I don't think Collins can be added to that, he came along at the end when both fighters had had their day
I remember Watson being very popular. He even was allowed the McCallum slip up. He was not as brash as Benn or Eubank, but that worked in his favour. He was very much the equal in the popularity stakes at least down here in London.
yep I can understand that, I'm from the north and Watson wasn't a name with the casual fan, not like Benn Eubank anyway
I think all three would be bigger stars now, even without each other
Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
