best, most talented, most respected british boxer??

Yeah, Eubank would just stop fighting and strike a pose for no reason.LMAO.

He did mess him up bad, he's only started being able to walk again in the last couple of years. It was a great fight, you should see it if you haven't yet. Watson was a very good fighter too, he handed Benn his first loss and was beating Eubank until he got KTFO.

Eubank speaks funny too, its hard to believe the guy grew up as a hard ass, i heard eubank was rough as **** in his younger days.

frank: Benn is more worthy than anyone else on that list, I'd pick Benn then Eubanks, not sure who the other two are. benn has been through hell, he is one of the few fighters I really respect. here's a little something some of you may not know about benn.



(pertaining to McClellan-Benn bout.)

Only 30 seconds into the match, McClellan makes lightning speak! Slowly, Benn began to come back into the fight. He was fighting McClellan on equal ground, when he got staggered with a direct right. He was knocked off his feet. Exit Benn? Not yet. Gathering his strength for a heroic turnaround, he destroyed his opponent's hopes with a tenth round KO. It was a magnificent fight with a tragic conclusion.

While Benn was celebrating his success, McClellan went back to his corner. He staggered there for a few seconds, and then collapsed under the eyes of Michael Watson. The ring doctor rushed onto the scene, followed by an ambulance and emergency unit. McClellan was in critical condition. At a nearby London hospital McClellan was rejoined by Benn, who had a premonition of disaster in the dressing room. He was right, the American was in serious danger. A blood clot had formed in the brain, ruining his hopes forever. No one would ever see the courageous McClellan fight again.

As for Nigel Benn, he'd been marked for life. He says he would like to visit the McClellan at his home in Michigan, but he is worried about how McClellan's family would react to the man who caused their terrible tragedy.

Benn will always remember the hand that lay so still in his hand on that February evening in 1995, the hand that belonged to a champion who had lost everything.

I had heard something along those lines. The Watson fight had a similar effect on Eubank, he was always reluctant to go in for the kill after that.

Barry McGuigan was a terrific little fighter and Duke McKenzie was a 3 weight world champ with some decent wins on his record.

wow.

I just looked up Eubanks on Boxrec and this is what displayed under the Watson fight-

Both fighters dropped. Watson spent 40 days in a coma, underwent 6 brain surgeries, and suffered permanent partial paralysis.

was it a good fight? i've never seen it. and I'd like to..sounds like they both have a stalker slugger style, I've never seen either of them fight

Great fight. Eubank gets dropped, in the 12th I think, and is well behind on points. He gets up and KTFO Watson almost immediately. Watson was a pretty skilled boxer and Eubank was counter puncher / ****er with fairly limited skills but great heart and chin.

Gonna look around for it, sounds like a great fight

He comes from Bristol, never been but I believe it's a rough as **** sort of town. Watched the Benn-Eubank fight for the second time again the other day, an absolute belter. The body shots Benn was putting in would have dropped most men. The Benn-Mclellan fight was stunning, I've got it on DVD and it never fails to give me goosebumps. Benn was never the same fighter after that, he pretty much said so after one of his clashes with Steve Collins. A guy I know went to a Gentlemans Evening where Benn was an after dinner speaker. he was asked if he had given Mclellan any money to help out. His reply was "**** him, Don King brought him over to put me in a wheel chair, let Don King sort him out". Of course, this may have been before he became a born again christian.

Lol
