Nigel: 'God's Word means more than World Title.'

:goodnice one

 

Oh yes, me and Nige go back. Got a proper man hug off him(nowt gay or owt) when Widdy n me met him and Steve collins at a dinner do last year. I was tellin my mate Nige, about that night when i worked his corner with JT at that shithole Old Trafford and he obviously remembered me:roll: Nearly cracked a rib he squeezed me that tight.
BTW did I ever mention that I worked Nigel Benns corner with Jimmy Tibbs when he fought Chris Eubank in their rematch at Old Trafford........****in top night.

 

nice post:good

 

FFS,im gonna put it on your gravestone

:yepgood story though bro:hey
nigel benns a legend,he can do and say owt in my book and i will still love him:good

 

Loved what he did in the ring. Sick to death of hearing about his religion though :good

Always a Eubank fan if I had to pick too TBH

 

From where do you get the deluded idea that you outlive me:huh yep

 

:verysad:verysad:verysad Dan Dan Dan......Dan. Don't dis Nige, please. Eubank is a legend and has the hardest head in British boxing history, but don't dis Nige.:-(

 

Blue

I know your mates an all (I'm pretty sure I heard once that you've met him or something mundane like that :yep) but I was always more of a Eubank fan and the way he pretends that Boxing means nothing to him now and his religious preaching puts me off him more.

 

He's about the only person I'd listen to talking about God. Just a top, top man. I would never have expected him to live like he does now... mad.

Cheers to the original poster, great read.

 

Nigel was always a tormented soul - you could tell he was never at peace with himself during his fighting days.

He needs a faith now to help him reflect on his life and bring him peace.

 

I find it odd how everyone seems to have been a Eubank fan nowadays, when at the time pretty much the whole of the UK seemed to behind Benn, whilst loathing Chris (not always in a pantomime way either).

Anyway, one of the most exciting British boxers ever and I have no problems listening to his new found stuff nowadays - though I may not agree with it all.

 

Get the vid up :yep Nige is taking more notice of you than he is of Tibbs

 

What a lot of ****, you can hear he loves talking about boxing when he reminisses about his big wins, he wouldnt bring them up if he didnt

 

as the most exciting fighter, british or otherwise there has ever been nigel can talk about double glazing if he wants or even sell me jehova-ism
