    Default Nigel Benn v Anthony Logan

    Just watched this again for first time in years. Forgotten just how good a two rounder it was.

    How many refs today would have waved it off when Benn was in serious trouble and not fighting back ? How different would his career have been as a result ?

    What a warrior he was. He's the reason I fell in love with boxing as many of my age did back then.

    As I recall, this is the one where Benn is on ice skates and still swings wildly to KO Logan.Otherworldly power. The kind of stuff Randall Bailey and Julian Jackson could do, though I'd rate their one punch power a touch above Benn's. Neither were quite the warrior Benn was either though.

    Great fight and something I wish I could do to Mark TKO.

    The right hand that leads to the left sparkage shot is so violent it cracks me up every time.

    Haven't seen this in ages, was amazed Logan actually got to his feet. He arguably should have been given a chance to continue considering how badly he'd just had Benn hurt, he knew where he was.

    To think the TV company decided not to show the fight because they could not agree the money.

    Logan did very well and brought it to Benn like McCallum or Toney would have done in their own distinct way. Even when Logan thought he had it won he gets blasted. All the best thrills of a violent boxing match.

    Some flick a jab and some just smash a guy in the head . Glad they kept Logan on the local circuit after Benn and he got a shot at a young Eubank.

    Just checked Logan's record.

    He quit aged 26 with four losses. Wonder why ?

    Went out on a win too which is strange for a boxer.
