they truly hated each other but had 100% respect for one another after the fight, and their very good friends today....true Fighters.....

[@mannyd803]

True short of them being very good friends today, they still take jabs at each other in interviews all the time.

[@jukeboxjonnie]

Eubank didn't hate Benn, he was above all that :)

[@DanJWR22]

leoevs441 they are not friends

[@sajhussain2317]

Friends❓

[@nigeldavies7058]

good friends? as far as i know they still dont like each other. they almost has a fight years after their 2 fights on a TV program

[@ajjohnstone7063]

For Eubank to admit that Benn was the hardest puncher he faced is amazing. He never gave anything away yet to reveal that shows the kind of fighting spirit he has!

[@adrianoelblanco9586]

Eubank is the most bougie trash talker i have ever seen its absolutely amazing

[@mishanya9495]

Hahaha

[@graemepae2839]

Non of the bollocks... Just two Great Brits... toe to toe. My absolute favorite fighters of my late teens early 20s. Even now I admire them both. Brilliant!

[@MarkFinnegan-h8k]

I remember them well and even before them. Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvelous Marvin, Hitman Hearns, Roberto Duran + plenty more. Without listing the heavy weights too, we all remember them. To my point, how privileged were we??? Them magical times are gone and they'll never return, EVER!!! ☹️

[@neil7236]

Great era for British boxing..Miss those days :-)

[@paul-ie6wi]

🤲 lol hope you see this as my mum and dad like boxing and they where born again Christians….they loved Saturday fight night with Jim rossentile……great era as you say

Benn was no gent

[@britishbulldog9580]

2 greats that actually fought each other instead of ducking like todays boxers

[@itsme-ow1nn]

& they gave it their all. No running, no taking a knee to catch a breath.

[@justinsamudio4093]

Big true today is all about money no pride no honor

[@francishegarty8087]

@CHRIS SAVAGE They both ducked Mc Callum , mind you I don't blame them and they weren't alone, a lot of guys dodged the Bodysnatcher, the most avoided fighter of the late 80s and early 90s.

True but the brits are not world stage as much as then

@endmy suffering weak opposition the prospects will soon come! And kick but

[@kizakizzar]

Love how humble they both are after the fight both mentioning how well the other was. What a good fight this was!!

[@silvermediastudio]

Every time Nigel gets rocked.. "oh that's when he's dangerous!"

[@davestuddaman8127]

Pretty much every time he’s breathed Nige is dangerous. And if he farts, DEADLY!!!

[@thomasyoung3268]

Great rivalry and what mutual respect afterwards.

[@davidhealy4534]

Best fight ever.Watched it when I was 15, then had it on VHS.

[@warrencrawfordart]

Amazing mutual respect from two great fighters. Even the hype of the build up doesn't get nasty and personal like it does these days...the clip of them sat alongside each other, despite the animosity, is great. I love Eubank's rebuke to Benn butting in: "Let's have some Parliamentary Procedure here, shall we..?" Brilliant.

[@michaelwood3377]

Eubank is/was an amazing character. What humour and theatre he brought to the sport

[@kanerichards1543]

Hardest puncher he's an animal I'm in too much pain What a tremendous fighter he deserves it man Love these 2 legends

[@perfectlywild88]

The hug the ref gave Benn was heartwarming

[@deadarmd]

You've done enough pal

[@boxer786ful]

Amazing all round. What I love is the honesty after the fight. Eubank praising Benn what a animal biggest puncher ect and then Benn humble in defeat saying eubanks deserves it .

[@NialAdams]

The word ‘Legends’ is often overused but these two are truly the greatest British boxers of all time. Eubank had style grace and elegance. Benn was the toughest man I’ve ever seen in the ring; Heart of a Lion! Both true champions.

