Collins took Benn's best left hooks without blinking an eyelid - that's what will always stand out most about him for me.

He had many v.tough one's earlier on, against Tony Thornton (very nearly lost his ear!), Reggie Johnson (who hit him with absolutely everything), and McCallum (soaked up his bodyshots and came back stronger..!).

What a hard man, and what an awkward style he came up with from the Eubank II fight through the Benn fights - arguably the messiest, most unskilled (yet highly effective) swarming style we'll see.

A true throwback.
