Watch Nigel Benn vs. Gerald McClellan

Or Eubank vs Watson II. Benn/McClellan fight is more dramatic though.

[Grimmer]

Yeah, Benn v McClellan and Eubank v Watson 2

[Squirrel]

I think knowing about what's happened is enough, there's no need to watch the fights again surely?

Well in that case he should look further into boxrec. I know there's a lot of material on ring fatalities.
