Up until Gerald took a knee for good, this was the most entertaining fight I've seen. It helped the drama that the Brits were singing and screaming the entire time. Huge bombs being thrown the whole fight, Benn out of the ring, McClellan taking a knee with erratic blinking and confusion. High drama. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using Tapatalk
Ali vs Frazier 3, watched this live as a kid, never saw anything like it to this day. Tyson vs Douglas. 40/1 underdog gives the baddest man on the planet a beat down nobody saw coming. A knockdown and disputed count, fight had everything. Calzage vs Lacy, Calzage mustered great intensity here, schooling and beating down a more fancied American. He was made after this fight.
You are too emotional about the aftermath, McClellan was a dog fighting wrong'un so don't feel for a man like that. McClellan was a man who taped the mouths of Labradors so his pitbulls could rip them to pieces. He was owed for his sins against defenceless animals and got what he was owed. Anyway, It was a fantastic performance by Benn, McClellan was brought to the UK to beat up Benn and take the world title. Benn got off the floor after being punched out and through the ropes inside a minute and came steaming back to win in a brutal fight that was all about legalised violence. I was actually there that night, The atmosphere was the best I've ever experienced, it gives me chills now thinking of Benn walking to the ring and the noise was unbelievable.
You're being way too harsh on the guy. Animal cruelty is evil and should be punished with prison time (note, he was only ever alleged of doing what your spoke of), he didn't deserve brain damage.
