    McLellan shouldn't have passed a pre fight medical, he went into the ring compromised and what happened to him was always going to happen if he kept fighting. Period

      stuff like that make think hard about continuing to follow boxing but I never stopped. It's a brutal brutal sport.
      I know people that stopped following for many years after this fight.

        Probably would've been ok without the repeated blows to his brain stem.

          A minute ago it was 'certainly' now you're on 'probably'. Almost as if you were talking **** about something you know **** all about.

          Tarick Salmaci, a Kronk Gym fighter, claimed later in an interview that he sparred with McClellan some time before the Benn fight, and after being hit with a jab, McClellan started to blink hard and the session had to be stopped. McClellan initially claimed that he was thumbed but later admitted in the locker room that he was in fact seriously hurt. Salmaci said that he found it strange that a fighter with McClellan's chin, wearing a headgear was being hurt by a jab, and that when he noticed McClellan blinking during the Benn fight the same way, he was immediately aware that he was in serious trouble.[4]

            Because so many victims are turning into G Men, my friend

              So he had suffered a brain bleed already in sparring but bravely took all those punches, mostly to the back of the head and started blinking again in the 10th just like his sparring partner saw? On top of being another typical British casual you must also be a Doctor.

                  Show me another fight where he attacked a guys brain stem like that and I'll show you another maimed victim.

                    It's your theory or did you forget ? As if Benn had it out for G Man.

                    Let's go to every ''maimed'' fighter and see where the injury occurred.

                      No it's your theory. I saw him repeatedly hitting the man behind the head. Show me another Benn fight where he did that and there you'll have it.
