    :good Glad you joined mate, top addition :yep.

    I'm not sure who the little white fella is, I take it he's a minister. The other guys Darren Moore ex West Brom centre back.

    just watched this, nigel is pretty deep into the religion, id just like to remember him as a bad ass that knocked people spark out, might not be his way to be remembered but thats what comes into my mind when i think of the dark destroyer

    It's a major transformation, He's always been a emotional guy. My half sister met him up Streatham Common. There cars colided nothing major just scrapes on car and she was little shaken up by it. He noticed and took her for a drink and she said he was a total gent.

    :-( Nigel Benn could of been by brother in law if she had any brains :lol:.

    But seriously i got so much respect for this guy, open as a book and is a inspiration. As he once said and will always stick with me ''I was once walking in darkness now i'm walking in the light''.

    Walk on brother :happy.

    Agreed very moving stuff, His wife to many will be a walkover but that lady has stood by him through the murkiest waters. That's a true loving woman, he's a lucky man and he knows it. Praise the lord that he's found Jesus.

    People may not like religion etc, But this is one of the success stories. Nige is finally at peace with himself. There's been no doubts he's faced a civil war from within himself. He's always been a messed up guy, now he's fighting the good fight.

    Thanks for watching lads, it deserves it.

    I can imagine what the interview is like, and i don't believe Nigel Benn will be saying what is really on his mind.
