Well, 'The Celtic Warrior' was just that a warrior. He always fought his heart out never leaving anything for the next fight.

In his fight against McCallum he was just outclassed he only had 16 fights at the time but even then he showed he belonged in the ring.
In his fights against Johnson it was a gutsy performance & the Kalambay fight I've never seen so I can't comment on that.
When he faced Pyatt for the WBO belt, Pyatt was working on his 4th defense of the title and AGAIN Collins entered as the underdog to a title fight as he already had against McCallum & Johnson. He dismantled Pyatt and captured the title I read an article on that fight were it was said that Collins was lucky that night. I don't think so he fought well and did his job.
The 1st tear up with Eubank was just great, he showed heart and determination. the 2nd was a coin toss in the end I think they got the righ winner.
The Benn fights were gimmies I mean ODLH fought JCC, Holmes fought Ali it happens, it's part of the sport. He performed at top class in those 2 figthts and settled in there.
I still wish he and Liles would have met around '96....

Anyway!!!
A lot of people don't know much about Collins since he isn't as celebrated as other SMW but IMO he has been the best SMW of times....
He was in the movie Lock Stock and two smoking barrels for a couple seconds he was the bouncer of a club.
He was also in a U2 music video I forget the name of the song he also just comes out for a few seconds....

Let me check YouTube see if I can find it.
