What do you think made Benn one of histories biggest quitters?
Benn one of histories biggest quitters!!! Don't be daft! Try taking a closer look over his career i.e. Logan, Eubank, McClellan etc etc etc.
The fact of the matter is Benn should have quit the game after the McClellan fight but as is the case with many other fighters that fight made him think he could go on longer than he should have done and of course money is always a strong motivation.
Benn hurt his ankle in the 1st Collins fight and should have forgotten about a re-match but his pride got the better of him. To call Benn a quitter is completely wide of the mark and of-course he was reknowned for how dangerous he was when in danger himself which is not something you'd associate with a quitter! Benn would've beaten the likes of Collins and Malinga at his best IMO.
he did beat Malinga, 5 years prior
Quite right, i've just read that back. My apologies. I meant Collins... Benn would beat Collins 9 times out of 10 at his best.
