washy though. Benn's been carping on about this carpenter fella since the start of the Millennium.

One of the greatest trilogies ever seen in boxing history, very often overlooked too. The Andries/Harding fights were brutal, blood curdling wars and if you haven't seen them, do yourself a favour and get the **** on to it. It's the Gatti/Ward of the light heavies, and i think it was even better overall as a three fights series. Amazing ****. Really great to hear that they are all doing well too. Just saw Michaels' guy fight in a recent local card in an incredible fight. One of the FOTY here for 2013middleweight from memory.
