Nigel Benn v G-MAN

[DaxxKahn]

Sounds Geyish.........Dont really give a fark. I love Nigel Benn.For as flawed as He was as a Boxer His intensity and desire in the ring was One of the key factors that Imbebed me as a dedicated Fan.Fought like I use to live life...Face first.From the first day I saw him live in the Dewitt Squabble followed by the Barkley scrap...(which had many a friend bashing him for "Cheating" and Me the only one in a roomfull of Drunken Americans rooting for him).

Nigel kind of got a bad rap after all this happened...I always found him to be a decent guy from what I have ever seen of him in interviews etc...He was a dangerous fighter that could end anything at anytime with 1 shot....It was his chin that was his biggest downfall...He was not really and overly skilled technical fighter by any means and IMO he relied on that power a bit too much like many guys with big power...Benn though was so strong it often left guys with greater boxing ability on the defensive so much and in fear of countering due to being caught by one of his swaring hooks they were taken out of their game all together...

I was a fan

here is a decent little video of his career I found on youtube

Nigel prided himself on being a bad guy.

He had a verrry questionable youth, he was saved by the military and rumours abound to this day, of his shady connections

Donny if I made a list of fighters over the years that fit that profile it would take a week
