Every fight I ever saw this guy is hitting people multiple times when they are down, hitting behind the head incessantly, hitting the back of the neck, and rabbit punching like there is no tomorrow. I hate this guy after watching his fights with Iran Barkley, McClellan, etc. Dirty piece of shit. Seriously, I hate this asshole. Send him to hell.
he hit him again when he was down. Both blatant, but the 2nd one he possibly could have been dq'd for. barkley was on all 4's and Benn came on top with hard right hand on Irans chin. What the eff was the ref thinking? I just looked this up to add to my claim that benn blatantly headbutted GMAN which is what changed the complexion of that fight.
I can pretty much agree with that. Two other dirty fighters that come to mind are Evander Holyfield and Bernard Hopkins. Two extremely dirty fighters, and no one calls (called) them out on it.
What Evander did in the second Tyson fight would have caused me to hit him low, at least... there was no reasonable way that fight was going to end up other than the way it did.
:cool:
Yes he was a dirty fighter , nothing like your hero Rocky Marciano , he would never hit an already knocked out Jersey Joe Walcott while he was on the floor for good measure would he Brock . ;D
nice to see Stevie Collins drilling the cheating bastard behind the head in the rematch. Oh and Eubanks stopping him in the last round first fight.
I've no issues with Benn as he came to fight. It's those others who hug and use the elbow that bother me a lot more. Those are spoiling tactics, Benn just came to fight.
How dare ou insult Holyfield and Hopkins, they were the cleanest fighters of all time. They never did nothin' ...haha I hated to watch them fight to say the truth. Holyfield should have been called 6-Heads Evander as he used his forehead 6 times per round. Hopkins is a pro at cheating. Makes me sick as well and I have never said shite about either of them two ever on this forum as a result.
Haha but Benn was a real bastard hitting a man on all 4's, that is bad.
As for Rocky,......... them's was different times, wasn't them? Yes he certainly knew how to hit Walcott with that hook after poor Joe was already unconscious and sagging to the floor. Terribly unecessary and I dont like watching that part of the fight. Also Rock hit Cockell many times at the rear of the head and ol' Archie too. I didnt like seeiing that I have to say.
One of the greatest sights in the history of boxing is Nigel Benn in wild man mode. Fact.
Lets watch Benn-Logan

Benn can only be faulted for the occasional clip simply because he was is such a determined rush to put his fist through a guys head.
We need more Benns. That is all.

Benn was a brutal street brawler. I think with his ferocious attack and dirty fighting he would have been better suited for MMA haha.
There is a sparring of Duran vs Benn on youtube, Duran was fooling around while Benn was unleashing is powerfull swings and missing all the time. Prime Duran would eat and skin him alive
The ref in Benn-McClellen should have been permanently banned from boxing for permitting Benn to rabbit punch.Quote:

As for Hopkins he was dirty and Holyfeild was worse but i don't think they ever hit a fighter when they were down at least don't think so.
Do you think Brock is being serious.!Quote:

Perhaps he's fucking with US.;DQuote:

Not calling him a racist but i think if you have a Italian fighter who did the same thing as other fighters he give him a pass.
Old is he not as old as myself, he is no racist my friend he has a Indian wife, remember there areQuote:

Yea i know he not racist but he backs his guys at times or maybe just the rock but Italian thing i find is true for the most part. I mean you back welsh fighter nothing wrong with that either just backing your guys form were your from. Thats pretty much why think he maybe serious about it but i don't know.
I like fighters simple don't really care were they are from, look at his post he's being controversialQuote:

We must all remember it's a boxing forum not life and death just like minded people

Eubanks stopped him in the 9th round.Quote:

That Day they Sparred Duran was Pissed. after the 1st I told Nigel to relax and enjoy, someone before had told Him to go Hard. Got to say when I was told I had Duran for 2 week in the Gym, I wasnt looking forward to it. Hank Caplin came over with Him. Got to say I loved every minute of it Duran is a Diamond and as funny as Fuck, Oh and He could Fight ;D.
Thanks Scrap. Duran was pissed whilst sparring? How can you beat that for inside knowledge? Beyond awesome.

That is one of the great things about having opinions. You get accused of being all kinds of things that you had never contemplated prior to expressing that point of view. 'Nigel Benn is black and Brockton says he is a dirty fighter, thus he might well be racist'. Ah, bless small minded humanity. ;DQuote:

I have pictures of Frederick Douglas and Booker T. Washington on my bookshelf, and a often wear a pin with Harriet Tubman on my blue jean jacket in the Fall. Marcus Garvey is a personal hero of mine, and my favorite musicians are Jimi Hendrix, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, James Blood Ulmer, Djeneba Sec, Sayon Camara, Harold Maeburn, Sonny Fortune, Wes Montgomery, George Benson, Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Coleman Hawkins, Charlie Christian, Lester Young, Count Basie, Pharaoh Sanders, Ornette Coleman, Eddie "Clean Head" Vinson, Eddie Blackwell, Buddy Miles and Buddy Guy.
Now as a little food for thought, I will leave you with the girl who I used to be in love with (this is no joke, after my 1st wife and I divorced, I dated this lovely woman for 1 year. I then went to Arizona and she went back to Mali about a year later.), Miss Djeneba Sec of Bamako, Mali:

Thought about this for a time, went back and reviewed some fights and to be perfectly honest I don't really find him as an over the top dirty fighter. Ali was just as dirty with his double clasps behind the head pulling down on the brain stem, holding and hitting in almost every fight. One hand holding behind the head on the opponents power side etc etc.
Brock used to date Carl Thompson?
