Nigel Benn V Roberto Duran ------Public Sparring Session !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think Duran was Half Pissed while Sparring with Benn that session.The 1st round He tried did Nigel, the 2nd He was told to calm down which He did.

 

Wow just goes to show wat duran was made of. tough old boots that fella. pure respect to him.....

 

I was at the event... In fact both Duran and Tim Witherspoon were in Britain and trained at the same place the same week.. Tim Sparred with Trevor Hughroy Curry and knocked the stuffing out of Trevors headgear literally as he prepared for a bout at the york hall against Mauricio Villeagas......... (Fat Mexican Import)

 

That was just from memory, hardly "disputing" anyone elses version and, unlike the guy who posted the clip, at least I got the country the spar took place in right...

 

who gives a **** where it was, enjoy it

 

Its always nice to know the background to stuff like this IMHO (as well as enjoying it!!!).

 

fair enough, i was steaming

 

At least get the quote right, I deliberately used the word "think" because I was going from memory.....

I still think the bigger error is yours, you posted up a clip and backed it up with wildly inaccurate background information, I was merely attempting to help you out and extracate you from the web of lies you found yourself in.

 

a duran vs benn fight was actually touted around this time
