    Just watched it on catch up. He's great to watch fair play. Back in the day, You were either a Benn fan or a Eubank fan, and I was always a Benn fan(although I do like Eubank as a bloke now.)
    Benn's victory against McClennan was one of the greatest performances by any British fighter anytime, anywhere.
    One small thing, I am a bit sceptical about the "born again" stuff, but hey ho.

    I'm amazed he smoke 20 cigarettes a day right the way through his career and still fought the way he did 😉
    Nah he was proper God squad I remember he lived in Mallorca the same time my brother did about 15-20 years ago and we met some role who were close to him 😊
    Enjoyed watching that and love Nigel he's proper 😊

    Brilliant, brutal and honest interview just like Benn. One of the most exciting fighters in the 1990’s.

    Nigel Benn interview was very moving and I forgot how much I was a fan of his.

    Racists killed his big brother
    Joined army at 17 1/2
    Fought every month in his first year as a professional.
    He describes Ambrose Mendy as English Don King.
    He described Bruno as the Black Henry Cooper and had to play up to the image of being stupid created by the press.
    After boxing retired and became a DJ
    Popping pills and cheating on his wife who became a born again Christian
    He has a boy who is boxing and is very talented.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
