    The title reads "The most exciting" and not "the best" :patsch

    Yeah Benn for me.

    His fight with G-Man was the best fight ive ever seen at the weight, despite the tragedy

    it's saddens me to watch the benn mclellan fight. just because those were his last moments of normality. not to extract from benn's victory, but i once heard that gman was seriously shooken up and hurt from a jab in sparring. not sure if it was just heresay or not. but if true, do you think gman had, unknowingly to him, neurological damage prior to his fight with benn? if so, i'm sure he wanted to quit earlier in that fight (imagine how his head felt) but kept on fighting anyways until it was too late.

    Far from it....

    For me Froch, RJJ are both more exciting.

    Benn was a UK version of Miranda in terms of style.

    Just seen the Collins fights then yeah ?
    Tell me, does a quitter go life and death for 10 rounds with a murderous puncher and sporting a broken jaw and snapped ligaments in his neck ?