[@MarkFinnegan-h8k]

I watched the Benn McClelland fight as It happened and remember being stunned at Benn's win. Pretty much everybody had written him off and ashe was literally knocked through the ropes in round 1 I thought it was all over, as did everybody. That comeback was magical and a privilege to watch. They don't make em like that any longer, for real!!! ☹️

[@deadarmd]

Electrifying fighters both of them

[@suesmith3744]

It was a privilege to watch these two back in the day , true warriors , we can be proud of them both . A great era for boxing 🥊, hope Benn and Eubank Juniors can dish up something similar .

[@syddog44]

Eubank had a chin made of stone

[@Peter-dk4fz]

Such animosity but such respect , amazing stuff from 2 legends

[@nuttyrock6899]

I miss stuff like this. Not only were these two great athletes clashing with one another like two Warriors. But they displayed great sportsmanship and had nothing but great things to say about one another afterwards 🎉🎉🎉❤

[@itsme-ow1nn]

2 bad ass men. Street dogs that are down for anything. But show respect after the fight. Top blokes

[@LaStOnE_leFt]

[@karlholland2061]

Brilliant fight by 2 tough men ! Fair play to their comments after the fight , respect

[@bodypunchlewis]

Trench warfare at its best. Puncher versus the counter puncher. Incredible fight.

[@draft1643]

Brit fighters should get the respect shown to Mexican fighters. Nobody had more heart than Chris and Nigel here, they were both knocked silly multiple times but kept coming

[@frannydarko2698]

Knocked 7 shades of shite out of each other what a fight though and a privelige to watch them live..Awesome boxers..👊

[@francishegarty8087]

Hi Franny, a Collins fan here from Ireland, who saw him many times, including the Eubank 2nd fight. Your absolutely right about these Guys, 2 Awesome Fighters and to see them live, must have been some experience, as being there is just so different, you can feel the hair raising on the back of your neck. I also got to see Tyson fighting, MEN Arena, February 2000 V Francis, the fight itself wasn't great as it was short-lived but the Undercard was tasty with Hatton, Takaloo, Gomez and Calzaghe all in there. Calzaghe fought Starie here and in all honesty, it was a terrible fight with lots of booing, I felt sorry for Joe, he fought to win, Starie fought to survive. Much and all as I like Collins and Calzaghe, I'd sooner watch Benn's fights any day. All the best, take care.

[@francishegarty8087]

Just to add Franny Darko, while all these Guys, Benn, Eubank and Collins were fighting each other, they were filling out indoor Venues with capacities of 22K plus, and Football Stadiums with 25K, Collins V Eubank 2 and almost 50K for Benn V Eubank 2. Jones couldn't even dream of getting these sorts of Crowds, he fought many times in Venues which held less than 10K, and couldn't even sell it out, in his own Home Town. His return with Griffin in 97, was switched from Atlantic City, where the 1st fight took place and had a Capacity of 14K, to a Bingo Hall in Connecticut, which had a Measly Top Capacity of just 4 and a half Thousand fans, so much for his popularity. As Collins said mid 90s, while pleading for a fight with him, " Jones couldn't attract flies" and he was right. He should have got himself over to the UK or Ireland and fought in Venues with upwards of 40K plus, easily, and would have loved to see if he could handle these Guys as easily as he was beating up on Mandatories and lesser Class Guys. Sorry for the rant mate, all the best.

[@Troubadour1681]

I served in the same Battalion as Nigel Benn, 1 RRF. He had a few fights with a lad called George Jay, George was the combined services Light Heavyweight champion. I remember watching one of there fights on video at Aughnacloy. Good bloke George like. At the end of the Inter-Company boxing competition, there used to be a xtra fight, a lad came over to Ireland to fight Nigel, it got stopped after about 30 seconds. I was in X Coy, 4 Plt.

There was real hatred between the two back but showed mutual respect after the fight, one of the most brutal and violent fights in a long time.. Ben was a big puncher but Eubanks had a iron chin, even up a cruiserweight he took Carl Thompson’ best shots and didn’t budge!! Bought fought each other in their prime.. which hardly happens nowadays..two of the best British fighters of all time, both completely different in fighting styles which made for an exciting fight..
