collins took a thunderous left hook from benn & u expected him 2 fall down as any body else would of or did when benn hit them like that, but collins just took it & stayed up & winked at benn- u knew the fight was won & lost there & then
collins had a ****** chin, tony thornton was a powerful puncher in the 80s but broke his right hand on collins head (!) & never hit hard again after that, reggie johnson dropped james toney but collins took everthing he had, mike mccallums left hook ko'd don curry but collins just walked right through it. damn collins was as hard as nails

I always thought Collins was like a lump of granite- He never looked like losing to Benn IMO. He just seemed indestructable at that time
Predicting Mayweather and Hatton was easy - every other boxing expert did the same.
Benn admitted Roy Jones wud outclass him (interview while benn was boxing - he says after the mclellan fight that he cudnt beat RJJ)....so its pretty easy to call out Roy Jones once ur retired and promised u wont come out of retirement.
Benn also hated naz and so was always gonna bad mouth him
If u hear benn now - u can barely understand wat he says...his lisp and general speech has deteriorated like how holyfield's has also. I guess its wat happens after u been in as many wars as those guys....

I dont think his speech is that bad at all. He has always had a lisp, and i remember after the McClellan fight i thought he looked a liitle worse in an interview, but i saw him on a programme a while ago, and hes the same now as he was years ago.
And i dont think he was calling out Roy Jones, he said he would fight him if his family let him. He always wanted to fight Jones eventhough he knew he would lose.
