    my only input would be, out of the three, if i needed someone to go out with me to face a ****ing army i'm picking benn. that guy would fight to the death for respect or pride

    i won't argue that benn probably deserved the decision but it wasn't THAT big a robbery. poor judging, too many close rounds went eubanks way giving him an undeservede draw but there were periods of that fight that WERE tough to score

    I know my opinion on that fight is considered quite strong, I've had the argument too many times to not realise that, but I had Benn winning about nine rounds as I recall. I just felt he had Eubank in a panic all through the fight and it contributed to Eubank's timid performance for a lot of the bout.
