    Glencoffe deserves a lot of respect for being a great pro with tremendous heart, but the truth is he's just a decent fighter, nothing more. Good on him for taking advantage of a shot Jones though.

      Johnson is not flashy, but he's more than a decent fighter because his excellent chin, workrate, and plain meanness made him a threat. Johnson was always a bit underrated. I think Benn would have beaten him, unless Glen just exhausted Benn through mental toughness.

      All I'm saying is...good fight to watch. Two fighters fighting.

        Yeah maybe decent is a bit harsh, he did give Clinton Woods a lot of problems as well as a few other decent fighters.

          Woods is another underrated fighter who went life and death with old man Glen every fight from what I know.

          One thing I noticed about Benn is his amazing handspeed, not just his power. He was a little wild though, which maybe hurt him vs Eubank.

            My favourite Benn KO was the Sherry one (on his fruitless Anything Eu Can Do campaign), which I don't have son. The punch that took Sherry out he wasn't even trying to KO him, just so much natural power.

                  He had superb natural punching leverages, and a lot of his punches were picture-perfect.
