    I do remember hearing about Benn & being excited to him. He would be high on my list too.

    The great thing about Nigel Benn, he was like a wounded Tiger when hurt. The opponent thought he had him then boom, goodnight!

    Yep, can remember all the hype surrounding the McClellan fight. The journalists really painted him as being an unstoppable pitbull, they were fearing for Benn's safety.

    Benn feared no man and the look in his eyes at the face off in the ring gave me goosebumps, the man was a warrior!
