I think McClellan showed that Benn was VERY beatable....the G-Man just let him back in the fight and stayed too close to him allowing for the repeated shots on the back of the head....Roy would have stopped him in 6-8. Benn's legs would have been shot from trying to walk Roy down and everytime he would get close he'd eat 4-5 power punches
You know what annoys me about the G-Man v Benn fight? The tragedy could have been avoided had the rules been followed by the book!
When a fighter is knocked from the ring the rules state that he must return UNAIDED to the ring apron within the ten count if it is deemed a knockdown which when G-Man knocked Benn through the ropes it was.
But if you watch there are numerous people helping Benn back to his feet and therefore he should have been DQ'd.
I know this is not the point of this thread but everytime I think of that fight I cant help but think about this!
You need to watch the fight again. What you currently believe is utter bollocks.
