Remember watching this live in a pub in Kensington, totally dumbfounded

as the ferocious torrent that was round 1 came to an end, it was utterly inconceiveable that the match would go on to last not another, not 3 not 4 but another 9 rounds ........ and what's more, end in Benn's favour and in such terrible tragedy

the most brutal fight i've ever seen:

My favourite has to be Corrales v Castillo.

Round 10 is the greatest round of boxing ever and will never be topped.

With the circumstances it doesnt feel right to say it, but that was the greatest fight I have witnessed. Staggering.

yes Plus Froch is able to conduct a decent interview instead of saying no-wat-i-mean every other word.

1st round of Hearns vs Marvellous Marvin was the best of all time.
1st round of Ali vs Liston, 1st meeting is amazing to watch
Sugar Ray Leonard vs Roberto Duran is pretty good too

Watson ended up in a punctuation device? you mean a 'coma'? but yes, i'm surprised doctorsizzle didn't know this already.

Yesterday was the first time I'd heard of him. He came across with a good professional attitude and will gain a lot of fans if yesterday was anything to go by. Will look out for him in the future.

yep Froch Vs. Pascal was a great honest fight



closing moments of eubank watson just awful
his head certainly tawnged back on those ropes
and the way the ref leads him into the ring is just so chilling to watch frown

Agreed. No idea why the ref. did not stop it at that point. No idea how much difference it would have made, but still???

Agreed. As I posted in the Khan fight thread in the sports forum, I can't remember the last time a fight had me out of my seat, yelling at the TV. Best fight I've seen in a long, long time. I've followed Froch for a while, I reckon he's got what it takes.
