    It is a great fight. It is one of those you have to return to watch every couple of years. It's just so good.

    It's hard to evaluate McClellan in terms of where he stands in history because his career was too short. He only really fought Jackson and Benn and didn't go that many rounds. You saw flashes of good boxing against Benn, you saw ferocity in the first round, but he also got hit too easily. It's hard to say. All I can say with any certainty is no way would he have beaten Joe Calzaghe. I think Toney would have schooled him too. Eubank probably more even based on styles. Thing is you know all those guys could go 12 and had great chins. You don't know any of that about McClennan.

    In that case Roy Jones​ and Mike McCallum beat him too.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
