    Was that chief supporting bout between Eubank and Logan televised along with Benn vs. Chilambe, or were you there live?

    There doesn't seem to be video available of it anywhere (although there is of Benn vs. Chilambe).

    It would be a thrill to watch, I would imagine.

    It depended on wether Benn's fight went short or not, if Logan-Eubank would be televised. And low and behold, Benn did go short. And Logan-Eubank was on ITV.

    I'm sure you can find it from online dvd traders. They both let everything go in that fight, but Eubank was clearly a class or two above despite being big underdog. He played into Logan's hands abit though and Eubank's stance did look abit novicey, with his arms and elbows out like wings, unlike his more accomplished, later stance from about the Benn fight where his arms and elbows are much more tightly tucked in.

    benn vs chilambe was a joke, chilambe gave it the big one then folded quicker than my mum would of . i found after driving home from the fight that one of chilambe's defeats came against his trainer :yep.

    Hard to believe that Chilambe is still fighting :-(

    Actually that was just desperation. If you want to see proper young Benn power, than I suggest watching the Yoe and Chandler fights...

    Do not worry about time, you can watch the whole of both fights, and still get change from a minute and a half!

    Cordoba was a fast starter, had Nunn in trouble early.
