    A fighter is allowed MORE THAN 10 SECONDS to recover if he is knocked through the ropes, check the queensbury rules. This has been gone through before, yet some of you are still bitter and ignorant to these rules.

        No ****. No one is bitter or 'ignorant'. It's just a simple fact that most refs would've stopped the fight. We're not only talking about the knockdown through the ropes. That was just one of Benn's problems.

        In any case, Toney beats Benn whenever. Toney is way smarter than Benn and would not take near as much damage.

        That said, however you see the fight is fine with me. Everyone has their own view of things.

            Have you ever timed/counted it SL? Benn was back and ready at 9. No ref who new what Benn was about would have stopped it there and then.

                Most refs in my estimation would've stopped it on the next knockdown. It was brutal especially considering he'd just been knocked through the ropes.

                Credit to Benn for coming back though.

                  Benn was only dazed in the first round, in the second knockdown he was exhausted but not really hurt.
                  However, if he didn't fight back after the knockdown (luckily he flurried back right away) the fight would of been stopped.

                    Yes he was heavily muscled, but he had superb stamina, he had half a dozen or more 12 round wars, he competed hard in all, win, lose or draw.
                    Dude, come on, Eubank spent most of his time posturing or conserving his energy.

                    His stamina was awful, and it was due to killing himself to make weight (leaves you dehydrated after six rounds if you shoot up in weight in the 24 hours before fight, having starved yourself to make weight.. like the idiot Eubank was).

                      Stop trashing Eubank.
                      You aren't half the man he is.
