    Great fight from two legends of the game, the back and forth action at such a pace is unreal.

      True. No low blows, head clashes or anything. A proper hard fought but clean scrap.

      Very quick count at the end though. I know Benn didn't complain but he had every right to, in my opinion.

      @@tlig , yeah it's odd that the count is never mentioned. Coyle's count did seem a little on the quick side, which is one thing, but compounded by the fact that he was too focussed on the timekeeper rather than Benn. He wasn't looking at Benn when he was counting and hadn't even looked back at him when he waved it off - if he had, he'd have seen that Benn was up. For what it's worth I think Benn had shot his bolt anyway and the end would have come soon after, but I've seen big protests over less.

      @@simonnoble7589 your maturity and objectivity on the simple matter of fact has obviously proven too much to process. Truculence is a sad indictment of an individual struggling to understand and keep up. I salute your gallant but yet spurious effort to reproach whilst spotlighting your ignorance of fact and history……be happy 😃

    Benn's fighting style exposed him too much, as he relied on punching power with mediocre defense. This knockout was not just by way a jab, the previous left hook had stunned him and the jab finished him.

    Not long after this fight Mike McCallum schools Watson. My point being is that Benn was never a great fighter. Always hand picked or fighters past their prime or who ballooned up to 220 (Barkley) and then wants to fight them. A healthy McClellan, Toney, McCallum, Nunn,Hagler, Hearns and sooo many others beat Benn by k.o. Benn was a class B fighter his whole career, who did he beat? Oh Yeah Doug DeWitt. Lol
